Hi guys,

Please does anyone have an appointment at the Consulate this month or early next month? Or if you know anyone that can help with legalization.

I am not sure of the problem. You can use a computer or try with a different browser.

Funkyb89:
Hello, good morning. please I have some questions I would like to ask.
Last year, I have legalized my documents at the embassy, but I couldn’t proceed with submission for visa application.
This year, I have done preenrolment on universitaly website and my documents have been legalized since last year.
I would like to know if it’s advisadble for me to proceed to submit for visa application at VFS.

Depends on your state but you can check at any Federal Govt Secretariat in your state. Or ministry of health.

Hello, I need help on how the process of getting the Yellow card goes?

The affidavit and NPC attestation is sufficient. Both documents take the place of birth certificate for those born 1992. You also need to translate and authenticate at MOFA. I advise you to send copies for translation while processing authentication (because translation might take time if the translators are busy).

I think you should be able to do the translation in Abuja. The rule is that you can translate anywhere but everyone is just being extra careful by translating at the consulate's recommended translators to avoid stories that touch.

Ujules:
Thank you. My problem now is that i no longer have extra copies of my legalized/authenticated transcripts. I submitted it to different schools in another country who requested for it as part of their requirements.

I have to go back to Abuja and redo another copy and would like to do the translation in Abuja as well, instead of going on a round trip to Lagos➡️Abuja➡️and back to Lagos.

Do you have Mr Oluga contact?

Im also a bit confused about the birth certificate thing.
I was born before 1992, does it mean i have to do the affidavit and NPC attestation, and get another birth certificate from NPC. Does the birth certificate/affidavit/ NPC attestation need to be translated and also authenticated at MOFA?

It's because they are currently closed, you can get an appointment date once they resume.

Please can anyone inform us whether Legalization can be completed within a day. I am thinking of booking an appointment for visa for a date after my legalization if possible so that I don't have to travel back and forth from Lagos.

Rosunkeye:
There’s no available date on VFS both Lagos and Abuja through September.

Pre-enrollment this year will be conducted online and not at the embassy. But I believe you will still need to go to the embassy for legalization

Hi everyone, I just checked my email now and saw this(below) from the University of Siena, can someone please explain to me, I have gone through the website link but I don't seem to understand it. Thanks

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PRE-ENROLLMENT AND VISA Jun 11, 2020
We inform you that the presentation of pre-enrollment applications to higher education courses in Italy by the non-EU students applying for a student visa must be presented on the web site : www.universitaly.it/index.php/students/stranieri

Thanks bro for this, just one question.

Does the employer have to attach the company's bank statement and registration particulars?

Dencotext:
Well yes I spoke with Krysten for close to one hour via whatsapp.

If you are sponsoring yourself, in a way, it is even better than if you are doing business because of the difficulties authenticating people who are using business as their means of sponsorship..

However their is perhaps 3 ways to justify finances, although the boundaries are not fixed because it is possible that you could fit into two or all the 3 categories simultaneously. But it is important you know why each category is important... I will list them the way you may less likely be denied visa.

A). You have a JOB {Full time employment) . Under this category, which many people look down on, you are even more likely to get the visa. If you study the requirement for Schengen visa for study in general, you will discover every country in Europe have slightly different requirements. Germany in particular require a huge amount deposited in your account, while Italy and Spain, which have close borders to Africa, have some more flexible African tendencies. They use the word PROOF OF SUSTENANCE, which is not necessarily a proof of CASH ON GROUND. If you don't have all the cash on ground, your job could be a guarantee that you are still employed, and you won't be a liability when you get there, and some salary allowance or study allowance money will still be coming to you, even if it is not expressively stated, you can borrow salary advance if need be. And that is why fulltime staff must take study leave or leave in general or some form of permission to show embassy that you may still be employed to that job, while schooling, but if you can't produce that, it will not be a good idea to tell embassy that you are resigning for your job, it will be better to keep quiet about that.... unless you really have option B and/or C as alternative.

B) You have a contract Job (Parttime employment) . Your employment letter will indicate whether you are working fulltime and entitled to things like leave, or whether you are working on contract basis, like per hour basis, and not entitled to leave and so on but a fixed negotiated money. I got my visa based under this category as I was working online. I had less than 1 million in my account, approximately E2000, but was able to demonstrate with my employment contract letter, salary account and payslip of 6 months, how much I was earning, that the job was online and when I get to Italy I will still continue to do my contract job online.

C) You are doing business.... only God knows there are perhaps many things people do to earn money business wise, but it is difficult if you do not have official documents to justify what kind of business you do. And again, if your account is suspected of being inflated unnecessarily (being assisted by a thirdparty deposit to inflate your account), you could be denied visa. Your account statement will show the names of people who deposited money into your account... but if organizations deposited money into your account is a better proof of doing business. But you could be a landlord or whatsoever, so a proof of business seemed easiest but also complicated in some ways.

So in conclusion, I advised Krysten, that I always advise anyone who is doing business but also have job, to include the account statement and letter of employment and payslips for the job and along with that of the business, because in nutshell OYIBO people will believe you more if you have a job. You would look like a very responsible fella... infact integrity is what they are looking for and the ability to authenticate what you do, that you are geniune... than all the cash you have in your account. If you know you have a business, they will take note of that better, if you also show them the job you are doing which gives them a clear picture how you obtain your finances to be a business man, it is even better. Because again experience counts.

You still have to pay the fee anyway. They will not issue you with admission letter if you don't. I think the scholarship list will come out on 6th April .

chaiks:
thank you. Please who is in Padova University or knows anything about the release of their excellence scholarship list? They are pressing one to pay d admission fee

That is for courses with limited space/quota. I have gotten my own admission since February from Padua.

solastar2:
I thought padua said the admission decision will be released on 6th April?

Please does anyone have info on how to get 'proof of accommodation' for visa application? Do you need to show you have already rented an apartment or you just show you have sufficient funds for it?

I did not have any issues with my payment.
If they ask for credit/debit, I think most of our cards here are debit cards. If you chose credit card, it might not work.
I am not sure that is the problem though. Maybe you should contact your bank. Have you used it for international online transactions before?

Obinnau:
it's the credit card option.
Have you made the payment?

Rosunkeye:
if u are married with kids u need all the family individual passport pics and go to the other side of tbs you will see people that does it just tell them what you wanma do

what if you are not travelling with them

Hi guys,

I submitted my docs for translation at TBS, I was told to come back in April for it. I met someone who told me there's need to have a 'declaration of family status' affidavit for visa. Please is this true? Does anyone know what that looks like.
