Feedback on my visit to Port Harcourt office today, was at the NIS office by past eight but they didn't start work till 10.am. Saw officers before then running around and attending to their clients. Met an officer to make inquiries about not having being called for interview & capturing despite having submitted my application since last week Thursday. He was surprised and told me I should have been sent a text, asked about the servicom desk and he told me they weren't on seat as at then (past . Met another officer who took down our names (those for interview) to go confirm if they were on their list. Met the officer after having waited for a while and he told me my name wasn't on their list and I should contact the officer assisting me and was asked to leave their office. I was surprised, called the NIS complaint number for assistance, they weren't helpful as I expected. Told me to go to the servicom desk but the NIS security officer at the entrance to the building kept preventing or willing to direct me, I was told by the officer on the phone from NIS complaint line to give the phone to the security at the entrance so as to speak with him. That didn't help cus the security gave back my phone to me ignoring the officer on the other end. The officer from the NIS complaint line told me to wait outside that he was going to get back to me. I waited for a couple of minutes without any feedback and i Just left disappointed ..

I'm more disappointed

Contact his via email, they can help

Please help me. I mistakenly selected FCT instead of Lagos for my 2 kids and I've paid. I didn't even noticed till my wife got to Ikoyi for biometric yesterday. The officer that attended to her said she should go to Abuja or repay. Is there no other way round like paying a token for a change of location?

Was at the Maitama Express Passport Center today by 8:45am.

Long story short by 12:05pm, I collected my new passport (renewal). No hassle, no extortion.

Very professional service

This country can work if our leaders actually want it to.

Please you still haven't shared with us how the whole process was conducted and cost so as to enable intending applicants know what to expect thanks ..

Passport Office: Alausa
Application Type: Passport Renewal

June 8: Applied online DIY; given interview date of Jun 16
June 10: Went to Passport office. Slight delay as servicom officer in charge wasn’t available. Finally arrived after an hour. Documents checked, additional forms filled, file created, and documents eventually dropped off after first stamping (old passport given back to me to hold). Told to wait for text message.
June 16: Went to ask how far. Told to come back when I get text message.
June 17 (11:39pm): Received SMS to come and capture
June 18: Arrived at Passport office for capture. File could not be found among those capturing that day. After much tossing up and down, I met one of the Ogas who asked one of the servicom desk officers to find the file. Another officer confirmed he’d received the list with my name on it for capture. Through God’s mercy and the Oga’s help, file was found in the same place that was checked three times before. They marched me directly to the capture room without staying on the queue in the waiting room. Finally captured. Confirmation slip said passport will be ready in August, but I’m sure it will be ready before then. Told to expect another SMS when the passport is ready.

Hope that helps.

Yes. Thank you. So Passport takes two months from the application date? How can I get it done within 3 weeks cos It’s urgent? I am new to this thread.

My passport was issued in 2017 with five years validity period. That means it is dated to expire in 2022. Does that mean the passport will expire at the end of this 2021/beginning of 2022 or till December 2022?


Please, I need clarification on this, thanks.

deeteeneey:
thank you. Is the full address of the Comptroller:

The Comptroller General of Immigration,
NIS HQ, Abuja.

Use the "Passport Control Officer" when writing the letter.

david290:
I don't know about the so called six weeks because it's a new directive that started this month. If you grease the right palms, though, I know of some people who captured in May and got theirs in June. If it's strictly DIY, however, 1st of next month makes it three months since I have been captured. My source confirmed they're still printing for February for people like us who did it the 'normal, normal' way. Did I also mention I paid a compulsory 5k unreceipted admin fee? In short, avoid DIY at the Ilorin Passport office.

Thank you.

Just got a message to come for capture at Maitama Express Passport Center.

Does anyone have an idea of when the Maitama express Center will reopen?

Don't you have day/month of expiration on there as well? It should.
