What does this mean?

..you are to attempt all questions as accurately as possible as marks will be deducted for incorrect responses

Offpointng:
I happen to witness the incident, and I'd say both are at fault, there were just few cars bfr the soldier's bus which the police saw, it cost the police nothing to spare few minutes to allow the soldiers pass for sake of peace bfr stopping other cars, they might have been on orders and late coming is always punished in the military. And when they came down in rage to question the policemen, police men to were showing power and superiority hence reasons for the damages

The Soldiers were wrong to beat them and the Government also got greater blame for not fixing traffic light, in a saner clime the duty of Traffic Police is to ensure traffic light are obeyed strictly but this is 9ja

Spicylate:
yes

madri4u:
Does that means that those whose status is still showing assessment in progress are actually the once to receive the ODVI invite.

Ifeoba:


They are not interested in the travel history on the passport of the guarantor. Note the following:

1. The guarantor's passport must be valid (not expired)

2. Guarantor must give you photocopy of data page (page with photo, name, passport number, etc)

3. Guarantor must sign the guarantor's form

4. The physical presence of the guarantor is not needed

5. The guarantor must be 18 years and above

6. Of course, you can be your son's guarantor.

Hedgefunds:



KINDLY GO THERE AND CONFIRM EVERYTHING IS IN ORDER WITH YOUR FILE BEFORE YOUR CAPTURE DATE.

Hedgefunds:


Have you confirmed your NIN is validated?

It is Advisable to go before your capture date where you will interact and ask necessary questions .

Hi guys!! So I was at Alausa today for capturing, team DIY!! (I'm super grateful for this thread. Helped me a lot!) I'd try as much as possible to give details of steps I took before today, the events that transpired today so you don't make minor mistakes like I did today.

See ehn, if you know you are DIY, just make sure all your documents are intact (id give a list of required documents), duly stamped, no NIN or name issue whatsoever and I can assure you, it will be hassle free.

I had made payment since November last year, got an appointment date last December (find below all you need on the homepage to DIY https://passport.immigration.gov.ng/) but missed the day, so this February, I went back to reschedule.

I made a reschedule two weeks ago around 10th February and was given a date, 10th March, but that was too far for me, so I went back to the dates and saw today, 25th February was free (I didn't know how I missed out on the date initially) so I rescheduled again for today, meanwhile you have only 3 appointment scheduling attempts. I had used 2 and the third reschedule date, which was today, was my last attempt. I sha used one mind (the if I perish, I perish mind) and picked today's date.

Immediately I got a date, I downloaded the appointment slip and saved on my phone. I used my phone for the entire application process until the printing stage. (I'd advise you download each document and save on the go).

Mine was a fresh passport application so the following are the documents I took along:
*Application page (shows you have made payment, contains the information you filled online etc)
*Payment receipt (download this and print this too after making payment successfully)
*Guarantor form (available online. Download, print, fill and sign accordingly. Attach your guarantor's passport photograph, then get court stamp. I'd advise you go to a court near you to stamp, I did mine at Alausa today and I paid 2k for it. *Sobs*) Attach your guarantor's intl passport biodata page to the stamped form. My guarantor's intl passport would be expiring April this year and it was a source of worry to me that I was even looking for another guarantor, but I took the risk and apparently, it could be used since it's still valid. I took my guarantor's NIN too but it wasn't requested for, but still take yours along o, the anointing I carry might be different from yours, lol
*2 passport photograph of yours (I ended up using 1 though. Also, avoid getting to alausa before doing passport. 8 copies there is 1k as opposed to where I did mine at 8 copies for 500 naira, well except if money no be problem for you sha )
*Birth certificate ( photocopy and original. Please, I beg you, carry the original along o, carry the original of all your supporting documents along with you to avoid stories that touch the oesophagus)
*State of origin certificate (photocopy and original)
*NIN (photocopy and original)
*Appointment slip
*On getting to Alausa, before you even enter at all (I didn't know this, the guy that did my court stamp was the one who hinted me) ask the woman making photocopy outside that you want to buy passport application form. It's a 3 page form sold for 300 naira. Fill accordingly and attach your passport photograph. This is also one of the documents you'd be submitting, so after filling, add it to the other documents listed above.
*Letter to the PCO (Passport Control Officer) this is a handwritten letter on an A4 paper. There's no particular format for it (I know cos I asked some officers). Just harness your secondary school formal letter writing skills and address it to the Passport control officer stating that you are applying for an intl passport. Finish.

