Try Benin Republic first before going to Ghana. Get a residence permit before booking an appointment.Ghana should be your last resort,It's difficult getting a residence permit talk less of the visa. Writing from experience.

I think in his case,Ghana would be easier for him,since he already has a place to stay and his friend's family can also vouch for him that he lives in their apartment.
Both in Ghana and Benin Republic,their immigration officers would come to verify if truly he resides in a rented apartment and not in a hotel.

Please what is the process to get a residence permit in Benin?

Elninoarmando:


I was in Cotonou-Benin Republic,for a resident permit from January to March this year.
The process was moving smoothly till it was time to submit the whole documents to their immigration office.
I couldn't thumb print or take photograph because their central electronic system was being repaired.
It was only in August that they repaired their system.By that time i've even had my visa interview at the German consulate,Lagos.

Required documents from Nigeria to take along-
(1.)Police character from Alagbon police station
(2.)Birth certificate attestation from national population census
(3.)Passport
(5.)Passport photographs(about eight)
(6.)Yellow card(you get this at seme border)

Required documents in Benin Republic-
(1.)Attestation resident(the mayor/chief in your resident zone/area has to certity that you're living there)
(2.)Legalization of (1.) at the Marie
(3.) Translation of birth certificate
(4.)Medicals(you have to be tested for HIV)
(5.)Carte judiciary (their court has to certify some documents)
(6.)Impo(tax)
(7.)Submission fee
When you're through with all these,you submit them at the immigration office.The officers will come and verify if truly you're living in the mentioned apartment and might also come to your shop.
It takes about 2-3 months for it to be ready.
The date of issuance of the permit is when you start counting for the next six months or more,which qualifies you to apply for a visa with it.
Keep about N200K - N300K or more for the journey.
The bottom line is-you must have someone reliable in Benin Republic for this to pull through.
All the best.
I must say you are grounded...I got mine 7th October..they have changed a bit...they require registre du certificate and attestation de fiscale which is almost 140k, still paid at impol...I suffer no be small, but I got it..it is shocking to know that the embassy there is deserted... You equally missed Nigerian consular card on that list, currently their machine is down...from the right source...if interested let me know

You can go to Ghana via bus(ABC transport etc) or aeroplane.
You don't need visa to go to Ghana.They're in ECOWAS.Your passport will only be stamped by the immigration officers at the point of entry.
Lol, if you like live inside the German embassy,Ghana,without a six-month valid resident permit,you can't apply for a visa.And the six months starts counting from the day of issuance of the permit and not the day you submitted the required documents at the immigration office.Also,note that your passport must show that you didn't leave Ghana within those six months,otherwise the embassy might notice you only came for the resident permit and left afterwards during the visa application.
Your mission in Ghana is to gather relevant documents,starting from Nigeria,that'd qualify you to apply for a resident permit.
That your friend should help you out on the relevant documents.
All the best.

Ojabo123:
pls can i write you via email or number pls for more talk. Thanks

MICng:

I know of someone you submitted for more than three months but haven't still gotten the resident permit.

Padme:


Lol...of course, presently their machine for card printing is down...your person could have such delays if he/she followed the due process without doing what Nigerians do best..you know what I mean..even if you succeed in capturing, they must pay you a visit at home and your fictitious shop, and they might even request for your utility bills. That being said, they suspect Nigerians a lot and at the same time expect us to do what we know how to do best.
Now back your person..it possible his/her file is kept somewhere unattended to because him follow due process. But let me blow your mind, you can get that stuff in less than 3 weeks without the visiting and all that and let me even shock you the more, you can capture today and get your card next day by 8 am

passenger1984:
Good morning guys,
This is what I received this morning, my passport is with them already(so I don't know why it is still on the list), then my passport expires in 2months time I hope that is not a problem?
So my people what next in regards to the travel health insurance and travel dates.

Thanks

745Major:

1. After graduation will I get a work permit or I’ll have to apply for it before masters is over ? And can I keep extending my stay through the work permit till I’m qualified for a PR ?

2. Also would like to knw, if tuition will not be paid, can about 2 to 3m cover for all other fees and living expenses for the Two years masters program ? Or what range is suggested ?

Itohan252775:
is there a way possible in nigeria to get your appointment date sooner for group B

Padme:

There is nothing like Category B in other countries...that thing is only peculiar to Nigeria because of our population and probably how we try to cut corners in everything. Its actually a control measure for the Embassy in Nigeria, and most of this African countries are not keen to travel unlike Nigerians...our problem as a country plenty abeg

Check your e-mail.
