She might have probably been filing tax with it. As such, she will claim your child as a dependent and get more money. It doesnt have any effect tho but if you not confortable with that. Contact IRS ANd file a report

http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/How-Do-You-Report-Suspected-Tax-Fraud-Activity%3F

Fill form 14039 and your aunt will be contacted to return the money she claimed or might be arrested. Your choice tho

Please can you kindly share. My own story is that my sister told me she couldn't file taxes without including my son because I had him in her house ( Big fat lie) but unfortunately for me I believed. Didn't know my blood could do such. Fast forward 3 years I asked her to stop otherwise I would report her though it was a big fight she said she will.I feel betrayed. With my second, I hugged the SSN number to my chest.

I will look for the post and post shortly. Just know that it actually wont affect your baby now and in future but if you are not comfortable. you can report and they stop your sister automatically from using that SSN

favor, the para I mean was not to fight. maybe i didn't put it well. it just to let them know at the back of their mind that u don't like what they did .She opened her door because of her current motives. This kind of relatives won't look at your face if the hospital gives you a huge bill. They will leave you to carry your wahala or offer you medicaid.

This act is wrong and will always be wrong. I have hosted people and I know a SSN when it gets to my mail and I will never open such.

Wait till next year may after tax filing and see if your sis in law hasn't use the SSN.

Its actually won't affect the baby but you need to get consent from the parent before using it

Oh dear, something is definitely up. Check through Tvegas' posts, you will see a link he posted on how to check your baby's SSN history. Check to see if it has already been activated and call the appropriate authorities.

Don't fret or confront your aunty yet until you do your checks.

She will not know anything now until the aunt files her next tax.

The aunt will claim the baby as a dependent. It's won't affect the baby but if anyone is not comfortable with it, the host should respect that.

I actually had somone who asked me if I could use there baby SSN to file tax, I said No. Its addition kike $1000-1500 but I hate headache and won't shit the system.

Let me rant...
My host handed me an already opened envelop. Turns out it's my baby's SSN card.
I'm really pissed right now.

That's bull crap. I think I have a post about how to report any activity. You need to para, vex and shout for your host. Tell them you will involve the police and they should have it in mind that you will monitor the activity of the SSN. The person knew it was SSN and opened, wrote out the number and end up filing the next tax with it. . Voila !!

I will repost how to detect Ssn fraud.

Travel › Re: Considering Moving To The Houston Texas Area... Pro And Cons Please.... by zeezahbee(f): 4:58am On Aug 30, 2015*

edwina621:
Hello everyone, I currently live in the Nashville area. I am considering moving to Houston. I want to live in a bigger city with other Nigerians. I hear there is a lot of career opportunities in Houston. I work for the State of TN as a social worker for the Medicaid/Medicare program. Please can anyone living in the Houston area give me the pros and cons of residing in Houston? I would greatly appreciate it !

Are you single or married ? Send a Pm If you need help in moving.

The cons of living in Houston. I'll go through them first: It is hot here, and it is humid. We have summer days that will make you melt. Fortunately we have air conditioning everywhere. Unless you're a golfer or cyclist, you won't have to experience the heat unless you're going between your car and a building. I do hear they are plenty Nigerians but its just hyped, I rarely see them. Just 2-3 African stores and Resturant.

Traffic can be bad, but so is every major city. What we have are some bad drivers. They aren't the worst, but they are poorly trained. It is easy to get a license here.

Yes, we have no zoning here, but you really don't see new upscale development next to old ratty crackerboxes. We don't have trash strewn everywhere.

Oh, forget the University of Texas. Texas A&M University is the school to watch. We may not have the best coached football team, but it is a school of many proud traditions with friendly people.

The pros of living in Houston. First of all, there are people from everywhere here. Every nation on Earth is represented here, and their emigrants have probably opened a restaurant. Speaking of that, DINING. Few not much nigeria resturant. While we do have plenty of the chains here, most restaurants are family owned and have a great variety.

Housing is cheap here, renting or owning. Compared to the rest of the country, Houston is the cheapest major city (followed closely by Fort Worth)and look for a home in an area you'll like. If you want cheap food , rent and bill. Come to Houston. You can never be jobless.

I mentioned people from all over? For the most part, they're friendly too.

I could go on and on, but I need to hit the showers. Welcome to Houston!

a friend has an interview fo r 31st of this month,though he asked for an extention but d school gave him an i20 for spring with a letter,will he be interviewed and what are the chances of getting his visa

Tell your friend to cancel the upcoming interview and schedule for a day less than 120 days to spring resumption

Extension letter are only for a week or 2 and the school expects that there's no way your friend can make it to school because registration and classes have started.

He should look out for spring

Sim card is $0.01 on amazon and you can get 0.99 on eBay lol. But since you will be arriving and need it ASAP.you can get In a store for 10.

