Travel › Re: Cost Of A Nigeria International Passport by LetsTravel: 1:08pm On Apr 08, 2024
finesthaykay:
No matching application status found for application number is the response I'm getting now while trying to track my passport. I tracked it last week but here is the current feedback I'm getting on the site.
I recommend you check at the NIS center you did the registration it might be ready for collection. I googled the error and someone on Nairaland said the passport is ready if it shows that. I did my capturing today in Berlin, I was able to track it immediately I was done and it showed passport in production and now it returns the same error as yours.
Travel › Avoid Nigerian Embassy The Hague At All Costs by LetsTravel(op): 2:31pm On Oct 14, 2022
Four months ago, I traveled from Germany to Den Haag to renew my passport, prior to booking an appointment and traveling I asked the embassy on WhatsApp if it was possible to pay and do a same day collection as I wanted to pick it up immediately. The CS personnel behind the account said yes.

I went to the embassy and then was told I would not be able to pick it up as they’ve got issues with their system. It’s been four months of constant calling, pleading and begging the embassy to please release my passport or let me pick it up in Berlin but they claim this isn’t possible. They don’t even pick my calls anymore, emails to the embassy and ambassador’s office are unanswered.

I called Berlin explaining my situation and they want 450 euros to create a new application and give me the passport

In the four months, my residence permit has expired, I cannot renew my residency as it’s waiting on my Nigerian passport. My bank accounts have been limited. I’m pretty much illegal in Germany as it is and this situation has been causing so much stress on my mental health.

@justwise if you could move this to FP please so people that don’t want to wait one year for their passports be aware.

Guys advice me on buying a phone in Munich i wanted buying an iPhone and a laptop there when come (tourist visa) i heard its cheaper there than here in Nigeria because of naira dollar issues, how can i go about it please.
iPhone 14pro max in Nigeria is 1.5m, I don’t expect the phones to be lesser than 1m including the 14. I don’t expect the new phones to be cheaper in Nigeria. Depending on what model you wanna buy I would suggest buying in Germany. The eu 14 version comes with a sim tray anyway and most American gadgets in Nigeria are bought with stolen CC

That's what I was trying to explain to someone....he said we should seek the refuges status.... one have to think this very well before jumping into it...

Nigeria is not in any war at all just that things no dey go well...you can't compare it to Ukraine at the moment....Nigeria is safer than Ukraine at the moment....


If you seek refuges, they would make a decision and we might be in the camp for 6 months to 1year or even longer than 1year without no job, you can't go to school, we would just be in the camp and at the end of the day they might make a decision and decline the refuges status we request for....after wasting 6 month of our lives or 1year..... its better to go back to Nigeria now....just take this 14days given to us as a tourist visa...visit beautiful places in poland, make good use of your time here...
Unfortunately, there’s no way around the situation as you’re not a Ukrainian. Governments over the world have packages for Ukrainians because they are the ones at war and they have the jurisdiction to do so. They do not have the jurisdiction for citizens not from Ukraine.

It’s probably not my business but I responded because the people giving you advice seem to be misinformed. There are a lot of Nigerians here who do not have papers to work and are just roaming all around doing illegal things because their refugee status have been denied and they ran away.

You definitely will not be able to work if you take that route. Very similar to Nigerians going to Russia for the World Cup and trying to find ways to stay back but failed. We don’t want to hear another “German or Polish governor deporting us” claiming victims after we refused to do the right thing.

So if you're still in Ukraine, you can try to move to Estonia and Tallinn university would allow you continue your studies there

But I don't know if it applies to foreign students in Ukraine
Please read properly. Students of Ukrainian origin

Please ma, take it easy. A beg. The man who posted that is not there. Same as you and I. If it is true people are moving to Germany, please, let your brother move too....fast. Germany may have a better option for them. We will need to start telling our people to move. As for me, if they have better options rather than returning home, they should take it. Naija has no plan for them.


Madam, that seems to be an entry to Poland. But as long as it is legal, let your brother mix up fast with other Africans and Nigeria to know the best options. If the info about Germany is right, let him move fast to Germany. The offer may not last for too long. Germany may close up anytime. Please tell him to be very sure. A nation like Germany has the capacity to absorb them and even settle them down on humanitarian grounds. It is an answered prayer.

