Good morning everyone, please I have some newbies questions:

1. What are the needed documents that are needed for DIY application, to help us get them ready before application. I know NIN is required, any other document (s)?

You will need passport and National Population birth certificate.

2. After applying online today and successfully paying for example, can one just proceed to their office the next day for capturing? Or is there a timeline that must pass?

No, you will pick a date for capturing after making payment the available dates that are not cancelled or asterisk are the days you can pick while those that are cancelled are booked already.

3. After capturing, like how long does it take for the passport to be ready for collection?

Honestly I don't have an idea as it depends on the state you did the capturing. My sister did hers in Ilorin in January and it was ready in February, I did mine in February in NIS HQ in Abuja here, I will check back by ending of this month to know if it's ready.

4. During the online application, what's the mode / means of payment. And must payment be made from the applicants account number? For instance, can the applicant transfer money from a friend's account number for the payment? Or must the payment come from her/ his account number?

It must not necessarily be from your account but the most important thing is that whichever account you will be using, the ATM card must be Mastercard. It initial fee is 35k but since it's online payment there was a bank charge of 1400 or 1600 can't really remember the amount.

N/b, a kind of step-by-step guide for DIY application.

Good day all,

The approval status in my application slip is still showing waiting for approval. Is that a cause for concern? My biometrics is next week Wednesday at Ikoyi office. Hope Ikoyi is DIY friendly

AllLovingGod:
Thank you.Must it be a valid passport, like, can one use the passport of a friend which is expired though during application or must it be valid passport? Thanks again. I appreciate. Sorry for asking too many questions, lol.
God bless you.

Ebuwonders:
The Nin verification stage, will it be ticked after capturing? Or my nin needs to be verified before my biometrics.

Sputnik12345:


They don't ask for it anymore.

missyojo:


Is it passport they don't ask of anymore? If Yes, that's good.

Sputnik12345:


Yes...that was the old procedure

It's your passport picture in which you appeared in.

Sputnik12345:


1. Print your Application form with photocopy, Payment Receipt with photocopy, Appointment form with photocopy, NIN photocopy with original, local govt original and birth certificate original

2. No, they'll send you an email after they've gone through it...then it will be approved/vetted. Then you'll have to book an appointment date

3. Go there after at least one month if you didn't fast track it to be on the safer side.

4. Use paystack...doesn't matter where you pay from. You pay with your atm card

AllLovingGod:
Oh, passport photograph? Ok.
Thank you so much. You're too kind. God bless you ma'am.

Please I need help, My son captured at alimosho passport office on Dec 18 and went there for collection on 30th Jan , only to be told that they can't find my son's passport but its been produced. I was told to go to Alausa to check for it and was also told its not at alausa (production office) after searching their office for it that i should go back to Alimosho and tell them to look for it.

Ojoboak:
No, everything is online. Just needed some patience.Did mine 2weeks ago, without leaving my desk.
