Omiinii:
E-FORM A
The E-FORM A is a new development from the Central Bank of Nigeria to replace the old paper based Form A that was previously in use (If you have made school fees payment through the Bank in the past, the Form A was one of the forms you filled and submitted alongside other documents).
The FORM A (either E-based or paper based) is a requisite document for making Foreign payments through the Nigerian Banking System. The form comes with a UNIQUE Reference number that is generated with your application.
So this new development means you do not have to visit the Bank physically to initiate your school fees or other invisible remittance payments(medical bills, PTA/BTA, Subscription payment, foreign consultancy payments e.t.c.) It’s like filling an online form.
STEPS 1. Visit the website tradesystem.gov.ng 2. On successful loading of the website click on Applicant 3. You will see a page to login in with your username and password. Before you can login, down the page, you will see an option for “Register now”. For first time users, you will have to register using your BVN (Biometric Verification Number).
P.S: Your BVN profile must carry an accessible email and phone number which will receive an One Time Password (OTP) to complete your registration. If the email or phone number on your BVN is not accessible, you’ll need to visit the Bank (not necessarily Bank branch) where you enrolled for your BVN to update your phone number and email. One of the document you’ll require may include a court affidavit.
4. You will be required to fill in different information to complete your application. If you’re making payment for schools fees, the following documents in soft copies are required to be uploaded on the portal; 1. Passport Biodata page 2. Undergraduate Certificate(If application is for M.Sc degree school fees payment) 3. Letter of offer of Admission 4. Payment Advise from the institution (stating the bank details of the institution and tuition amount).
5. There are 4 sections to be completed when filling this E-Form A.
Section 1: Applicant Information Section 2: Trade Services Section 3: Bank Details (Here you input the Bank details of the school you’re paying to, these details will be on the payment advise sent to you by the school) Section 4: Attachments (Ensure to upload all the documents listed above, maximum file size per document is 2MB) Section 5: Preview Form
Some answers to some information requested on the portal under the Trade Services Section of the Application.
a. Is Valid for Forex: Choose Yes b. Trade Category: Educational Services (For those making school fees payment) c. Transaction purpose: Postgraduate Studies d. Tick educational fees
5. Select preferred financial Institution and branch for processing. It is advisable to choose a branch of the Bank closest to you, just in case you need to visit the Bank for follow up with copies of your documents just in case.
6. Preview form and submit.
This process is relatively new, so a lot of Banks are still trying to grasps it, so it’s advisable that once you’ve completed the application online, visit the bank branch that you chose to follow up and ensure that the branch has received and acted on your request.
Also not all bank branches have been profiled on the platform yet, so you may not see the branch closest to you, it’s also understandable.
Upon receipt of your application, the Bank will process based on availability of Forex (Foreign exchange). The Banks receive weekly, a certain amount of allocation of Forex from CBN. So requests are processed on first come first serve basis based on the available Forex. So it is advisable that you initiate your school fees payment at least two weeks before the deadline.

It's not a red flag. Kindly do 10,000 cad GIC from the fund if you can.
After tuition and gic. Officer will have no concern about lump sum. And your application response time will be faster.
Please mention it atleast 5 times in your SOP that you've paid your fees . It's a keyword . Please what is GIC |

If you wait, they will not debit you till jesus comes. Just go to your bank and let them know you have no time. I don't really think the system is automatic. I was in bank throughout yesterday before I got debited. I initiated another payment and was debited that same yesterday. I used UBA but access bank too is cool. If you're in lagos I will advice you go straight to their Headquarters. Thank God for UBA-MARINA. Please, how do I go about the CBN form A process. I saw that it takes 15 working days to process after submitting the form. Will they contact me after the 15 working days. Someone should please explain to me in details. Also is there any way to speed up the whole process such as one does not wait for 15 working days. Someone should please respond. Thanks 1 Like |

Viewoliver: Let her first go to the bank she initiated her BVN and link her email to it. Once her BVN is linked to her email, definitely the OTP will start dropping and there she progress with the e- Form A.
Please is it true one must have booked his or her flight before submitting form A and is it returning ticket or one way? |

Please what is the next step after getting PPR. I don't seem to understand the information I am seeing on VFS website HHH3: It is PPR guys.
August 22nd 2021 and first time Applicant.
PPR and Correspondence Letter came in around 12. 35 but I saw it around 2 this afternoon.
MBA Program at UCW. I started class since October and completed the Fall Term online. Winter Term started on the 10th January, 2022 but I had to apply for leave of absence because of the delay in Study Permit approval.
Please don't give up on yours, keep pursuing. I am over 40 and got it. Just keep your focus on Jehovah God in the process.
I came across this thread after my application and invitation to proceed on medicals. Medicals was updated since November 13 and I had to come here to understand if the delay in PPR was peculiar to me. From following examples here, I raised several web forms and sent emails (I stopped sending them since last week). I requested for GCMS Notes (I heard that for the first time here) but I guess I don't need that anymore. Few days ago, I sent a mail to my MP who hasn't replied yet. This is all God and I give Him all the glory.
I had encouragement from Makano and PapaObi when I needed to start using part of my funds ![wink](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/wink.png)
It has now ended in PRAISE to God.