The picture you posted is an entry. It is not saying anything. So, we that are not there cannot say much.

This post is not based on confirmed news, but just a suggestion based on what the writer posted. When confirmed Germany is accepting refugees who crossed from Ukraine to Poland, we will announce it here
You don’t even understand what a refugee status in EU is.

A refugee is someone who their Home country is in trouble. Your home country is not in trouble. The country you’re studying is. There’s nothing stopping you from going back to your home country.

Please think about this properly so you don’t ruin a future and legal chance of coming to the EU.

Please is this a visa or just an entry to Poland.
Lol that’s just a stamp entry to Poland. Not a visa

This is what an EU study visa looks like as defined in the EU constitution

Forget that your talk, why is it that Nigerians are good at discouraging others. People are even saying the visa does not have expiry date on it. So many Nigerians have moved to Germany with it. I just asked a girl that stays in Poland just now and she says is possible.
No one is discouraging you. I don’t care if you were given a polish passport. I am telling you, that visa was so your country can evacuate you after you complained being turned at the border. You will not be able to convert to education because the bureaucracy is high for that, also it’s not in the constitution. This is the best advice you will get, because no country will just accept transfers of international students from Ukraine who is not even an EU country into their Unis.

I’ve seen the stamp entry below, that is very useless and is not even a visa. You will not embe able to get a proper visa with that and if you’re unluckily stopped by the police outside Poland will be arrested.

Germany is very much the worse to try overstaying with

Only your brother can know if it's a schengen visa awarded him there, or just an entry to Poland. I am in Niaja and I heard it over the grape vine.

The questions are: even with 14 days, will she be able to extent her visa in Switzerland? Really I can't answer the question..
No she will not be able to, that’s a 14day emergency visit visas she will not be able to extend in any EU country nor will she be able to renew. If she over stays she will be banned from the EU. The EU is not Ukraine, let her know her options properly before she decides. She’s very much welcome to come back to Nigeria and transfer to any EU university including Poland. As any visa status change must be done from home country and not in the EU.

If you have been given a fourteen days visa DO NOT TRY TO RUN AWAY WITH IT. staying ILLEGAL in Europe is not advisable, you will not be able to live or seek asylum. You are also causing troubles for other Nigerian citizens stranded in Ukraine trying to make it to the border. The visa is for you to come back to your country, even In war people are desperately trying to abuse their visas. Your names are registered under that visa and you will never be able to return to the EU if you overstay.

Welcome to the EU and do not abuse the visas

And you think they would have given you a visa if you used a sponsorship letter in the first place.

Stop giving people bad advice. How many students can you count in that Germany that came into the country using a sponsorship letterhuh
You must be a very daft and impulsive person

Sorry, but how does it depend on the city?
My City Pfarrkirchen frustrates the hell out of renewals not on sponsorship letter. For people on SL it’s a walk in the park and you get 2 years.

For BA people, we have to present a 1year contract. By one year contract it means the one year should start counting from the day of your renewal appt. This means: even if you have 1 year contract with some months already exhausted you’re asked to block the difference.

Example, let’s say you’re already 5 months into your contract. Those previous 5months don’t count. To them you only have 7months contract and must block the spent 5months. Also They do a funny calculation on your paycheck deducting tax* even though you don’t have to pay tax and to them that’s what you earn.

Trust, the process and struggle during renewal is a nightmare. Corona made it somewhat easier but it was still a strong struggle. I’m glad I’m done with the school and city. Cities like passau will not renew your RP with a work contract. You must block again. I know a lot of friends that had to buy SL after coming in with BA.

Bavaria in it self is a very crazy state. Schooling and exams are harder, The people are very uptight and proud, your years in school does not count towards PR unlike other cities where they count half or full.

This thing you just said have even exposed you further. You have no iota idea of how this things work.

Imagine advising him to get a sponsor instead of a block account.

Block account usually have a 95 percent likelihood of you getting a visa approval compared to a sponsor which is a 50 - 50 thing.

Bro stop scamming people. The day someone will scam you is coming. Keep on scamming
I came to Germany on Blocked account. If I had to do again I will opt for Sponsorship letter. Although this depends on your city.
