olansindeed: I also renewed my passport myself last month. It took 5 days. Let's stop enabling corruption,the Twitter handle works very well. I can testify to that. My observation (I might wrong), people having this delay are those that paid people to do it for them. Just follow the instruction on their website, it is not that difficult. NIS is trying to reduce corrupt practices in their operation but we the customers are making excuse for the corruption to continue. I can testify too Didnt even use twitter but I was encouraged from the thread on Nairaland so I followed the steps kept my head down at Ikoyi office and went straight to servicom Came back two weeks later went to collections - didnt talk to anyone. Submitted my slip to the officer who was addressing everyone at collections area. Waited till they called my name I was very ready to use twitter in fact I had memorised the names of the officers who attended to me there just in case. I didnt go about talking in public that I did selfservice cos there was blatant agent payments going on there so I wasnt going to let someon's greed spoil my blues. I did not have any desperation money to dash any one so please dont renew your passport when you're anxious |

Meddyakki: Dear Nairalander, thanks for your supports so far.
My situation is a bit hard but I need your advice.
I completed my MSc in the UK in September 2019, I resumed in Germany for another study. I came to Nigeria(planned 2 weeks) and got stuck because of Corona(Visa&temporary BRP also expired). I thought it was over and I won't be able to return to Germany because I left without my BRP(it takes months to get it in Germany).
I submitted applications for MSc in the UK and I never mentioned I am a student in Germany because I felt won't go back. Just a few hours ago, I got my German BRP. I intend to either drop my Germany programme or combine the 2.
I have always been scared that my Visa might be denied because I didn't declare studying in Germany. I am also thinking I should communicate with my UK school about applying for my UK Visa in Germany since it was easier for me to move from the UK to Germany. Does it make sense to apply in Nigeria than in Germany or I should use my German address and book my Visa appointment in Germany? Thanks.
I am also scared of my visa application in Nigeria because I will be applying with my family in Nigeria(ECO might feel I won't return to Nigeria(travelling with a 4 weeks old baby)). Can I apply from Germany while my family are submitting Visa applications in Nigeria at the same time or they should wait till I get my Visa in Germany Are you not studying in Germany anymore? You cant hold on to BRP and move to Germany without continuing your studies there. This is another MSc you're applying for in the UK literally 1 year after you finished one. Your family is not the issue here ..its you. Applying from Germany will bring up the question of why you are abandoning your course in Germany or have you finished the course there? Sort out yourself first, dependents can always come later Where do you want to study |

ZabethMay: Her visa is tied to her cas statement. That is 3 years study visa. But MSc is one year. So she doesn’t really know what to do. If she’d have to reapply for visa or something Too late as you said it is tied, She would have to reapply next year for MSc and this visa would be cancelled. She should also inform her BSc Uni that she's not resuming |

Similar to how probiotics works so its really bacteria that is stomach/gut friendly. But i would advice after 2/3 days keep n the fridge.
If you take natural yoghurt (from cows milk not powdered milk) it would provide same relief

Roneld77: She’s inviting me as a friend. And with my profile i don’t look like a permanent immigrant to the UK, i have a good job here, that what i mean, she even stayed it in the i.v that she will be taking care of all my responsibilities while you are here including accommodation and food, but not limited to financial responsibility for your round trip air fare to travel from Nigeria to the UK and back. You will be staying with me at my home address as provided above for the duration of 3 weeks since i have enough room for u ect’s
Even if u have brothers, sisters, uncles, family members who are UK citizens it all still the same thing unless u applying base on settlement as a UK BRP or citizen spouse.
Example: If my blood brother who is a UK citizen is inviting me to the UK, what do u think is gunna be the eco thinking’s ? Like’ i won’t go back to Nigeria again, when issues the visa, my brother who is already a citizen will cover me up lol.
Even if a UK parent is inviting a child; nah still the same thing applying for a 6 month tourist visa the chance of getting is 50/50.
The fact is that i don’t have to submit her financial paperwork’s since am coming as a friend, and as an adult, so i need to sponsor my shits myself, perhaps she don’t even plan to sponsor the trip, she don’t appear so desperate to the eco’s in the sense that she write she will be responsible for my flight ticket the eco will say why is she so desperate to bring me over all this takes only prayers and miracles to happen, different eco’s with different thoughts.”
Numerous forks have gotten visas with this same profile related to mine base on UK 6 month tourist visa, i am not the first, neither do i look like the last.
“Let believe it’s 50/50 as someone said earlier.”
I do believe in miracles !

