Okay, thanks.

krcboy:
i did it via the immigration officers and paid 45k

Woah! When did you first make your application before you were given a capture date?

krcboy:
Hello NLS, I was captured on the 1st of March 2022 at Alausa Passport Office, and on a print out I was given, It said Collection date will be on the 10 of March 2022. Is there a guarantee that I will get it exactly on the said date or what do I do? do I wait till im contacted? or do I go on the said date and see if its ready? Note : Its not DIY. Thank you .

You should go on the collection day, was it through an agent? How much did you pay please?

Solatium:
How many photocopies of the following are needed to make renewal.
1..NIN SLIP.
2... PASSPORT DATA PAGE.
3....RENEWAL DOCUMENTS i e PAYMENT RECEIPT, APPLICATION PRINTOUT & APPOINTMENT SLIP.
and lastly do they require any photocopy of any expired Visa on that passport.
thank you

To be on the safe side, make 2 copies each of 1, and 2. I brought 2 from home but my agent did the photocopies himself. I am sure others will chip in.

From your post in reply to me, I thought you had done your renewal at Ikoyi already. If you choose Alausa now, won't you have to pay another renewal fee? Someone suggested I go to Abeokuta I can do everything in one day and get my passport asap.

Unfortunately I had already paid and chose Ikoyi as processing center being the one closest to me, before I got that information. I was given 12th April for capturing but after reading comments and seeing that a reschedule is possible I went back to the portal and was able to reschedule to 31st March. It is still far but better than my first date.

Another concern I have is that, once you are captured in their system via online application and you have paid, it may be hard to apply and pay again for a different state/center. I don't know but this has been on my mind. With the fuel scarcity and traffic gridlock all over Lagos I don't even want to start stressing about changing processing center now to another center or state

I am on the process of renewal at Ikoyi, capture date is still April 11th. I just wanted to confirm if Ikeja is faster, so I can do my son's passport there.

Can someone who did the passport renewal at Alausa of recent, say last week confirm how it works there. I heard it's faster at Alausa, compared to Ikoyi. I was given 11th of April for capturing at Ikoyi.

Toplap:
This was very helpful, thank you. No vex, please can you list out all the documents you needed for a renewal?

I am doing a renewal too and I have gone through some pages of this thread to be sure, I show up with all the required documents, but I keep seeing conflicting information.

One post said birth certificate, state of origin and acknowledgement slip. Another post said it wasn't necessary except for fresh passports. Since mine is renewal at the same center where you did yours, you may be the best person to ask, so please help me.

I was at Ikoyi last week for renewal. You will need your NIN slip, make copies of it. 3 passport photographs and your old passport, the biodata page of your old passport. I will advise you make copies from home. You will also need to write a letter to the PCO on an A4 paper, request for a renewal of your passport.

Visa Alert!!!
Hehehe I've longed to type this since I discovered Nairaland in September 2020 when my husband was waiting for his second canadian visa application which he got a refusal. I was a strong follower of the Canada students thread.
I am from Kenya and I told myself wherever Nigerians are going we will go. That's how we started our journey for UK Student visa which never went far as we didn't have the amount required in bank statement.
My second option was to apply for Skilled visa which actually should have been my 1st option.
I did blind application to companies that were offering sponsorship and I got an offer and a CoS.
Timeline.

Visa Application 12/1/2022
Biometrics 14/1/2022
Tls email 26/1/2022
DHL collection 27/1/2022.
All info was gotten from this thread and less from UKVO.gov website. Truly go through the pages, you won't miss any details.
Thank you Nigerians, we did it!!!

And to the famous quote which I couldn't wait to write
"What God cannot do doesn't exist!"

Congratulations

Please who can throw more light on this? Some of these agencies might be scam and rip people off the £600

Top visa an medlives are scam. Even the famous IANs, alot of people are complaining they haven't heard anything from them after paying.

Chiggsglover:

There's dietitian, nutritionist, engineers, quality assurance, social care for those with Sociology, Psychology, Occupational therapy, nurses, doctor, health care assistants....all those jobs that are in the sciences are very hot cake here. These are the jobs that have prospects in only teaching after studies in Nigeria. Currently theres employment permit for these now.

