Just got my PPR today !! New to Nairaland. Been reading from thread 19.

Thanks to those guys that shared info.

Applied May 11. I didn't submit so much documents. This is my first application, so i just submitted what was required.

Context:

I have travelled to 7 countries on official purpose. I have a fully funded scholarship, i'm below 30, i also have so much international experience, in addition i had enough money to run the entire programme in my account ( my personal savings). [b][/b[b]]Documents i [/b]submitted:

1. Bank statement, 2. My SOP was quite long ( 3 pages ), i just detailed how my experiences, research will be of value to the Nigerian government. 3. Scholarship letter 4. e-mail of recommendation from a top minister in Canada. 5. all other required form.

Please note that i didn't submit any certificate or transcript, although i had a first class and graduated best in my faculty, i felt it wasn't needed. Some people are even submitting O'level result, and NYSC certificate, ( lol...for what ). I felt you don't need so much to convince the officer reviewing your application. In fact i had marriage certificate i didn't submit, cos i knew my SOP was so strong for anyone to argue. I only did upfront medicals in August, when i read on Nairaland that everyone was doing medicals.

I didn't really disturb them with emails, i felt they were so organized and it is always done in sequence. I sent them 1 mail per week.

So my question to the experienced guys here:

I want to submit my passport tomorrow, but i'm in-between submitting it to the Lagos office, since i applied in Lagos and stay in Lagos, or Abuja. I heard it is faster in Abuja. Please can someone help me with the steps. Thanks.

I pray God that favored me will favor you.
