Well , if you are a DIY applicant you need to go there very early in the morning and get number , at the point of capturing they will ask for your correct Nin number and it will be corrected but in my case I didn’t go there very early I need to bribe myself in before they allow me to capture
Silencerh:
Good day bro,

Please how were you able to resolve this?

Re: Cost Of A Nigeria International Passport by freshbillz15(m): 12:28pm On Nov 01, 2022
Even if you want to bribe yourself in , you need to be careful and pay to the right person with long leg else there won’t be different, at Ilorin where are capture I have so many people that pay huge amount of money yet they still have to wait till eternity yet me as DIY capture before them all thanks to small change I gave to the officer at the reception that slot in my file

Finally collected the passport today.
Captured 19th July,2022.
Issue date 22nd October,2022.
Total money spent 36k ( 26k for application, 10k when they started their you can't capture today wahala.)
But it is still better than paying 50-60k.
Thanks guys.

Bros chill no let them scam you oooo. I did DIY in Ibadan in Sept, na after they have attended to all those with agents that they will attend to DIY. You don't need to worry as the process is very fast no matter the crowd. You're likely to leave around 5 to 7pm depending on the crowd.

You will be attended to when they are done with those that paid them, it might be around 5pm or a little earlier than that.

I experienced the same thing too.

Re: Cost Of A Nigeria International Passport by DealMogul(m): 5:07pm On Nov 01, 2022
Hi guys. I've read through a lot of the replies here and gathered enough information to start this application myself as #teamDIY at the Alausa passport office. Let me add that I did my application myself and paid online, printed out all reqd docs and completed the necessary guarantor forms, court stamps and photocopies requested. If you're #TeamDIY the printed appointment slip will guide you accordingly.

First of, the information on Alausa office here needs updating; the processes have changed at the station. Please take note below:

1. If you are #TeamDIY don't bother going to open a file BEFORE your appointment date. You may be turned back or outrightly rejected. The officers will check your slip; don't try to outwit them

2. Got here around 6.30am and waited to be let in. After filing some attendance book at the security gate I was given a tally containing a number for the capturing queue

3. Every fresh applicant was ushered into the reception to be attended to by officers on a table seated on the right of the entrance. Copies of docs as well as originals checked, I was requested to purchase a white file outside and the file was filled with my docs. They filled my details in a register and I was instructed to proceed to Room 12 ( Servicom room) where my file was inspected, questions about my guarantor asked and my docs were signed off ready for further inspection

4. I exited this room and returned the file to the first inspection table for onward transmission to another room (Unknown). Here they inspected the files again and confirmed all was accurate and ready. I think this office is where the NIN is confirmed and that all details are intact

5. I went to wait in the waiting room until my name was called up to receive my file after returning the tally I was given. The next is another long wait for the actual biometrics capture.

6. My turn came to capture after several nodding and napping and lots of "the network is down". Finally had my biometrics done around 4.35pm and got my enrollment slip for passport collection

So the process has changed. Forget all you know about Alausa. Go ahead and #DIY! A guy paid some officer 95k and sat beside my to wait for capturing after getting here before 9am. If you're not ready to shell out over 180k for the so-called express service, don't listen to anyone and do it yourself

Cheers all

MY PASSPORT IS OUT smiley

Finally, after four months of waiting, my passport is out!

After capturing in mid-june, i went to their office in August (8 weeks) to check if the passport is ready and i didn't know how i did it, i lost my enrollment ID along the line and that is where another war started.

I mail, tweet and chat them on Facebook, no response. I even did a thread, no response.

Village people: 1
Me: 0
embarassed
I remembered during one of my tweet before i lost the ID, i dropped my details for NIS Twitter page to confirm if the passport is out, and i went back to check and i couldn't find that tweet again, i was like this is odd. I hardly lost stuff like this, how come it just vanished like that?

Village people: 2
Me: 0

embarassed embarassed

I did all i could to retrieve it but I couldn't. I accepted my fate and was tracking online, still at the production stage. Same stage since i captured.

I was going out one day when i saw the officer at the front office that helped me sorted my files, before i could reach where he was, he was no more there.

I went back to the office a week later, went to his office and we were discussing and i discovered we lives almost same area, if you see the excitement on my face. angry

Village people: 2
Me: 1
cool

Collected his contact and we got talking, he told me "they print passport every Tuesday and they have backlog passports they are still printing because of no paper Issue back then. So once they finished backlog printing, they stopped at April production, so they would continue from there".

So around late August, they started printing April and by September they had printed may and June. The Officer do chat me to update me.

I sent him token for recharge card to appreciate him and he still went ahead and gave it to someone at the production unit so that once my passport is out, i will be informed. Truly, yesterday he chat me up that production unit informed him my passport is out! cool and i can come anytime for it.

Village people: 2
Me: 2
grin

So he helped me bypass that enrollment ID wahala. I went there around 3pm, called him and he took me to the lady in charge and she had already helped me kept my passport cheesy, called my name with the rest, handed over to me.

Sat down for activations and left few mins later.

Checked my passport and it was correct and also it was printed just last week since June.

Note: They are just starting printing for July, I don't know about fast tracking, i am talking about DIY.

DIY is not for the faint hearted applicants o. Funniest is, it is getting more harder for DIY because of the crowd getting more increasing daily who wants to fast track their passport especially Lagos and Ibadan.

Do not lose that enrollment ID, i was just lucky because if not, they are ready to frustrate your life.

If you are not in hurry, you can do DIY and wait. As at now, the officer told me they are fully booked throughout this year and January. So the more you wait, the more time you are wasting.

Apart from 25,500 i paid online, i didn't give anyone dime. The token i gave the officer, he didn't request for it, i gave him myself just because he was good to me and also we live same area

The end. smiley

You can ask questions especially for Ibadan people.

Long but worth reading

Please, help with that Sanna Pay contact. Very urgent

Sorry about the stress.
We're you able to capture today?
Mind sharing your experience with details of what you submitted?
Do you think one should go before capturing date for documentation?

Nb:- Did it myself yesterday and the earliest available date for capturing in Ibadan is 9th of January.
If there is any available date before then, kindly update us.