When you arrive fully, buy from a store for immediate use and activate.

Then buy another one for keep but don't activate it. When next you come, you can activate and use

A large bedroom including utility at $500 in a city.... they should be dancing and rejoicing.

Their mates that came straight to NYC are tasting serious mehmeh now. That's about $1100/mo here.

Talking about work on day one. I see lot of newcomers here trying to speed up things over night. I hope journey of 2-4 years won't be everlasting one for them.

Yeah, that's how cheap houses can be in Houston. Na even standard house oo. No be house with cats and rats like NY. I have learnt lesson on NL that helping is evil. I can't promise to even accommodate anyone because I hate insult. Am not so good in that aspect and I want my peace.

For those still searching accommodation, I pray you find breakthrough. It's always hard first few days. I could remember when I came and I had to contact few folks here but none showed concern. But if you got your money, you will find something.

You are right. Not everyone can accommodate another person indefinitely. Personally, I don't have a problem accommodating for up to 3 months. However, I wouldn't want to accommodate someone I don't know and who is out of status indefinitely. If the person in question is registered in school and still in status, then finding accommodation wouldn't be a problem.

So, what about the millions in the statement of accounts presented to the schools and embassy? Did the money disappear right after visa issuance? Many times, I begin to wonder if people think we are liars whenever we come here to advise people to be well prepared before coming to the U.S.A. With a poor preparation, a journey of 1 year may cost you 10 years.

Thumbs up, I really forgot to add that It will be hard to accommodate somone who doesn't have a source of living, Never enrolled, no Ssn. It's just gonna be hard.

Some people will say It's wickedness. I had a bad first 4days but since I got money to pay rent, I was able to sort out fast.

Advice to my people here, have your first year school fee even if Na community college and have your first year rent.

Lastly, no matter how hard you help people on NL, they will still come back here to insult you so I actually don't blame people who won't give a helping hand

It is unfortunate that I don't have single female friends in Houston otherwise, I would have approached them on behalf of the person. I believe it is a phase the person is going through and she will cone out of it stronger hopefully.

It still boils down to the same thing, not everyone can accommodate people. Go to the give birth thread, some people will eject a pregnant woman from their house.

You do not expect a fellow intl student to accommodate another person for months. If its for few day, then it's fine but for so long, then it's a NO no. I know the first 1 week is always hard because you need to get some things right.

I can allow anyone to stay with me for few days but for months, I can't.

There could be further notice if the person is sincere. She could approach a friend and explain her situation or even a member of her religious group if she is active and humble. In all, I wish her the best.

For those who are quick to judge people because of their present situation, kindly desist from such act and instead, be kind to all and grateful to God.

Seems the person is just arriving from Nig and might not be able to have any religious group or anything. What I advice just arriving is to have at least 3-6 mths rent till they are able to make friends and find a way out.

Nothing is free in America. Not everyone can to take people in their home for free.

Good Morning fellas
am so curious to know if the i 20 has changed and also, i transferred to a CC college, but the i 20 i received shows that my transfer is still pending, but the woman that issued it to me said is ok but i rejected it and walked away. My question is, will i have any problem with if i try to reenter in the US?

So you rejected it , so you want to be outta status right huh

It will always show pending for like 3-6 mths and reason is that you might probably be owning the other school and some other uscis/dhs issh.

You won't have any problem with it because when you are travelling , you need to notify your school nd they will print a new I-20 for you

This one is even an oncampus hosuing for the college and it spans for one year.
If i run, they wont see my break light again, they might even report me to the school, before they do, i would transfer

I dont even think i can sublet the apartment, cos they always do constant checkups on the students living the oncampus apartments.

Then sign a 3 months contract. Tell them you might be transferring

A question: As an F-1 student if i break a lease agreement of an apartment, like moving out of the house before the lease expires, what would be the penalty for that. Would i ever get my security deposit back?

F1 student or not, you break an agreement then it's a bad one

In Texas, if you break a lease, you will be made to pay for the remaining months and sometimes forfeit your deposit. The money is so much that you wont have any choice than to stay back or sublet the apartment.

If you move out of the house without notifying the leasing agent, it will go on your record and it will be so hard to get anOther apartment.

I don't know how it works in other states but I know breaking a lease is a huge game. My advice is sign. 3 mth or 6mths lease and you can move later in peace.

Hello all,

Pls i am applying for a student visa, its a short course in the US, my passport will expire in march 2016, my course starts in oct-nov. i don't really know the process of renewing my passport and i fear it would be a long process, and my visa interview is at the end of this month. Wud this be enough reason not to grant me visa? what wud be my best course of action?

Thanks

Go to the immigration office in your state. It takes less than 1 week to get a passport. I think it's now 25/27k. If you wanna do it yourself, it's 17k but could take forever.

So best bet is walk into the immigration office and talk to an officer.