Travel › Re: Banned From UK, Can I Still Get A Schengen Visa ? by Taal17: 10:31am On Aug 30, 2020 |
Alakryy: Hello everyone,
Quick story...I’ve been to the UK twice and on the second trip I overstayed and I was removed with a group through chartered flight from the UK by the Home Office(immigration). I didn’t commit any crime but yes I overstayed. I even applied for asylum to try and stay in the UK when they detained me in the detention center but it was rejected. I was removed to Nigeria with a travel document they got from Nigerian embassy.
Thank God they couldn’t use my International passport to remove me cause I hid it in the UK. And I later found out when we arrived the airport in Nigeria that they used a stamp to cancel all the people’ International passport that was on the flight with me.
I later got my passport from the UK sent to me in Nigeria by a friend. The passport had UK stamps on it but shortly after that it expired. So I had to renew it and I got a new passport. My questions are
1) Can I still get a Schengen visa even though I’ve been banned 10years by UK?(I’ve used 4years on it already)
2) Can I submit my old passport with the new passport to show my UK travel history when applying for Schengen visa to help my chances ?
3) My old passport has 2 UK visa stamps. But the second visa doesn’t have an airport stamp that shows I arrived back to Nigeria because I didn’t use it to travel back to Nigeria as I was removed by the immigration. Will that be a problem if I add it with my new passport when applying for Schengen visa ?
4) Or should I just submit only the new passport so as not to complicate things for myself?
Please I need someone to advice me on what to do. I’m very sure someone here has been in my shoes before...so please help a sister on how you did yours. They do not need your passport to link or connect data so leave all those fallacies there are many ways to connect the dots without a physical document. Countries share data that is known. However bans are not shared. Your ban is for the UK. Your application to the France is a separate thing so of what use is your old passport ?They dont need your old passport to determine when you were in the UK. That being said if your application form or interview to the France may require you to provide information on previous visas, and if it does please state previous visa details. If it asks if you have been removed etc then state the truth. Since your application to France is a work visa then it is highly unlikely that your deportation would affect this so please go ahead. |

Horerku: My dad was once sick (4years back), he was admitted at lasuth and during the time i was with him there, i tried getting medical help but it was a very regrettable experience. After using hours and days at family clinic (i get there by 7 and see doctor by 11 or 12), I was referred to their endocrine section. But the problem was first time i visit the endocrine cos they open only Tuesday and Thursday i met a doctor who examined me (in front of students o) and asked me to run some tests which amount to 45k (6 tests). I did the tests and next appointment was two weeks later. Next time i went there with the tests, i met another doctor who just browsed through my file and results and instead of prescribing drug or say u go through this treatment he wrote another test which was 65k (2 tests). I did this too and was asked to come again in 2 weeks almost 120k on test alone. Believe me you next time i went again they were on strike and the lady at the records gave me a month appointment, after the strike i went and when i will see doctor again, it was not any of the first 2 doctors �. Although this was an elderly woman, asked me questions, went through my files, checked first test results and second one, brought out one thing like big beads like this and checked my throat. After all those guess what? She asked me to go for another test again. The price of this was 145k! I was broke already i spent saving for house rent on inconclusive tests and I'm asked to go for a new one. I just kept crying in the bus till i got home cos i feel swindled and punished for what is not my fault. I tore the hospital card and never went back there. Because if the tests were that expensive how much with the treatment be? Reason I'm trying to see if i can see a private hospital doctor that will help me out. I almost ended my life after my experience at lasuth i don't if luth won't be same old story. You will still do all those tests again - your diagnosis could be very rare thats the reason why tests are like that, even in developed countries many conditions go through 2 years of different diagnosis. You may not like what you hear but you do act like a child and tear up evidence If you had been calm enough to at least keep a copy of all your test results sebi you would continue from there with another teaching hospital All consultants worked in teaching hospitals whether in Nigeria or abroad thats where you hone your skills |

But to answer many questions at a time: none of my parents are aware, although none are hairy, sibs are well and fully grown our last born 15 has beards so it's not a family thing. Jokes aside, i have been scared to date cos i am scared, really scared but since i have been enlightened, will give it a chance.
First step i will be taking before going on medical trips is visit a pharmacist in my area (it's a big drug store), i am going to start from there and God lead me right, solution should start from there. I will start a thread in medical and update it on my development. Thanks for the care y'all.
