Thanks for this piece of information.
And for the records, it does help someone.

Amanee:
Having gone through the process of authentication at the MOE and MFA by proxy, I'm here to debunk a few myths:

Student transcripts
Original student transcript the one with Not for official use is actually accepted at both ministries. I used my student transcript because I was not ready for the stress of getting the original ready in a short time and it was accepted.

Not just anyone can get your documents authenticated For four reasons:
1)The process of authentication requires the original of some very sensitive documents:
-Waec certificate
-Birth certificate
-Transcript
-Degree certificate

If you are like me that consider these documents highly sensitive, you obviously cannot leave the handling of these documents to strangers.

2) The workers of MOE derive joy in frustrating the efforts of people getting their documents authenticated by proxy so the process can be tasking and time consuming. You need someone trusted to do the follow up and running around because it is not a smooth ride at all.

3)The person also has to know what an authenticated document looks like so agents don't present you with fake authentication (yes, there's such a thing). For instance, the MOE first gave my representative an unsealed eligibility letter. He had to return it and ask for it to be sealed.

4)The person may charge you lots of money because like I said before, the process is time consuming and stressful. If you can entrust your money to strangers, by all means pay and hope for the best. The cost of authentication for me was about 30k and that didn't even cover the running around my friend did, plus printing as compared to when you do it yourself at the MOE with N300 per document and N800 per page at the MFA.

P.s: If you can avoid getting the documents authenticated by proxy, please do because it is faster, cheaper and easier when you do it yourself.

You need passport pictures
When you're sending your documents to someone, please remember to add passport pictures like 3-4 and also make three photocopies of each documents.

Laminated certificates
There's no need to delaminate your certificate before sending. Whoever is authenticating will tear a piece of the lamination from behind and sign.

Use a trusted courier to send your documents
I used GIG logistics to send my documents to Abuja and it took three days. They charged 4300 from their Jibowu office to Abuja and I feel it was worth it. Please don't entrust your certificates to drivers because you want to cut cost, it may end in premium tears.

I hope this helps someone

University of Konstanz.
Are you interested or know anyone who is?

Fatalveli:
Your friend is in which UnI

Try University of Jagiellonian, I got mine already without legalization of documents.
Though I am not sure if their application period is still open.

Alex246:
Pls am new here... Does anyone know any school in Poland that gives admission first before u legalize ur documents.

Hello Guys, I need your assistance.

A friend in Germany is doing an Ethnographic Language Research and seeks to interview someone with good knowledge of multiple languages.
For instance, someone who speaks at least one indigenous Nigerian language(s) plus English and also has a B1 proficiency in German or can at least hold a conversation in the language and of course he/she should also reside in Germany.

Kindly contact me if you happen to be one or know someone who is, thank you.

How do you intend to do this, are the MOE & MFA open for legalization in Abuja now?

courageonyekwel:
Hey guys, I've been reading all you guys have been saying, please what exactly are the documents I will legalise for undergraduate so I can go do them tomorrow

Shogun200:
congrats, pls did you submit eligibility certificate or proof while applying for the programme. Thanks for your response.

No they didn't. You submit that & every other relevant documents after you have been admitted. You will be informed of the documents to submit.
Just so you know, the next round of application for this program starts on 15th June. Thereafter, there will be an interview to assess your eligibility.

oghoyaM:
Yes. I guess we all have to wait till after the lockdown for legalization.

That's good, I guess you passed your interview too. Congratulations.

oghoyaM:
Congratulations to us. See you in Krakow.

Thanks.

Are you going to Jagiellonian University too?

Jaycew:
That so?
You'll be fine jare.
They'll be resume before then.

I do hope so too.

How about your applications any updates yet?

Jaycew:
I'm not sure they are open for legalization of documents.
What's the deadline for your submission?

The deadline is 24th July.

Hello guys. I have been granted admission into Jagiellonian University in Kraków.
The next phase is to forward my Authenticated & Legalized documents to them.

Considering this CoVid19 Lockdown, Pls, does anyone have an idea on how to get my documents Authenticated at the Ministry of Education(MOE) and Legalized at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs(MFA).??

I welcome all your kind suggestions. Thanks

Thanks for your suggestions.

However, I can't forward any documents to them anymore as application deadline has passed (15th Nov.) & it was expressly stated that "any application that is incomplete or not in due form before the application deadline would be excluded from the admission process". So I really need another good reason that would be acceptable.

Though I could contact the course coordinator as suggested.




[quote author=Odedenshi1 post=84386006]I do not have the requested format, what I have is a word of advice. I would suggest you address the rejection by ensuring that, all the pages of your transcript are certified and writing to them stating that it was an oversight on your part.

