Mamaroon: Guys, guys, chill!!! 
No one is encouraging intellectual laziness. The point being raised is that we should treat people the way we want to be treated...with respect.
We don't have to respond to every question to add value to the thread. Silence is actually a response, believe it or not. Referring people to page 1 is excellent....it's the sacarsm and barbs that aren't. I remember asking a question about jobs on the Living in Canada thread some months ago and not one soul responded...I took that as a response...maybe they didn't have the answer...maybe my question was stupid...it made me seek for answers by searching the thread thoroughly and other resources.
We would typically be careful about how we speak to our colleagues at work in Nigeria, even when we disagree with them....if we don't do this currently, it's a skill we'll need in Canada.
On days when I have nothing better to do, I look back to the first post of some who respond harshly and even they, in some instances asked questions that may have been considered silly 6 or 12 months prior (on particularly lazy days I even screen grab for kicks). 
Let's just be kind to each other, the world is already such a harsh place especially Naija.
A wonderful weekend to all! Wisdom personified!!! |

ThowLou: It’s not just degrading, it defeats the purpose of this platform. If you cannot answer a question or feel it’s too stupid, just ignore. You don’t even know who is who on this thread or how a thoughtful your response might be helpful in future. People should learn to be polite and kind or just keep quiet if you cannot be that. I respect you bro. You particularly have been very helpful. This thread as a whole has been very helpful. Let's be a bit patient with each other and "correct with love". I haven't congratulated you since your ITA. Congrats bro. May the rest of the process be seamless for you. Cheers. |

Thiwalade: Good morning everyone, Please i am about to start the process of obtaining my international passport in Lagos, Ogun, and its environs in Nigeria. I would like a step by step guide on the process. Is it safer to do it online or offline? Sorry but which one is Lagos, Ogun and its environs? Decide on a passport office you want to use and start your application online. Just take note of previous comments on the last few pages cos some passport offices could be very corrupt. Based on my experience at the national headquarters, everyone was professional. Standard e-passport (32pages and 5 years validity) is 25k. If you are paying cash at bank, there is an extra charge of 500 but if you are paying via debit card, there is an extra charge of 1k. After paying, print your Acknowledgement of receipt, updated biodata form, and your guarantor's form. You will need a photocopy of your guarantor's passport biodata page and NIN card/slip or driver's license (NIN card/slip preferably). You will also attach photocopies of your NIN card/slip and birth certificate or declaration of age. Have your guarantor fill the 2 pages of the guarantor's form and write his/her full name (also sign) at the back of one of his/her photograph. Proceed to court and have your guarantor's form stamped. Submit all these and if you are lucky, you can be captured same day especially if there are no much people waiting to be captured. As soon as you are captured and you confirm all your details correctly, you will be given a collection slip stating the date of collection - usually doesnt exceed 2 weeks. After collecting your passport, go to the activation desk and activate it. Cheers! |

opeyemi2012: I'm currently at the NIS HQ, Sauka, Abuja. I must say the process here is pretty seamless. Got here around 11.40am. I forgot to stamp my guarantor's form before getting here. Luckily, there is a court within the premises and I was attended to in 3 minutes after paying N700.
I proceeded to the passport application processing office. You are requested to generate an electronic ticket yourself before stepping into the waiting room. Your ticket number will appear on an electronic board in front of the counter when it is your turn. There are about 12 or more counters and it took less than 8 minutes before I was attended to.
Altogether, I spent less than 30 minutes because there are not many applicants today.
I'm impressed with the process. I was told my PP will be ready on 22nd of July 2020. That's just 7 work days from today.
Better times are here.
PS: I didnt wait for my interview date which was slated for 22nd July 2022 anyway. I guess it was a system error. Just go with all the required documents and you will be attended to. Sequel to my last post, I collected my international passport today. My passport was ready in 4 work days without paying extra 1 kobo to anyone. Why not 22nd but 17th? Well, I got an SMS from NIS on Wednesday 15th July (two days after capturing) stating that the names on my birth certificate does not correspond with that on my application. Truly, my birth certificate has a name which I dont use anymore but I submitted a court affidavit for change of name along with my application. I do not know why they overlooked the affidavit. I went there yesterday to explain myself and after much argument whether to get NPC declaration of age or not, a lady there (so polite, attentive and sweet) took interest in my case and offered to help. She promised to call me if I would eventually need NPC DoA and that I should just scan and send via email if need be. However, upon getting home, I received a call from her telling me my passport has being printed and asked me to come collect it today -three day earlier than the initial date.  I'm really thankful to God and those professional officers at the HQ for the seamless process. |

I will advise Canada or Australia. Msc in Germany especially if you're into engineering or IT. Lots of job in IT and engineering field in Germany after graduation.
Canada, Australia, Germany, USA. Leave UK.
That house, you can afford to finish it with a job after you graduate and work abroad, you can also be able to give your children a great privilege of being raised in a sane society that has immense future.

ThowLou: Good Morning Everyone, putting this info out for pre-ECA candidates with a degree from Unilag that they want to evaluate. I hope this information helps, you can PM me if you need further clarifications.
PS/Disclaimer: I do not work in Unilag and this is only based on my personal experience when I was in the ECA process.
As far as I know, Unilag does not engage the services of ETX-NG so you have to apply for your transcript via the records portal- records.unilag.edu.ng
* Click on new application/track applications * Tick the box for the program you wish to evaluate and select unique destination * Document Type is Transcript * Destination is North American Countries * Dispatch method is courier service (private) * Enter WES Address * Click on proceed and pay online
If you have a contact, follow up with prayers and supplication for speedy processing
If you are yet to receive your certificate from Unilag, follow the steps above and repeat steps but request for your statement of result to be sent to your address. It’s this SOR that will be sent to WES in place of your certificate. This is important because WES will only complete your ECA when they verify your SOR and transcript from the University of Lagos
It’s also important to note that even if you pay for courier for your SOR, you’ll need to pick it up yourself as the courier fee is a joke to Unilag, they will not send your result via courier to you.
Also remember to be prayerful cos Unilag can give you serious headache during the wait period but with God everything is possible.
God who did for everyone here will complete yours too and we will all testify. you are doing well bro....God bless you. |

JustMellow: Hello Opeyemi2012,
Its advised to only evaluate the highest degree. This saves time, stress and cost. BTW not all information on quora are well-articulated.
All the best Thanks bro. I get it now. I'll contact WES to exclude evaluation of my BSc. ednut1: when you see some comments from the so called immigration lawyer you go weak. so many false and misleading posts. Evaluating both most times takes time if with WES due to Nigerian factor. so best to evaluate master unless one needs the BSC evaluation for licencing in canada. Bro, I just tire. Thank God guys like you are there to guide us. Person go just dey waste time and money. To think that I even acquired my first degree from UniMaid, the stress for too plenty and they dont offer online applications for transcripts like Unilag. Thanks for the heads-up bro. |
