AmiableMosquito:
You may be right or wrong with your assertions. I visit the thread once in a while and comment on issues as they arise. I am less concerned about if he is an actual FIRS staff or not, whether he is a Nigerian or not. I am more concerned about anybody thinking being a FIRS staff exempts you from living on loans. It might be easier on those working outside the Abuja and Lagos area offices.

On this same forum, I posted payslips of more than 10 senior and junior officers in one federal organisation just to prove a point about salary. Many people think once you are a public servant or working in any of the B list agencies upward, you have AUTOMATICALLY risen above financial difficulties. That perception is very wrong.

Earning 400k in Abuja (for example) cannot still afford you a lot of luxury. You cannot live in certain areas, you cannot buy a car if you don't save aggressively for at least 24 months upwards. So what exactly does FIRS pay that makes it so mouth watering and makes the staff invincible to loans? The 400k FIRS TOs are earning in 2025 is what DPR administrative staff (GT) were earning in 2018. Compare the cost of goods, rent, fuel, school fees, services, etc then vs now.

A lot of commercial banks increased staff salary by 80-100% recently. You are likely to earn higher as an Executive Trainee in a bank than you will as a Tax Officer II in FIRS. 80% of MTN Nigeria staff earn above 1m monthly.

I can confidently place a bet that if you put down ten random paystubs of FIRS employees, at least 3-4 will be servicing a loan. Is FIRS salary okay? Yes. Is it in the league of the top 6 agencies in Nigeria with great welfare package? No. Can FIRS do better? Yes

I bow to superior argument. I am therefore sorry if my earlier post seems like I glorified MohIsah above any other person. I am keen on the facts, not the side talks. I WON'T COMMENT ON THIS FIRS DISCUSSION AGAIN. Thanks

You're a wise man. You know your Onion. If you must argue, pls, know your facts.

Mohisah:
He's an Adamawa man. Sarkin Adamawa letter is very useful

He's from Kebbi.

Pls, is FCT-IRS planning to recruit after Salah?

Shinzokiyotake:
so exams no screening just straight APL ?

Some persons have written exams and some done with screening already. Moreso, if you have a strong connect, the above mentioned are nothing but mere formalities.

Classiqtech:
Could this be a sign that Custom Screening/Exam Shortlist is around the corner?

Lately the platform has been quiet.
From 1st week of March APLs will be flying everywhere. I pray we are beneficiaries of APLs that would come out by March. Amen.[color=#006600][/color]

GOOD EVENING, HOUSE.
PLS, WHAT'S THE GOVT JOB A COMMISSIONER IN FCC CAN GET SOMEONE WITHIN ABUJA?

NOTE: HE DOESN'T WANT ME TO WORK OUTSIDE ABUJA. I NEED IDEAS OF GOVT AGENCIES WHICH WOULD RELEASE APL ON OR BEFORE NEXT MONTH ENDING SO I CAN PUSH. THANKS 🙏[color=#006600][/color]

These are slots Candidates which shared around June/July or but for Ordinary Regular applicants FIRS yet to send invitation for interview. Very soon mail will reach applicants.[/color][color=#006600]

Okay. For clarification sake, these slots candidates is it replacement form (slot) or direct entry like regular applicants?

Asking so that some persons that submitted through their commissioners @ FCC can be of expectant. Thanks 🙏

Does it mean that FIRS has started issuing APLs?
