Jaeima is right, they do. Just try as much as possible not to laminate your original documents. That's because they're need to "feel" the seal for documents that have such. There are embassies that request that you remove the lamination. In this case, it most times leads to tear

mysticlover:
Well for category A, you upload certain documents and fill forms that’ll place you on the waiting list to submit your application for visa. I think once you’re notified to proceed with your application, you can then upload the remaining documents which after examination, they’ll give you an appointment date or tell you documents that are missing. This is what I got from the consular portal…

profsomebody:
Please, how are northerners supposed to apply now? I'm confused because when I go to the digital portal, my state is attached to Abuja and there's no online application option for states under Abuja. Also, the portal for appointments in Abuja clearly states "NO VISA", so if the intention is to get a visa, we can't apply there. I've tried to reach the Abuja office with no luck.

@hannania, i laminated my original waec and bsc, a long time ago, even before i thought of Germany

Hi Hannania, pls I have a question.

Context: The school I am applied to doesn't require language certificates for the master's program I applied to. I have the admission already but seeing the required documents for the Embassy I need to show a language proficiency certificate. The language of study is English.

Do I have to write a proficiency exam again?

deim98:

Starting from now, all new applications are done via the consular service portal, both cat A and B. In the online application, there is the category for Category A (Study – Specific qualifications) and Category B (Application (Language Course) or
Study Regular). That's why there isn't Category A or B on the appointment website anymore.

Hi, i cant see this, do you mind sharing a screenshot

Hannania:
National visa applications are handled at the consulate in Lagos.

From my brothers experience, they said if he had sent an email before the interview day he would have been rescheduled. But because he attended the interview, he was asked to reapply and send the block account confirmation when he receives it. he was given his old application number to reference in his email. He got a new date after 2 days. So I think you need to reapply and then send the document ontop of the email confirmation with some explanation. Looks like you need to have an active application in the system they can work with.
You shouldn’t worry you’ll be rescheduled in no time. All the best.

Hannania:
Send a screenshot of the reply, let me understand fully what they meant so I don't end up misleading you because of half info

PLEASE WHO CAN SUGGEST SCHOOLS THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO GIVE ME ADMISSION WITHIN TWO WEEKS
EITHER PRIVATE OR PUBLIC
I APPLIED FOR APPOINTMENT APRIL 13TH 2023 AND SUDDENLY I HAVE APPOINTMENT FOR MARCH 4, 2025.. PLEASE SUGGEST WHAT I SHOULD DO AT THIS TIME..
OTHER DOCUMENTS ARE AVAILABLE .... PLEASE ANY advice at this point would be very useful to me

Hannania:
If you have a previous admission, add it and state that it's expired and because of the waiting time, you're waiting for a new admission. Now I hope you have applications that have been made already. Attached is proof of such applications too

profsomebody:
This is what they say, but while registering, there aren't such distinctions

pineapplejuice:
I believe either they or the system makes that distinction based on the answers in the entry form - as you are asked if you are doing a PhD, scholarship or whatever.

profsomebody:
Yes, I imagined that too, but then there's no question on class of degree (remember class 1 was also Cat A)

floflo12:
good evening guys, please i want to know if the old method of sending documents to uni-assist still exist or there's no need to send mail documents over but just upload everything digitally.
