Alausa passport office: DIY Renewal
Applied online: June 8
Interviewed/Dropped forms: June 10
Received sms for capture: 11pm June 17
Captured: June 18
Picked up passport: Today, July 22

The printout had said to pick up passport in August but went today after seeing the posting from those who had picked up theirs. Passport was actually printed two weeks ago.

And now they have a sign at the office that says renewal take 3 weeks to be ready while fresh applications take 6 weeks.

I should be expecting my own next week if I should follow 3weeks for renewal. I captured for renewal 10yrs at alausa on July 5. What was your status online. Did it changed from approved to any other thing

emmadeking:

Every of my credential have same date except NIN(year of birth). Please how do I make the correction and what's the cost?

Poshdadiva:

In summary, you got no sms for passport collection?

Yes.

psalm68:

I also captured on Monday 19th of June at alausa.
The guy at the servicom desk said they will send a text when the passport is ready.

Your passport should be ready for pickup if there are no issues. Don’t wait for a text.

Honestly I don't know but I believe it can be changed. Check their site or better still chat with the online chat. The funds cannot be wasted like that.

Good day House. This information might help someone. I filled the form online and also made payment online for passport renewal. However on my passport payment slip, no interview date, so I decided to chat with the passport office online via the chat app. I was then given a link to book an appointment which I have done. So You don't just come to their office, you must book an appointment and print your appointment slip. Here is the link to book an appointment. Upon successful submission of payment you, Please visit https://appointments.immigration.gov.ng/ to schedule your appointment date.

I will like to update the house on my journey following DIY. Ikoyi Passport office. After booking an appointment and printing out my appointment slip with all necessary document I proceeded to Ikoyi Passport office. Went straight to the servicom unit to submit my application document but I was initially turned down by the PCO. That they will be ready for me next week Wednesday. After sitting at their office for like 30 minutes I went back to the PCO and told him I was on appointment and showed him my appointment slip before he agreed to attend to me. Filled their own form at the servicom unit and then began the process of documentation. In the following order
1. Servicom
2. Re-issue
3. Socket & Account
4. Enrollment
5. Capturing
6. Servicom

I carried the file opened for me from one office to the other, until I finally captured same day, which was yesterday 22 nd July, 2021. I finally submitted my file back to Servicom after capturing. I spent the whole day at the passport office.

Finally got captured on Thursday and will be picking up my passport on Monday next week. This was after having gone the DIY way and making no headway since the 17th of june. So discovering that the only language/motivation being understood by the NIS officers was money, I quickly obliged them and everything was expressly done.
Note: Time factor so as to meet a deadline was why I went ahead to go the money way.

It can be corrected but you need to know someone that works there at NIS and will cost you some money. They usually charge upto 10-15k depending on your location cuz they say it's only done from Abuja HQ

start now. It is possible as u dnt need the passport urgently. We are in july. Start now. Diy

I appreciate

Port Harcourt office is full of witches and wizards that probably serve satan because I can not adequately explain the root of wickedness at work in their hearts.

Starting with officials Kelechi, Favour, Chioma, Ib, Josh and the main fat and dark skinned witches seated downstairs.

Yes I am calling your names one by one because all of you read this thread.

Please does renewal of passport require NIN?

I have DOB issues on my NIN and it is taking over 2 months to be rectified but I need to renew my international passport urgently. I want to do the 10 -year one.

Yes, as far as I know NIN is required for passport renewal these days. The form has a required entry fir NIN. And the NIN is printed on the passport.
