I will look at that option. Small claims has more teeth than Ombud so I dey think the former.

It's actually a well known agency with offices around the world. It's the bloody useless IT firm that I worked for is 'small'.

If I decide to take legal action, will it be the firm or the agency?
@bolded, does it start with i and end with i?

HRprof:
Don't say what you are not sure of. Issuing tourist visa is no for now but those who have tourist visa can travel with it.
Embassy role does not apply to immigration at the board. People have been travelling for visit to France for those whose visa has not expired.
France does not issue "tourist visa". They issue short stay visa which is valid for tourism, business trips or family visit. Tourists from outside the EU are not allowed. Don't waste your time.
As per business trips/family visit, you will need to prove the urgency of your visit at the PoE before you can be allowed in.

I guess that's where those of us here with experience can give proper advice to those coming in, so they know what to expect and the best way to sort out their plans...nigerians need to mentor more nigerians and not want to just outshine each other...or show off how good their lives are...
Like opening accounts with all the "old school" banks and running away from the "new school" banks, yeah? grin

With the recent terrorists attacks in France, hope it would not affect visa issuance to African countries
Not really.

If you are a muslim, you should expect more scrutiny.

Hello Guys,

I need help. Please my Study visa application was rejected. I don't know if anyone has been in this situation and how it resolved. I'd really appreciate any help I can get as I'm supposed to resume in November.
Why was it rejected?

Oga you are just lucky, DATAMAX has frustrated me from getting dividends.

They are now requesting for signature specimen from broker an CSCS
This shouldn't be difficult. When your broker takes the transfer form to CSCS, they should scan and send the acknowledged copy to you. Datamax will accept that even if they haven't gotten the original from CSCS.

Davide470 how easy is it getting a French work permit without schooling or doing masters in France.
Also are you a resident now
The 1-year Long Stay D Visa (Student) gives you the right to work - (officially 20hrs/wk, unofficially as much hours as you like). To renew it, you will need a Scolarité from your School which you cannot get if you are not schooling at the school.. Get my drift? Lol

Aside that, to get a work visa straight from Nigeria, you must be sponsored by a French company just like how the UK is, and that is almost as difficult as Buhari resigning from the Presidency.

Résident? As long as you have a long stay visa, you are a Résident wink

Rah I’ll just have to stick with attestation and hope for the best; quite difficult getting Birth Certificate without the old one.
Also, I’ve translated it but I was told I might have to legalise it at the Ministry Of Foreign Affairs also. How did you get yours done?
Attestation can fly but when it does not, then you will understand how frustrating it is and why you should have done the normal birth certificate.

My birth certificate was translated & stamped by Alliance F and it was accepted by the French bodies.

Thanks for your response sir.
But the only problem here for someone like me is that I was born before 1992 and NPC can only issue Birth Certificate to any person born in Nigeria after 1992, any person born before the 1992 can only get attestation of birth certificate from NPC.
Though I have a birth certificate issued to me few years ago by my local government when I misplaced the one I was using before,all my names on it is the same as my names on my passport.But I am thinking maybe they will not recognize it because it was issued by local government
Sir, can I use the local government issued own?
I was born before 1992 and I did a new birth certificate from NPC last year. I don't think the regulation is overly binding.

Maybe it was the fact that I already had an NPC birth cert and just needed a correction of name in other to finalise my permanent social security.

You can visit any NPC office, preferably the one at Surulere and liase with them.

Yh attestation is fine. I think the problem is translating it to french and authenticating it.
My advise: don't bank on Attestation. Get a Birth Cert. from NPC

Ace0010:
Has anyone translated and legalised their birth certificate? Heard it’s required for several processes there
It is required for many processes (Social Security, Ameli, Titre de Sejour renewal etc.) and ensure ALL the names on your birth certificate is the same as the ones on your passport, if not, you would have to do a new NPC birth certificate.

You can use Alliance Française to translate and ensure they certify it with their stamp. (On a good day, they also accept the English version)

Hello everyone.

How's the job market after Masters for someone that studied business?
How's schooling as a whole in France?
The job market is the same for any course. You finish, search and apply for jobs in your field, get called for an interview and get an offer.

Which travel insurance is best in Nigeria?

Between Aiico, Allianz and Zenith, which is best?

Thank you
There is really nothing special about any of them. Compare and go for the one that is affordable to you.

Don't mind them. It's nairaland admins. That's how they've been defrauding people since time immemorial.

If you're intelligent you will notice their monikers have been altered. They have altered everything from the database so that people will think they're old members.

This moniker was created this year but look at this

Bro...
Was the medical insurance really compulsory to get visa??
Or you they can allow you pay your bills yourself if you eventually fall sick
Health Insurance is compulsory to get your student visa. At least, as at then, don't know if things have changed now.

A travel insurance can suffice till you register in the French healthcare system (Ameli) that is 70% free or so.
