The Visa fee depends on the prevailing exchange rate within that period.

The 150K is fixed for the verification process.

The lawyer contact you in order to check your immediate family members.
In laws, school attended, hospital of birth, friends, etc.

Yeah You are right. Do you or anyone have an idea with regards to how the layer will contact me; will he or she call or send an email? Do I need to be at home if he will be visiting? As I will be making an international trip on the 4th of August. As I just don’t want to frustrate my application and verification process for any reason.

Ho Nolia,
Did you get help arranging your docs with Oga Paulinus at the embassy?
what if your language cert is 1 yr old?

nuel80:
He will guide you on how to should sort your documents, but ensure you have made all necessary photocopies and go with your self addressed envelope from DHL, if your documents are not complete, getting them from those guys there will cost you a lot. And oga Paulinus might give you an extra time that may not favor you. But if all your documents are intact, you will get a smooth sail.
They will collect your application even if your A1 certificate is more than one year, but you will be required to rewrite the exams

Acisky:

Priwillo:

Yea, he tells you how to arrange it, my cert was passed one year as well so I was asked to get a fresh one, but that won't stop the visa process tho.

Fabulousaify:
Nolia please I'll like to find out somethings from you.
I'm having difficulties getting my original waec certificate. I want to know if the computer printout will do. Or i should just swear to an affidavit instead. Kindly reply please

nuel80:
Swear an affidavit for a missing original copy, then go with the Print-out copy you have. Mind you, they do the verification on WAEC website with the information provided.