You could also get in touch with the course coordinator to seek his/her advice/guidance. My one cent, all the best.

Hello guys,

Pls I need urgent assistance! who has got the format for Contesting Admission Rejection?

I just got a Rejection Letter from Mannheim University.
Their reason is that I didn't certify all the pages of the copy of my Transcript.
Meanwhile, that's the same format I used to apply for other schools through Uni-assist last winter semester & it wasn't rejected.

Pls, how do I go about this appeal because they have given me 1 month to do so.

I am interested this collaboration.
Kindly send a PM

OdiEma:
Greetings Everyone.
Please for Abuja Summer hopefuls that want to send documents to Uni Assist... Contact me so we can send together.


Also for FH Soest hopeful, please download the consent form so they can send your Admission letter via email... If not it will be normal mail that will take a long time.

All the best everyone

Good morning guys

Pls I would like to get in touch, if you're traveling soon or if you know anyone traveling before 15th of November.

I wish to send some admission documents to a friend in Germany.

Urgent! Urgent!! Urgent!!!

sthillz:
She's not your step sister but your half sister since you share a biological parent

I would suggest adding a letter from your dad explaining he's both your dad

@sthillz...your correction is welcomed...Thank God say this no be IELTS Writing oo

- Concerning your suggestion, I will also add that to the list of documents to prove my relationship with my half sister..

Pls, More suggestions are welcomed guys
ie. How do I explain/prove my relationship with My half sister (with the same father) who is a canadian citizen?

Flaj:
I'm guessing she's your half sibling. Is it just your Dad's first name or his name altogether that isn't on the certificate? You can both do a declaration of age at NPC and that will contain the names of the parents.

Thanks for your Response...

- Yes she is my half Sister and I want to claim extra points with that...
- It's just our Dad's first name that is not in either certificates. His surname is present in both Birth Certificates...
- Okay, the age declaration at NPC is a good suggestion. However, does that mean mine alone will be enough, because my sister resides in Canada presently and would not be arriving Nigeria anytime soon...

What do you guys advice?

 Long Post Alert[i][/i]

This is officially my first post on this platform. I have been a silent Reader and have also gained immensely from the plethora of questions and subsequent answers provided. You’re all wonderful‼!

If only our Country (Nigeria) could emulate the brotherhood/sisterhood deeds being exhibited here, I’m very sure this country will be very far ahead of where it is right now and we wouldn’t be so keen on seeking ways to escape this hell hole we found ourselves.

It is my expectation that everyone who has begun this process will achieve the ultimate Goal‼!

Firstly, let me say a big CONGRATULATION to everyone who recently aced their IELTS. Know that the journey continues with the next phase (i.e. aiming for ITA). For those who didn’t get their desired result, I empathize with you & I can’t imagine your pain & disappointments. All I can say to you is NEVER GIVE UP. A little more effort & you shall overcome the hurdle of IELTS.

Soon I will document my humble advise/tips on how I passed my IELTS in my first attempt to help those finding it hard doing so‼!

 My Question

I wish to claim points with my step-sister who is a Canadian citizen and I need your advice on how to go about it…
Though I know the required documents to provide, in fact my step-sister has sent hers to me:

1. Citizenship Certificate (to show Canadian citizenship)
2. Utility bill (to show current residency in Canada)
3. Birth Certificate (to show our relationship).

*Herein lies my concern & question;

For those who have claimed points for sibling in Canada & have also successfully applied & gotten their PPR, how did you use the Birth Certificate to prove this relationship?

I’m asking because the birth certificate of my step-sister shares the same surname as mine, but neither her certificate nor mine, carries the first name of our shared parent (i.e. our Dad).

I want to know if these birth certificates (with just the same surname) would be good enough to prove our relationship or you provided additional documents to aid your application.

*I really need opinions/answers from everyone, most especially those who have successfully claimed points for Sibling(s) in Canada*

israel007: Got an information this morning that Etisalat reduced their BIS subscription from 3000 monthly to 1500 (access to 10 web email accounts) and from 1500 monthly to 1000 (access to 1 email account).

I called their customer care and they confirmed this to be true! Their data is Unlimited but u can't video stream



To activate:
*499*1# - 1500/per month

*499*3# - 1000/per month

*meanwhile the recharge for two months and get one month free has stopped.

Enjoy


All other network should follow suit abeg

Please I would love to know which of the BIS Monthly plan(The 1500 or 1000)is unlimited as regards to Data Bundle?
Thanks...
