Maybe with good travel history, they might give 1-year multiple entries.

one year used to be the standard, or so I thought. I got one year multiple entry in February.

pufframmy:
pickup my PAssport today[b] 3 months given[/b]
Wish the rest of you awaiting result a successful one

is it that they no longer give 1 year?
Thought the standard was 1 year.

Depend on your CV because if you are a graduate it will be base on what you study.... But if you are not a graduate it will be a normal job, like chef, cleaner sales assistant secretary.. Alot of job just depend on the one you really need
And the visa takes 4 weeks to be approved

scam alert!!!!

Akerewe:
U can liquidate it anytime subject to buyer's availability nd it's backed by d full faith of the federal government of Nigeria

oh okay. When is the next one coming, so that I can be prepared?

Akerewe:

please, how Secure is this sukuk ?
Can it be liquidated at anytime?

meljoe:

oh okay

meljoe:
Good morning everyone , I just got back

For those who intend to travel soon ,
I used my vaccination card and I didn’t do any covid test both going and coming

I got my PTA from Uba

I was given cash in Euro lol
You know what that means lol

I used train to Italy and train back to France

Thanks to everyone that helped me out , I’m also here to help someone out too

I would think it is cheaper and shorter traveling by air?

RaptObserver:
I think it was just panic attack. Bandits usually operate in the late evening before the day is fully dark. Probably they were armed robbers.

you mean they have a specific period of the day they operate? They don’t come out I’m the mornings and at other times of the day?

Can one use investment certificates or letters such as mutual funds, treasury bills to show ties to your country or proof of funds?

dehiero:
If they somehow found their way here like someone said, then I guess everyone is guilty..

how is everyone guilty? Na everybody here wan go born? it’s becoming stressful to get visa as a Nigerian. Why

Thank God I got mine before they started all these rubbish. If they are refusing to give ladies because they suspect they want to go for birth tourism, are guys pregnant as well?

Please, at VSF, do I have the option of filling an address different from my present residential address where I would want my passport to be mailed to?

mialate:
Yes you can.

ok, thank you.

Hello people, please is your travel insurance to cover only your duration of travel? Eg you pay for 10 days travel insurance if you are going for 10 days?

nedekid:
Could this be our very own prominent nairalander that likes to travel and also cook? Hmm, if you know you know.
Meanwhile, I don't understand why a Nigerian will take his/her hard earned money in fx, buy ticket, book hotel, to go stay in a 8th rate country naija is hundred time better than. Don't just get it.

those places are better than Nigeria when you talk of tourism. That’s why you find whites flocking there. Nigeria ugly well well.

Please, when is the next sukuk bond coming out?

Gentlesoul3268:
Congratulations DCloveth

I most say you are destined to got France visa as a first timer ... I chop another second breakfast today when I got my passport back from UPS.

I was denied tourist visa on February this year, so I opted for conference and did my biometric on Monday got my passport back today same justification matter and not sure if I will leave the Schengen territory

First timer traveler only travel to South Africa

NB first timer traveler is a game of luck

I think he has a UK visa. That might have tilted the decision in his favor.

I arrived from Dubai yesterday , 02/04/2022 with Qatar airways with a stop over at DOHA

I checked in three bags from from Dubai.

On getting to Lagos, after I had already claimed two bags at the baggage section, I heard my name while waiting for the 3rd bag.

When I went to meet the NACHO staff that called my name, he handed me a paper(with a Qatar airways logo), claiming that my 3rd bag was missing in transit and they were tracking it and will call me within 24 hours when the might have found it.

Now, I’m confused because, I think I’m supposed to register a missing bag claim by myself, but the airport nacho staff is claiming that Qatar airways noticed that my bag was missing and sent a notice in advance.I am finding this difficult to believe.
Please, I’ll appreciate if anyone who as been through this can help me out.

Mods, I’ll appreciate if this can be moved to front page for better input. Thank you.

ezenwa28:
Bros can you get work permit with visa emirates did for you I thought they do only for tourist if you want to stay back and look for job it would be difficult to change it to work visa please ask questions well before using emirates

where did I say I was going there to work? Maybe you quoted the wrong person?

Nchabuomo:
Hi everyone,

So am looking to travel to Thailand for summer. Is there anything I should be aware of as a Nigerian passport holder? Thanks

please, how did you process the visa? What were the requirements? Thailand is one of my dream destinations.

hostsleek:
today makes it 21 days I submitted... still keeping my fingers crossed. Does applying early for a visa say travel date is 1st of June too early. would the embassy delay processing time.

I hope it’s 21 business days and not calendar days you’ve been counting.

Sanchez01:
Two million might be enough to sustain you for a year and half if you want to pursue a career in tech, only possibly if you are a minimalist and not banking on paying rent from that money. Say feeding, data and a few other things, but definitely not rent.


I switched from telecommunication to tech at 30+ and I do not regret it one bit. You are not old at 30. Some say life begins when you have an awakening, be at 40, 50 or 70. The question is whether or not you are ready to chase your dream.


Answer these questions, not necessarily publicly:

1. What part of tech are you eyeing?
2. Do you have a good laptop (as I know every part of tech requires one)?
3. How cheap or expensive is your rent? If you take out your rent from N2m, what is left?
4. Take out a data budget for a year and see how much is left.
5. Calculate your feeding on a monthly basis, multiply by 18 months and see what is left.
6. You need to set aside some money for emergencies. How much are you willing to spare?
7. How much do you spend on utilities monthly (electricity, waste, gas and water)?
8. If the answer to your number 2 is no, find out if whatever is left can afford a decent laptop that won't freeze or crash while you learn your new tech skill.
9. Finally, can your side hustle run conveniently even when you learn your tech skill?


This isn't exactly bad. If you don't womanize, club and party hard, just learn idea of stocking up monthly. Go minimal. Don't eat out. Always cook.


You could. Or not...
[b][/b]
Note that picking up a tech skill doesn't mean you will get a job next month. Depending on the skill and how fast you learn, you might not be able to successfully get a job until you learn the ropes, not fully but decently. I'd say 18 months, if you are a fast learner. Say the basic role in the industry.

PS: DON'T PAY FOR TECH SKILL! If someone has told you to pay to learn, depending on the area, there are tons of resource materials, YouTube channels and resource websites that you can leverage on to up your tech skills.

what of stuffs like data science?

HRprof:
It takes 21 days if you are applying for French visa for the first time but if otherwise it will come out within 7 days because your information is already in their database.

but some first timers here got a decision within 3-5 days here even though they weren’t given the visa.

This is not true Joe when they say it’s 5 hours especially for international flight, it’s usually 5 hours

Please, are there places in the airport where I can print my Covid 19 test result as they seem to want a physical copy.
I might not be able to print a copy since I will be receiving my test results late in the night.

Who has traveled with Qatar air recently? How is their Covid protocol like?

I thought the carnival was shifted to April because of COVID.

I applied for a visa to attend this carnival. Got the visa but later developed cold feet. Just found last week that it was shifted to April.I will visit Brazil before the year runs out though.
Planning on visiting in December. Is that a good time to visit?
How I fit catch one of those beautiful Brazilian chicks ?

Chai I’m bout to cancel mine so I don’t lose all my money

there’s currently a restriction for applicants under the age of 36years. Got this info from Wakanow.
They are a reputable firm. I don’t think they will be telling a lie

SoloD94:
That work permit thing seemed like a scam that targeted Nigerians as you can see with the video circulating. I did my visit visa myself finally through emirates and got it in 2 days. Anything visa based with the way things are going with these agents these day best to do all visas yourself. Read diligently and follow the rule. No one should deny you visa if you meet the basic criteria. (every single one of the basic requirement)

please, how much did Emirates charge you? And must you travel with the airline if they process visa for you?
