Good day all,
Please I need info on how to go about getting a new intl passport with my married name.
My old one with my madien name expired mid 2014. I stay in PH and they say I have to go to Abj for a new passport with my married name, that they only do fresh passport in PH.
When I inquired if I could do a new/fresh one with my married name, I was told that once they key in my other info like My first & middle names, DOB & POB that it will come up on the system as already exsiting and it will be locked off.
So my question now is; is there no way I can get a new passport with my married name in PH since I can't leave work & travel to Abj.
Also, does anyone have a contact of someone in Abj, I could talk to over the phone to give me the right info I need to arm myself with.
Sorry for the long post.
CC; luvlydevin (cos of ur Abj connection)
Overlord77 ( cos of ur PH connection)
Augustbreak (how long did it take you to effect the change in abj & contact of any Abj staff would be apperciated.
Tlk2prince (do you have any contact in abj one can talk to?)
And others with useful info.

Hence ure married and wants ur hobbies name to appear in your int'l passport,
Then you have no choice than to travel to abuja.
NOTE: it can only be done in abuja @Nigeria Immigration Headquaters Abuja...

Mail the university(head of student Affairs Dept.)
Let dem know you are interested to do Msc in Molecular Biology in the University and you need to know the procedure, also let dem know ure an international student(Nigeria).
U'd get a reply on how to prepare your documents. The university will send to you application form aswell.
Also ask if its *Compulsory* to translate ur documents to Bulgarian hence, they are all in English.
YES, you need to send via DHL..
Ask the University your questions to stay on-track.
Get their phone number aswell it will help a lot....
Incase you encounter challenges in gettin d required documents, you can always ask for assistance here....
Peace

Good one Vicjustwise!
Wonderful write-up.

Happy Sunday Y'all...
And a Blessed week ahead!!!

adeniyibolanle:
ok bro i will do that now, i will let all know as soon as i come out with something. Thank you

Alrite just take ur time and Xplore intensively!!!
I believe u'd come out with some positive results..

huhmuhyehmi:
oh! Thanks… what about the tution, do you have an idea of the range?

I can't really say because tuition fee vries from university to university.
I applied for admission @New Bulgarian University and the tuition fee is 2700euro...

adeniyibolanle:
yea bro am thinking of molecular biology. Pls bro what are the things and steps that i should follow to successfully get admitted into the University cos i really want to do it on my own without involving any agents, i believe with your advice i direction it will be successful in Jesus name (Amen).

Get a university of your choice, den u'd find out the things they require and the steps as well.

huhmuhyehmi:
@tlk2Prince et all

pls what is the requirement for undergraduate study in Bulgaria? do dey also require ielts, d Statement of account requirements, nd other tinz to gain admission dir…

Its quite simple my friend!!
First, u don't need a statement of account when applying for studies in bulgaria, u only nedd it when u go for visa.
For UG studies in Bulgaria, u need to provide (I) weac certificata (ii) Eligibility letter (iii) Medical certificate (iv) 2 passport photograph (v) data page of international passport.
Its advisable you provide a documents showing you proficiency in English Language, so I'd advice u get ielts result or any standard English test as it will give you an *edge.
Most importantly, check the University to know their procedure for admission of International students.
Lastly, I implore you to do it yoursef coz its not tedious, all you need is proper time management and determination.
You can start now so you could meet up with the paper works and resume by october.
Peace

adeniyibolanle:
Greetings to you all, am really happy to come across this thread cos am really intrested in studying in Bulgaria.

Pls brother i want you guy to help me by giving direction for me to make this dream come tru. Xpecting to read from you. God bless you

Some universities in sofia have started accepting application for studies.
You can start your paper so you could meet up with the requirements and resume by october.
The requirements, tuition fee and procedure varies from university to university.
So my friend, I'd advice you take your time and go through the website of the university of your choice.
Let us know where you are having challenges den we'd put head 2gether to help you..
Peace

Maybe Cowleg is talkin from experience sha!!!
@Toluene in what ever you do as regard the travel,IV letter nd Visa make sure u apply common sense if not the Agent go use you as him ATM machine lols...

cowleg:
Toluene, toluene, toluene? How many times did i call you
you are in the process of being scammed by con artists. The more you look the less you see. Your eyes will open when he go scam u upto 1 million. Are yu not a nigerian guy? you gotta be sharp.

Bulgaria is one of the poorest eu country, their is basic high unemployment their, even their citizens no get job that most of them are running to west europe. The guy is aware of the number on the lettet, if u dnt kno he wana use it to convince you, He willl eventually get yu a fake visa then collect upto 500k depending on his greediness before he release ur passport, u go sell ur papa land pay, then he will disappear.

