Newsflash!

Guys that are working on RP application need to move very fast because of the rumor concerning naira devaluation to an official rate of 1$ - N290 that will translate to 1€ - 350 or there about.

The drawback with this is that the required 6720€ - approx. 1.5M naira will become about 2.3M naira once naira is devalued officially.

Last bullet..... guys that have gotten their RP no dull o..m buy ticket ASAP and get some PTA from banks using the current official rate of 220N - 1€.

No dulling.....

jeffoe:
trying to book now then you would probably get July for your interview dAte. Cbn has debunked the news. But I hAve a feeling it could still happen.make them delay am reach August.

olabode89:


Is he your sponsor?

If yes.... Fine. ...

If No.... be ready to explain why your brother decided to make two (I presume large transactions into your account) deposits into your account.

Migri will go through your bank statement and ask you to provide information and details on deposits of over or around 100K in your account.

For those that are yet to submit their RP documents or have not started, Please if you don't have a job that pays more than 100K per month and if you have not worked for more than a year or you don't have a business with good returns and other documents required it is best you seek a sponsor that can provide the needed proof/source of income.

It is possible for one to have more than one sponsor if your siblings+parents are sposnoring you. In such a situation you will need an excellent explanation letter coupled with documents that supports their source of income.

To prevent long story from Migri when they ask for supplementary documents, If anyone is unsure about anything relating to the RP application.... explain the scenario and let peeps assist with the best way of going about it.

Last year I got a lot of assistance from the likes of iceberg54, Bunmmiech and my chief for Oulu I don forget him moniker.

SnazzyBaba:




Boss, pls I need ur auditing skill o. The source of my fund is my mum. She is transferring 300k from her account. The issue is that she is a pensioner and she has not received salary for six months but the savings comes from her rental properties.

Secondly, my sisters are also trying fund me with some money but their business is not registered.

I will appreciate ur giudiance!!!

2. His international Passport Datapage and Official ID
3. Letter of Sponsorship
4. 6 Months SOA
5. 6 Months Payslip

olabode89:


You will need a very good letter that explains your source of fund. You can state that you will be sponsored by your family comprising of your mum and sisters. Explain that it is a common practice in Nigeria for various members of one family to contribute towards the education of a member of a family. To avoid complications state that the source of your mum's income is through her properties. Include documents such as documents showing ownership of the property, rental agreements (if available), copies of receipt issued to tenants (and make reference to inflow into her bank account if payment was made through the bank).

Also state that the source of your sisters income is through trade. Explain that most small-sized businesses in Nigeria are not registered. You might have to make reference to inflows in their bank account and also explain if most of their sales are cash sales.

jkels:

Please, the documents of sponsor that is the payment slips and other stuffs did you send the originals or the phtocpy? if photo copy, did you notarize them in a notary public? thirdly,did you send your payment slip?
