Most people underestimate how developed Russia is. Very few countries in the world surpassed that country in terms of development

Lmao..
The last time I was here, $ was 750

Not trying to be insensitive but what's the name of that her bag?

Do I need an appointment to legalise my document at ministry of education and foreign affairs.
I have an appointment to legalize my doc at portugal embassy in August.
When can I do the moe authentication.
I just need guidance

You don't need an appointment.
Please help with the link for legalization of documents.

Tbexy:
Please I have an appointment for the 27th of June for a work visa at VFS lagos. But i need an appointment for legalizing my PCC at the embassy before then. Please who can help me. You can email me at ihemeprogress@gmail.com

There's no need to legalize it.
It will be legalized at the embassy after you have submitted your applications.


After you have successfully gotten the PCC, authenticate it at MOFA and submit it like that at VFS on the 27th of June.

printemps:
Na so I see the fee on their website oh!

They don’t used to pay anything before.
It’s only on the day of appointment you pay for everything.

If it’s for short stay, I’ll understand that you will pay a certain amount of money while booking for appointments.

baba4thegehs:
That's the visa application fee I think?

printemps:
Tried booking minutes ago, found 28th of June availability after filling information to proceed couldn't find the date anymore and tried other dates and months, nothing. VFS and their websites are seemingly playing mind tricks on applicants.

When did they start paying for Job seeker appointment online?

Used to free before

hunee:
Just for clarity, Job seeker visa falls under national visas and it has to be submitted only in Abuja ,kindly correspond.

Stop sharing wrong info.
It can be submitted in both Lagos and Abuja

Hello House
Visa granted.
Applied March 21, 2024
Received passport via courier April 24, 2024

Congratulations Boss!
I’m so happy for you. And once again, thanks for the previous information.

Did you do any new thing from your first time apart from additional documents?

vibrant99:
STOP APPEALING JSV DENIAL>>>>>> STOP APPEALING< STOP STOP STP!!!!!

Why?

MadeMan01:
The appeal has to be sent where you submitted at VFS. You will be charged for appeal at VFS
That is why I re-applied as the money called for me was almost same as new application.
And VFS are not straight forward. You can send someone there and they will ask for something not with the person.
I actually sent someone there, they asked for original Refusal letter with the Embassy stamp that was with me in Lagos. I had attached copy of the refusal letter with my appeal docs to a friend in Abuja. I was pissed. it is not mentioned anywhere on their website. I just cancelled my appeal and re-applied. I was lucky Abuja VFS portal opened in first week of February for JSV when I got my refusal.

Oh thank you.
They just replied my mail this morning that I'll submit the appeal at vfs Abuja or Lagos.
I'll go myself.

MadeMan01:
Oh. That was an error on your part. It's was too early to ask. The website and other forums says it's between 30-90 days to get a decision. Some people may be lucky to get in less.

They will send your passport to you by DHL with a reason for refusal letter in Portuguese inside. Look at the letter and note which box is ticked or marked, then translate on Google translator to know exact reason

Good day boss.
Do you have an idea if someone can submit my appeal letter and other supporting documents on my behalf at the embassy?

I have been sending mails to the consulate, they are not responding.

Those ferry are good and have safety vest which is given to every passenger and it's mandatory to wear them before boarding.

DO NOT use a speed boat or canoe because these waters could get very turbulent waves sometimes.

Thanks boss
Exactly what the guys working there told me that we shouldn't attempt using speed boat.

It was a smooth sail and the life vest was almost new too.

kingreign:
😆 Hope you enjoyed the trip and you took pictures of the beautiful water sceneries?

I didn’t take pictures my boss.

No.1 it was getting dark.
No.2 The news of that actor that died yesterday made me got a little bit scared sha. Hahahah

This was it the ticked part.

It was really a big error on my part.
What’s the link to apply for for appointment?
If I apply again, do you think this present refusal won’t affect future applications?

MadeMan01:
Hello bro,
Sorry for the refusal. Do t give up. Re-apply.

In my case I tried to appeal but VFS told me I would pay appeal fees which was almost equal to new application, so I did not appeal again. Luckily for me the day February 6 2024, I got my refusal, VFS Abuja portal was open, I was able to book again against March 21 ,2024 so I have enough time to gather extra support documents and also, i wanted to reapply in Lagos to avoid spending air fare and hotel Costa to Abuja. However from that Feb 6 till date , I have not heard of VFS open for appointment in Lagos or Abuja. So I ended up travelling again to Abuja on March 20, did VFS application on March 21 and returned to Lagos on March 21. This week is the third week since I applied, so I am optimistic. My first refusal came in 6 days from application, today is 18 days from my second application.

I noticed when I first applied,most of the people attending to clients were new trainees. I knew because they kept moving them from desk to desk and I over heard a supervisor telling them that one someone will come and train them in another room and some of the girls at the desk said, " Thank God" , meaning they were not ready in confidence on what they were expected to do. What annoyed was that the experienced lady who attended to me first time removed some of my docs like past UK, France and Portugal visas and said its nit necessary, that Portugal embassy has my records . I also think my letter my not have been good enough.
In my second application, nothing was removed, the woman who attended to me did not remove anything.

Check your PCC , if it is not expired, reapply if you can get appointment, but VFS now has become something else to get appointment date. I was lucky I booked the Abuja date for appointment as I was thinking if I get Lagos date, I will ignore the Abuja appointment, but I have not been able to get Lagos appointment. Even someone who was willing to exchange or sell her appointment to me, VFS said appointment was not transferable, so I went to Abuja. I am hoping for the best

Thanks for the detailed response.
In my own case, I think I was the cause of the refusal due to my impatience.

I submitted my documents at the vfs March, 25th, so since I didn’t hear from them since that day, I sent them a mail yesterday evening, and in less than an hr, I got a rejection mail.

It came as shock to me as to why they will review my documents and supporting documents in less than an hr.

I just want to know the status of my visa application and not the decision.

They just sent a mail in less than an hr.

How am I going to get the passport back? Will they send it to the vfs or what?

And again, all my documents were completed. Even add a lot of extra documents. I’m confused on what to give them again.

MadeMan01:
Thank you for the advise.
Yes I am appealing the decision and including everything I have. I was given 15 days to appeal I will send in my appeal before Thursday

Boss please reply
