Hi,
Please I have a passport that will expire in June 2016 and I need to apply for a visa around that time. Can I renew the passport before the expiry date or do I have to wait for the passport to expire? Also, do I get to retain possession of the old passport after a new one is issued?
Thanks.

Hi Godownchild,

I have a stolen passport issue. Do I have to travel to Abuja to replace the passport or can this be done in Lagos?

Cheers

Godownchild:


Lost case/stolen passport is only handled in our headquarters here in abuja not lagos

abuhubaidah:
please sis,the middle name on my birth certificate is different from the the one I'm applying with hope I have no problem?

Godownchild:


Since you are applying for a fresh passport, it doesn't matter, so long the middle name you want to use is consistent in all your other documents, it would fly.

Or better still you can get declaration of age from the court to avoid stories that touch

abuhubaidah:
i think that would be better..how can I get that here in Lagos and how much?thanks

Godownchild:


Declaration of age sud be about 200 or 500. Not exactly sure since I don't work in the court
