Please I'm at very confused. I have my surname, and two of names in all my documents. Now that I'm married, my husband wants to replace my surname with his in my international passport. Truthfully, I do not want to part with my surname. Please can I yank off my middle name then add his surname? I'm willing to do the affidavit and also news paper publication. But I am scared , dont no if removing my middle name will pose any issue for me in the future, because I plan going for my Masters next year (oversea). Please advice

dnt do tht. Either u change ur surname or u dnt. Speak to ur husband.
As for surname, they do not care abroad. Alot of women are married and retain their maiden names, no one cares really

Went to submit my wife's file and mine (DIY). Hers (renewal and change of name due to marriage) was rejected on the basis of not having my bio-data page of my passport despite me attaching my NIN, driver's license, marriage cert, affidavit, application letter for change of name due to marriage, consent letter and explaining that I just applied for a fresh passport and never had one before.
Made enquiries in NIS from 2 different states and they confirmed to me that it will be accepted in their respective command if I submitted it.

Am a bit confused currently..

i dnt understand. Who is applying for renewal and who is applyin for fresh

olutosyne:
just seeing this and someone has sent it already.

Just thinking If they wont deal with him, I even paid extra for fast tracking

so do u want ur passport or not?? U should be thankful they replied you

Beautifulearth:

So I planned to share my experience from Abeokuta with you guys.

Yesterday was my capture date, got there with all the required docs and went straight to the servicom desk.

I was told some docs were missing but not to worry the lady there explained what was missing.

1. There are 2 particular forms that you need to get from them and fill (note: I have heard some places would tell you to get this online if they notice you did DIY)

2. You need 2 printout of the payment page

3. You need to go with your old passport if it's renewal.

The most important stuff is, go to the center to submit your documents days ahead of your interview. This would help you from getting delayed.

Abeokuta is cool thou. Quick service and lots of folks willing to help without expecting cash from you.

Lots of passport are also available for collection, saw lots of passport yesterday.

That's the little I can say. Feel free to ask any questions, if I have any info I would share. Cheers and good luck to all japa plans

olutosyne:
Good afternoon great people,
Pls I mailed NIS servicom today because of the opportunity not getting my passport nextweek might cost me, I got a reply that I should forward the name of the officer helping me and his phone number and also my details.

Just skeptical about the whole issue ,wont this cost the officer his job?

Hello house, for those of us that chose Maitama and already have appointment dates.

Please what is our fate. I am seeing that some people said the centre is closed.

Kindly advise pls.

Well I did my application and captured yesterday at Ikoyi (all on the same day)
Will I get a text once my passport is ready??
Note: not DIY

That officer is in trouble.

Hello Everyone,

For those in Lagos, which of the centres is best for DIY and also what's the estimated time to complete the whole process.
Looking forward to a speedy response.

Thanks for all you guys do.

No. I was only told 3wks

klem93:
Been waiting for your update since yesterday, congrats on your capturing but I want to ask were you told when to come back for the passport?

It's more like data capture form.

AoA777:
Telling us the name of the 2 forms you itemized in number one above will really help a lot of people here.

I will also like to send you a mail so as to guild me with diy Abeokuta command.

Yesterday(17th june is my interview date) I went to the passport office in Akure, strictly DIY.
I went there around 1:30pm, with my complete documents.
My documents was filed and I got interviewed after which the file was vetted, I was called for capturing at around 5:10pm.
I was captured but unlike others I didn't get the printout which contained the enrollment number and collection date( I saw the collection date on the screen 28.06.2021).
I hope not knowing the enrollment number won't later be a problem.
I was the only DIY, others paid through one of the officers in excess of 35-50k.
Most of the folks doesn't even know they can pay themselves.
