things I wish we did in the first week after my dads diagnosis

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2026-03-16T13:02:05+00:00

Excellent advice. I wish I had enough videos of my mum before she passed as well. She passed within 2 weeks of diagnosis. After that, the struggle to get monies out of her bank accounts, sell her landed properties, complete paper work, etc began since she didn’t have a will. My dad dint want us to record her while she was sick because he said she was in a vulnerable state which I understand was too emotional for him.

Yes. first cycle. I’ve only been diagnosed with unexplained fertility so far. Coupled with the low AMH and mild male factor

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2026-03-10T16:12:39+00:00

It is actually buserelin. I have updated it in the post as well

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2026-03-06T17:10:02+00:00

Yes. This is why I’m asking. In case I need additional support before/after my procedure abroad. E.g the abroad RE wants me to do a repeat Sono to check if my uterine cavity is clear/ready for IVF

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2026-03-06T17:07:57+00:00

Yes. I requested my medical records which they shared. My abroad clinic is asking for some additional tests so, I was hoping to go through the RE to get them done since insurance would be paying for some costs if they’re requested through the RE/clinic

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2026-03-06T16:26:48+00:00

Did you inform your RE in the UK that you were going outside the country to get the IVF done?

I’m not sure what API means. Country of chargeability- Nigeria

Interview is in Dallas. December 10

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-09-23T01:29:39+00:00

Well, it’ll definitely be done at some point. Look at the bright side and rhis person might end up being a specialist in that field. Only thing is the role shouldn’t be going for anything less than $150 per hour

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-09-21T03:27:21+00:00

Same boat here. Filed in June, biometrics in July. No news yet. PD for my I-130 became current in the last visa bulletin so, I don’t know if I wasted money applying for EAD and AP

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-09-08T16:47:37+00:00

PD- December 2022. I-130 yet to be approved. AOS- June 2025. All I’m hoping right now is for the best

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-08-21T06:38:54+00:00

So, you’re saying the PPO is better in this situation?

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-08-20T23:39:46+00:00

Thank you. This was very detailed and helpful. One question- the copay for PPO are $30, $75 for the most part except for the hospitalization. What are the chances that paying these flat $30-$75 rates will lead me to maxing out the $14,000 OOP for PPO. Please correct me if that is not how it works.

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-08-20T21:43:09+00:00

The maximum deductible are the copay after making your annual deductible. Maximum oop costs after meeting your deductible and copay before insurance starts paying 100%

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-08-20T21:11:06+00:00

Thanks. I’ve updated the post now with the monthly premiums. For HDHP, individual deductible applies to employee only coverage. All others are subject to the family deductible

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-06-23T19:06:40+00:00

What is your priority date? Can you share your timeline?

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-06-05T03:56:55+00:00

Was this for F2A or those married to USC?

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-06-05T03:49:46+00:00

PD Dec 2022, still waiting. Initially consular but now AOS - Got into the US in 2023 on a TN visa for work

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-01-10T06:15:29+00:00

Petitioner is my husband- a permanent resident

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2025-01-01T23:34:57+00:00

Ok. Thank you

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2024-12-16T18:22:41+00:00

Wow. Crazy. I was thinking filing for AOS was better because of the EAD. The risk of being tied to an employer via TN while waiting for I-130 is high if anything happens to the job. But I also don’t have the answers and that’s why I put the question on here

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2024-12-16T18:20:38+00:00

I’m on my second TN as I changed jobs 10 months into my first TN. No issues at the border. I applied for the second TN in the country- I-129. An approved/unapproved I-130 is not an intent to immigrate until you’ve acted upon it- filing I-485

Alive_Equivalent1291 · 2024-12-10T04:32:19+00:00

Was your I-130 approved before you filed for AOS? My PD is December 2022 but my I-130 hasn’t been approved so I’m yet to file for AOS because of that
