Hello House,

Please House, I need advice on how to apply for Nigerian visa for a Newborn in the US (Will get the passport in Nigeria).

I have looked at the Nigerian Immigration website and there is a link to a website where you can apply online and make payments online. I have tried this website but it hasnt been a smooth ride. I also hear you can apply by post, fill paper application and send money order.

I would like to make the application within the week please. Any advice will be appreciated

Please advice.

Thank you

You want to apply for a visa for a baby in the us, and obtain the passport in Nigeria?

Yes, that is correct!

Why not apply for both in the USA? I wouldn't know if a baby's fingerprint would also be needed, because it's all biometric now.
NB: I would advice you physically speak to the Nigerian High Commission on the phone, for better clarifications and heads up .