LAFS!!!!
Diz guy, @Cowleg u harsh ooh take it easy on the guy nah....
He's making some good sense @Toluene.

Something is not right here Mr Toluene23,
Just be patient and wait for d agent guy to return den you can confront him with your many questions.
Secondly, try and ask people around you or look for an agency that helps with travel issues and confirm the genuiness of the invitation letter..
Like I said, wait for d agent guy to come home den go to him with a good friend of urs.
Ask him all your questions den if ure not clear or smell scam.......... U know what 2do.
Peace

toluene23:
But; bor what I'm scared about this job; is that it shouldn't be somejobs that they will enslave someone.so someone will be restricted. I asked the man; and he told me at first when going tthat I won't be allowed to go with our certificated; that we can only have it in our email. That because they might think I can get there and change my mind on the job; that I might only want to use them as the source to get the country. So the man Said I will have to sign few months or years with them first; and they will process my resident. But I'm scared not to be enslave. Ur comment and Advice on this please.

@Toluene, ure very funny.
So you don't know the kind of job you are going for in bulgaria, well thas bad enuf...
You should be very careful with these agent guys coz they are only after your money.
Please! Please!! Please!!! Try and confirm the kind of job you are going there to do ooo bcoz *had I know might be too late.
Anyways I still wish u success in d Visa and let not your certificate worry you for now, get to bulgaria first and if things works out well den you can startsurfacing your plans...
Peace

toluene23:
Yeah! Latest. Told me jst now that all is in good condition now at the embassy now; that they will call me in the next 10 working days acording to him. But he told me when he got there he was asked to pay additional 100dolls to make it 250dolls; initially I paid him 150dolls for VISA; but dat eventually when he got there; they told him 150dolls is for study VISA;and its BIz/Working VISA I'm going with.which is 250dolls.he told me that I should know I'm owninghim 100dolls now. I said okay that no problem. What's your advice on this. I think ishould wait till the next 10working days as he have said. Even he's still in abuja as he said. That he's trying to confirm what they will ask at their interview so as to give me hint.

Ok good development. Like he said 10 working days fingers crossed mahn!
Make sure u know about the job the you applied and also some vital fact about *bulgaria as it will give u an edge IF an interview will be conducted...
Meanwhile I'd advice u go through the company/organisation dat invited you, so you could gather informations aswell.
*Peace

cowleg:

toluene23:

I'm going to see him today coz he told me our Invitation has arrived and that they call him from embassy that he should report. So he told me he's going there today. That I have to bring I copy of my cert and some other things and passort to abuja. But I will see the IV this morning, please how do I confirm; he's yet to request for money; but he told me he's going to abuja with the VISA fee 150dolls this morning; that after dey ve granted it; dat he will now giv us hs own charge. But I want to confirm the invitation from the compny;because I'm in lag and the country embassy is at abuja. Help!!!

I rili don't know how to advice u my friend coz ur case is confusing me...

Well, when u see the IV letter, try and copy the contacts of the company/organisation to confirm if its genuine.
Am are you have to pay certain amount for Visa fee.
Am suprised that Bulgaria Embassy called him(ur agent). Anyways , you can call bulgaria embassy abuja to confirm the amount of the visa fee.


Sorry my reply is coming late!!

uzhi:

Ok what can I say #Godwin.
Congrats mahn I know u'd surely scale through...

toluene23:
Okay,Thanks. But what if I can have the copy of the letter of invitation and employment from him. I think I can take that to the embassy for confirmation and for authenticity. Before I give him money for VISA and passport to take it along to the bulgaria embassy in abuja.

Before I answer you question!
Are the the one that applied for the job and was invited OR the Agent did that for you?
Secondly, do you have information on the kind of employment and maybe the company/organisation?

toluene23:
He said I should book it down; tho I think booking its free.I think he s taking the printed copy to the embassy with passport .please what's your advice how on this,hope its not a formality /scam. Because he's taking the. VISA fee along with the printed copy that I've booked already and along with the passport. Advice please.

You can go to the embassy and make enquiry.

If you are going to apply for VISA(all type)
You'd need to provide, Visa fee, prove of accomodation, account statement and maybe *A letter of invitation(in ur case)..

@toluene23 diz ur story is not clear to me.
Please be straight forwad so that i/we can help you the best possible way.



Agent said diz agent said that!!!

You can do all diz yoursef Toluene, all diz agent people are very tricky...

toluene23:

Am not very well informed about job visa and d rest mahn.
Buh I'd suggest you go to the embassy and confirm yoursef as ure havin double mind about what your agent told you.
It won't do you any harm but a lot of good my friend.....

toluene23:
URgent!!! Question Two.
