I really love how people are encouraging and gearing towards DIY, at least it would reducing the encouragement of fraudulent immigration agents who extort money from people.

I have registered online for my renewal and a date has been given to me for capturing. But a family friend has given me an immigration officer's number to get in touch so it would be easier for me the day of the capturing. And I was wondering, is there anything the agent would do specially for me on that day??
I want to throw it out to the house, I will be doing my capturing in Gwagwalada, abuja office and my appointment is 9am. I am hoping that latest, 12pm I have captured and left. Would it be possible Or I need an agent to make it faster?

Go and do it yourself, don’t pay those corrupt officers a dime..

There's an alphabet before the numbers, I think A.

My guarantors form was removed and given to me when I wanted to renew my,passport at Ikoyi Office.

Hello boss, I plan to renew my passport using DIY in ikoyi passport office, It will be expiring in Nov but my agent says 50k for renewal and 5k for migration because its still more than 6 months to expiry. what do you advise? Seems to me the agents are not doing anything extra, they are just collecting money and can't even influence pushing the appointment date forward from my discussion with him. I need ideas from the house guys. Thanks

Those who are doing renewal and have captured, apart from application form, payment receipt, appointment form and expired passport, is there any other documents one is required to take to NIS when going for capturing?

Firstly, God will pun!sh the agent

Secondly, they are not doing anything extra.

Thirdly, Migration is 5k. I also paid for it cos my passport would expire in October.

Fourthly, Renewal for 32 pages / 5 years is 25k and 64 pages / 5 years is 35k and 64 Pages/10 years is 70k.

Lastly, Do it yourself. It's not stressful at all.

I captured February 15. While capturing, I checked my collection date and it says February 18. But when i returned my file to the migration officer, he said i should come this Friday (Feb 25).

I did this - 64 Pages/10 years is 70k.

I got there around 10 am, and i left around 2pm.

Wow, thanks alot for sharing these insights. I am going to embrace the DIY approach jare.

However, I like to ask the following questions;

1) Did you pay the 5k in cash or is there anywhere on the portal where this payment option comes up?

2) When did you make the payment? I just want to have an idea of how long you have been on this DIY journey.

Thanks man

1. I paid in cash to the migration officer. He's inside the PCO's office.

2. I paid on Jan 28. I scheduled a date initially for March 7. But on February 1, I went to their office to see if I would be attended to. But they requested to see my appointment, I was told to come back on the day I chose.

Luckily, I saw a nearer date when playing on the calendar page, so I selected February 15.

3. My advise: Start your application and make payment as soon as you can so as to pick a nearer date. If not, the more you delay, the more you see a farther date.

@IntrovertGuy please what option did you pick here? Considering there is no option for Migration on the portal.

Awesome, I will start my application right away. I now have clarity on the DIY proces. Really appreciate your time and responses.

There's a copy of the letter content pasted on the SERVICOM window.

Then you write.
