Good day folks. I have done my capturing at Ikoyi passport office. Are there numbers one can dial for questions or enquiries about date of collection? I heard from someone that most times, it's not advisable to wait for their messages before collection as this could take time. I learnt that most times they contact passport owners very late.

MrDexter:


Please which one is the acknowledgement form?

MrDexter:
Hello Nairalanders, good day. Please I want to go to Ikoyi to submit my documents and do the capturing, I have the guarantors form filled already but it hasnt been stamped. Can I get where to stamp it in Ikoyi too?

dammygoody:

It looks like the payment receipt but it's titled acknowledgement slip. You print it online on the NIS portal as well as your application form and payment receipt.

Yes, there is notary office /court in the compound, they stamp for NGN500

dammygoody:

Yes there are,
1. Contact them on twitter @nigimmigration they will help you check if your passport is ready, but from my experience, after they confirmed it was ready for collection, I asked them about the message and they were like it's important to get the message before going.
2. Try servicom lines

Remson23:


Thank you for the response. please do you know any of the servicom lines linked to Ikoyi passport office?

I finally went as advised ! My journey that day wasn’t really easy due to my passport is having 1yr and 3 months validity on it ... the cue was so long but as a smart Lagos guy I smuggled myself in.. got to servicom desk they kept telling me it’s difficult to renew passport that has more than 6 months validity they directed me to so many offices ... I met with Several PCO, they kept on frustrating me ..The first one I met told me it will be done In Abuja lol, I knew what they were after, they wanted me to outsource the process to them. I then remembered I had a contact in the office, I pulled a call across to her and Lo behold she was a top rank officer that was even going to do the final approval ... After doing the whole servicom procedure, she took the file and went to get it approved by appending her signature with some write up ... and then I submitted successfully... I would wait for Biometric and capturing SMS in few days to come... it’s wasn’t complicated .. I’m happy to have taken the bold steps... came out and still saw people I met before I entered struggling with number. .. I will keep the house updated !
