so I playfully checked them out.. Outta curiosity... No price like that o or maybe I was doing it wrongly

I used flexible dates for late October to early January and was able to get #815k for 3 people(1child) which is like #270k per person. However, if you get any fare less than #300k right now, I feel that's a great deal as the nearest is like #400k per person!

@Dwebb55 I think you doing it wrongly, I checked it and I got for $880 which is about 280k in Naira. Lagos to IAD

I rechecked and its like #270+k like you have which is still a great deal. I was checking for 3 passengers

The policy is a bank one NOT a CBN regulation.
Its one of the strategies banks employ to use and market or get customers

The prices I quoted was in Naira not Euros or dollars and it was for 3 people travelling from late October. Your dates are much closer and hence more expensive. I checked and the best price I saw online is Air Maroc and it's N480K for the dates you chose. What I do is that i check with the common travel agents, get their best rates and then go and check those airlines directly to see if I can get it cheaper with flexible dates

I was told it was 310 to $1 as at the last bidding on Thursday morning when I went to Diamond bank. I don't know the current interbank rate at Stanbic bank cos I went there about 3weeks ago.

You have contributed a whole lot to the knowledge base of this group. On beehalf of those that have benefited, thank you so much.

In as much as u speak the truth, I think the irritation should come from the persons involved (that is if they are).

Also you monitor who says what and when? You dont mean it. Lol.

I've noticed it's something new.

I came online to actually drop transcripts of 3 of my friends from visa to delivery to hospital quotes. And a friends friend was deported. I cldnt even type cos I'm not ready for bombardment ( really really busy these days) since that's what's reigning

All, I have it in authority that you can get your PTA from Access if you have an account. However its not available in cash. You will be given your 4k dollars in form of a debit card called ''Access Travel card'' which will be activated here and then used abroad to the tune of the 4k in it.

Ok, my take on this:
I noticed it on my form too and decided to do my own research on Google. OK, here's what I found on the web ( I hope you can see it below lipsrsealed). Its not a response from the immigration guys, but seems like a response from a random person/ popular opinion

My decision:
Print the form as is and get it notarised... Carry it along.
1- If I get there and its still usable (i.e., same old form is still on the website/ form not yet updated by .gov, or passport office has no issues with the expiry date, great! I use it to process my docs!.
2- If there are issues/ a new form has been put on the web, then I ask DH to print the latest form, notarise and send to me via FedEx/DHL.

Again the quotes were for October departure. Your departure date is just too close to today to get good rates. I checked Air Maroc and it's like N560K for the dates you stated. I always advise people to purchase their tickets as soon as your visa is given. The price might drop from August 23 but if the exchange rate stays at N380+, we will still have high ticket prices. Try and buy your tickets as early as possible!
