On the day I captured (July 29), I was told to bring ₦20k to fast track it to 2 weeks as they were still printing February booklets . I told them that I would think about it. Almost 3 months after, they can't find my file in the capturing room. They are telling me to come back in a week's time to see if they have found the file and that if I need it urgently,as they are currently producing May booklets, we can have a discussion.

Does that not imply payment?

So bad my brother but y is your file suppose to be in capturing room it was to be handed over to you after capturing to submit it in the servicom office

Asaba isn’t producing for May. I captured September 9 and got the the text for collection September 21. Collection after capturing in Asaba is usually between 7-10 working days.

So fast

It is not. The interview is done in the servicom room and moved to capturing room where you capture, get your enrollment number/pick up date and leave.

This particular lady should engage them on social media (Twitter, Instagram and via emails). She should ask to see the Passport Control Officer (PCO). It seems they are trying to play a fast one on her. In Asaba. If you capture on Monday, your passport is usually ready by Friday or the following Monday.

If she gets her passport, I’m certain the date of capture will not be recent.

Yeah. Asaba is fast. The only downside is getting capturing date.

Good Evening All!

Please help!

How is it possible to change name on a passport? One letter was omitted from the middle name and this may cause issues in the future. This error was not noticed until recently

We have tried to go through the immigration website but the payment platform has issues and didn't go after entering the card information

How can it be done and is it a must the person must go to Abuja to effect this change?

This doesn't apply to Sauka HQ. Go on the day of your appointment for your biometric capture. You can track the status of your application on their website HERE

Okay thank you. Please do you have a list of the documents I should take along ?

One passport photography of yourself
One passport photography of your guarantor
Photocopy of your guarantor bio-data page of his international passport
Photography of his Nim slip or driver license
Guarantor form
Appointment slip
Payment slip
Print out application form
Photocopy of Birth certificate
Photocopy of your Local government of origin
Photocopy of your Nim slip
Note: as a DIY they will ask you to pay between 8k to 10k ( service charge or running cost), just let them know that you don't prepare for that and there is no any money with you. They will definitely delay and ignore you but certainly they will later attend to you. Hopefully if you go there in the morning before 1 or 2 o'clock you should be out of there
I did my capturing there last month.

So happy I join this tread. I will be sharing my little experience of running my passport, the challenges, discomfort, exorts, good and bad part of the view before I finally did my capturing.
It was the first day of September when my dad came back from work and decided to help me get a passport for a future trip. He later told me a friend of his has an experience of it that we should do it online and it will be very easy and fast. Me being a novice I don't know anything about it but before that time my dad told me to go and make some findings inwhich I did at the immigration office at Akure in Ondo and that of Ado. From the little findings I did in akure I was told to pay 75k for 64 pages booklet plus fast tracking meanwhile 32pages booklets is not available as at that moment. I later saw a man from a group working at ekiti NIS, he promised to get me the passport plus fast tracking at 65k for 32pages booklet. My dad friend later discuraged both offers i searched myself. His advice was for me to do it online at the rate of 25k plus 1k unknown for making 26k which I payed for online. He suggested that I chose NIS KWARA ILORIN which i did. The first challenge was at the nis kwara getting there at 5am and picking a no of 162 on line. The date of capturing was on that same day which I went there but favour didn't smile on me that day. I was told by a good Samaritan officer that I haven't even processed my documents at all. I have to print, sign, take some to court and also a guarantor is needed. By that time I was totally disappointed after wasting so many hours. I later told that I shouldn't have done it that way that its so stressful. I shld have payed them in the office straight 45k at Ilorin. To cut the long story short I was told to go and get all those documents and come back the second day. On the second day after submittion of the documents I was now giving another day for capturing the following Thursday. On the d-day i woke up 4:30am got to nis kwara at 5:45 to my surprise I meet 177 people on que. A man i meet there said he has been there since 1am midnight. Finally after waiting for hours from 5:45am I was able to do my capturing exactly 9:15pm all glory to God Almighty.

ASABA!!!!

Went the DIY route. Paid last year but didn't capture till July this year. Went there this morning to check on the status only to be told NRF (NO RECORDS FOUND). They are telling me to check back in a week's time to see if they can find the record. And that by the way, they are still producing for May so if I need it urgently.....

These people sha want me to part with money before they find my file and produce passport for me.

I don't mind the wait but how can they misplace my file?

Please does anyone have any idea of how I can tackle this issue? What's the use of doing DIY if they are going to blackmail someone into parting with money?

I don't think this is true, age difference is not a factor on whom can stand for you as a guarantor. The major point is that he has a valid international passport.

You go online, the NIN portal then you input your application number and ref number, to know if your file was ever touched after capturing or not.