NewBea:
So I've got a job offer and all. But I'm currently in the UK in a visitor visa. How can i convert it to tier 2 visa without going back to Nigeria and applying again?

I sent you a message please

yemi1504:
But if the person's BP is low nko?

A lady BP was low yesterday, from her physical appearance she looks like a SS. She was refused the vaccine. So I guess it is both ways

When you fill the form online, you get questions like "Do you have any known health condition
Hypertension is one of the listed health condition.
At the health center, they check your bp before administering the vaccine. An elderly man was refused the vaccine because it showed his BP was high.
I had mine today, took the Astrazeneca. So far I feel feverish and my arm hurts and I am always hungry

Thanks uzland for the initiative, I was told it's only recruiting agencies that can help get jobs as HCA.
Has anyone gotten sponsorship for senior care assistant or HCA.

Chiggsglover:
They have to find a way to get the right vaccine for free!
With the plenty money I have now, I'm gonna get the vaccine for free. If I'm doing the Test for covid, it's free!
If I want to do HIV test, free!!!
If I need HIV or sti treatment, free!!
If I want condoms, I just walk to the nearest Pharmacy and pick it up for Free!!!

Then we're asking people that at least 50% live in poverty based on UN standard to pay for the Vaccine. That's wrong!
People will have to choose between food and vaccine. Theyll rather feed themselves than look for vaccine for an infection that's yet to come. Starvation is knocking at the door everyday

It's so sad honestly, it's so sad Nigerians are being governed by such cruel people.

Chiggsglover:
My office asked me yesterday if I'm up for the Vaccine, I SAID YES!

If I was in Nigeria, ill be far at the back.
There's tendency for the Nigeria leaders to use the right vaccine on Live TV and distribute vaccine that has not validated.
I don't trust where I come from o.
You guys should open your eyes and demand for the right vaccine. They might even start selling it. Hian!

Allegedly The Minister of Finance said that Nigerian government will pay for vaccination of 50% of residents —
I am very sure they will sort themselves and their loved ones first, and do as you said.

Hey guys, how are y'all doing??

It's a freezing 8 Degrees here now and it's not funny. You don't want to wake up and leave the comfort of your bed cos once you step outside, it's hell in a freezing way.

But we gats keep chasing the paper.

So I was talking to some Nairalanders here and for the first time, it actually dawned on me; the bold step I took. Like a lot of you have mentioned me on thread and commended my bravery for a female but only now did it dawn on me.

How I was able to quit my job, how I was able to part with my life's savings, how I was able to push through despite being scared as per visa on arrival, how I was able to make a trip alone to a place I knew nobody, how I was able to keep it together during the trying times.

Well look at me now! See how far God has brought me!

[b][/b]I'm writing this to encourage those currently planning to make a move to whatever country.[b]

See, the easiest part is applying trust me. It starts getting hard at quitting your job no matter what it is. I was earning a meagre 60k per month with so much stress and less appreciation. However, knowing I at least had something was at the time more comforting than the unknown.

The authentication part is easy. If you don't stay in Abuja, you may procastinate and ask yourself questions but once you make the trip, the rest is easy.

Next, parting with your money. I swear you would turn FBI and your faith will skyrocket by force. It's like, shey I no go just hol this one wey I dey see?

Then come leaving proper. The traveling and plane ride is exciting oh and you'll thank God a million times especially. Then you land and it hits you....only me, no work, which way....lol.

But from then on, as long as you preserve and keep at it, it only gets better.

All the best people

Picture: Right now in class. Lol

Thanks

The way I look at you when you start Conspiracy theory about the Vaccine.

I have heard all sorts of conspiracy theories on the vaccine. It's so laughable

Following...

Chiggsglover:
For those of you thinking I arranged my room specifically for this shoot, dont stress yourself, lots of places to hide away your things so it's easy to keep clean and neat.

I only made my bed and that's easy with the heavy duvet.

Dont mind me, I have started using candles, you people should come and save me o

This is beautiful
