okay. great. pls get back to me.

I just contacted the embassy. They said they don't provide such exchange rate services. I'll advise that we just work with the official rate to avoid stories that touch.

Official rate as at when I was typing this is
1 EUR = 358.153 NGN
6,720.00 EUR = 2,406,785.33 NGN


Also, for guys who have been scheduled for an appointment with the embassy and have made the RP app fee payment before the RP app fee was increased, the woman I spoke with said it doesn't affect us. It only applies to peeps who made payment from July 29th wen d change was made.

@coelink. Wen b ur interview date..

@frankie and @emiflex. No worry, e go pure. Ur good news is on its way..

Migri response

Unfortunately we cannot help the situation much. We use the exchange rate of the day when we process that particular application. There is no general exchange rate that we’d use. If there is a huge difference in the exchange rate, we will take that into consideration. Hope this gave you some kind of an answer to your question.

I think the bolded gives an answer to the question. What we need to do is just work with latest official exchange rate. If by the time Migri is processing d docs and the diff btw the exchange rate for that day and conversion rate you used when the money was provided into ur account ain't too much, they won't consider it a big deal. However, if d diff is much, they'll likely inform you that the funds in ur account ain't enuf, prolly ur sponsor shud add more.

Let's just hope that the exchange rate on the day one's application is processed is much lesser than the rate used wen the funds was paid into one's account.

Experienced bosses in the house, your suggestions are needed here pls

My take on the issue that you guys should try and raise the amount in ur account to around 1.8m upwards towards 2m plus. However, let ur sponsor's account be well loaded such that they will know that even if the exchange rate goes up, the sponsor will still be able to take care of it.

For instance if ur sponsor still has a balance of 5m after transferring to you and the account is very active, they have the choice but to grant the RP.

Please attach to the application form an account statement showing that you have 6,720 euros in your bank account. You must have the necessary funds in your personal bank account. Sponsorship agreements provided by relatives, friends or employers are not acceptable, as the funds must have already been transferred to your bank account. For studies lasting less than one year you must have in your account an amount equivalent to 560 euros for each month of residence in Finland.
If you do not have the above-mentioned amount in your account, please attach to the application written evidence of the benefits provided by your educational institution. If you have been awarded a grant or scholarship by the government, an organisation or an educational institution, please attach the grant or scholarship decision to the application form. An account statement will not be necessary if the grant or scholarship is sufficient to support your stay in Finland
You must present the originals of all documents when submitting your application,

@bolded, I was granted a Scholarship by a senator in my constituency, I have the letter with the FGN letter headed with house of senate seal. do I need to still provide the statement or I can use the scholarship letter only as stated above?

Anyone here already in Espoo who can help with accommodation because the one month private rental I arranged was cancelled as I was asked to pay six month rent as he could no longer rent for just a month. I am already in Finland, Espoo city and I am not finding it funny.

I had a similar challenge. my accommodation was cancelled because I couldn't pay on time. and I was delaying payment because my application wasn't yet concluded. but once I got a positive decision, i immediately informed my tutor student about my accommodation challenge and within six hours, I was given another accommodation. Am now in Kuopio.

Send a mail and chat your tutor student, they will help you.