Next thing, in the immigration compound enter inside the building right in front of you (me I saw plenty people outside the building, under the canopy and panicked cos I didn't even know what to do or where to go. I went to sit down with those outside first before I was able to ask few people questions and they directed me, so don't be like me). When you enter the building, there is an officer or officers to your right on a reception like table. They are servicom. Move to them and tell them what you came for. They would ask for the application form ( I was lost for some minutes cos apparently, I had two application forms. The one downloaded online and the 3 page one I bought. What they need is the one you downloaded online. Give it to the officer and sit right in front of them till they call your name. Me I didn't know I was supposed to wait in front of them, I still carried myself back outside under canopy to sit . It wasn't until I asked another person again and they said I should go back to meet the officer that I was in the wrong place. As soon as I got there, she called my name and gave me back the form. That's how God saved me o. Could have been a different story if I was a minute late)

After returning the form to you, they then ask for your documents both photocopy and original. Your fate is determined starting from here. Make sure you go on your date of appointment gangan, if not, you'd be dismissed and told to go reschedule. Also, your documents, photocopy and original will be vetted here. Know your guarantor's full names and relationship to you o. They'd ask you at this point.

If you scale through, your original documents will be returned to you and you'd be given a file containing the photocopy after which you fill a book with some of your information. You'd then go to room where your documents will be vetted yet again and the file collected. You'll fill another book after which you'll be told to go wait under the canopy (the canopy that me I went to sit upon my arrival ) your names will be called via a public address system afterwards and your file given to you which shows you are ready for capturing. You wait your turn and you'd be later ushered into the capturing rooms. Your file will be collected again here for another vetting and if you have no issues, they'll give you your file and you capture, the capturing officer will then finally collect the file after everything and a print out containing your information and collection date given to you. If you have issues eg NIN, name arrangement etc, your file won't be given to you for capturing (they'd tell you the issue though and advise you)

I entered the immigration building today 25th February around 12:30pm, captured and left around past 4pm. My collection date is 8th March 2022 (I'm like shey na eye dey pain me abi na wetin I dey see cos it seems pretty early, lol). I'll keep you guys posted sha. Good luck to everyone awaiting this process. I hope this helps!

There are so many allowances and grants for shell staffs. Its a world class job.

MStar09:
Interesting read so far. Best of luck to everyone still in the race.

This thing reminds me of when I applied for Graduate Program at British American Tobacco in 2019.

I got a mail almost immediately for aptitude test. It was adaptive, meaning that the more questions you get, the harder the next one becomes till it's over. I got past this stage, to the telephone interview with one of their Recruiters in Romania.

I basically passed through all 5-6 stages of the recruitment, till the final stage which was an AC at their posh office in Ikoyi.

We were 8 in the final stage. 5 guys, 3 ladies.

Normal group discussion, individual presentation, one on one interview etc.

After everything, I didn't get any feedback from them until a month after. A regret mail.

I later got to find out from one of the other candidates that ONLY 1 person was chosen. And the guy at the time, had worked in Forensics, with KPMG Nigeria and in the US; international exposure basically.

Mehn! All that process and only 1 person was chosen at the end.

SU50:

PSVITA:




Yea !!!! you're correct but you're also funny , Testmi is not responsible for Local Content recruitment delay......

What position did you applied for?

PSVITA:

The next step is CBT test, the information I got is that it MAY be done online by an ICT company call Testmi.

PSVITA:

Ejb061286:

Let's stay calm... You may start preparing cos you will have 10 days on a count-down, if it drops to your favour...

MStar09:
