MOE requires you to present your original degree certificate and transcript before they can be legalized

Hello guys,
I got accepted for cybersecurity in Sapienza. Is there anyone going to Sapienza or got admitted.
Also, I plan on applying for the regional scholarship, the documents required are income certificate, family composition certificate, and declaration of property and assets certificate. Please who knows the right agency to get these documents in Abuja?
Your help is required Thanks.

My lodge is close to sapienza

timaya4all:

K. On step C, which docs are to be uploaded? Translated docs? There's option for DOV to be uploaded, how do we do this

Step C requires DOV which only the embassy can give you.

As soon as the embassy resumes, the workload on translation and legalization will be very high.

My advice is do your legalization now. Although the crowd is growing daily at the MOE.

I can handle that, it's none appearance. Call 08198649458

Good day all, I was born in 1988. Do I need birth certificate and attestation of birth or only attestation and court affidavit suffices.

Also, is primary school cert. included in the documents for pre enrolment and visa application.

Those born before 1992, can get a birth certification from national population commission in any state using an attestation of birth certificate from the court, preferably from the same state.

So what you need for visa application is the NPC document, which you need to legalize at min of foreign affairs. I can assist you wit that for 2k.

Well yes I spoke with Krysten for close to one hour via whatsapp.

If you are sponsoring yourself, in a way, it is even better than if you are doing business because of the difficulties authenticating people who are using business as their means of sponsorship..

However their is perhaps 3 ways to justify finances, although the boundaries are not fixed because it is possible that you could fit into two or all the 3 categories simultaneously. But it is important you know why each category is important... I will list them the way you may less likely be denied visa.

A). You have a JOB {Full time employment) . Under this category, which many people look down on, you are even more likely to get the visa. If you study the requirement for Schengen visa for study in general, you will discover every country in Europe have slightly different requirements. Germany in particular require a huge amount deposited in your account, while Italy and Spain, which have close borders to Africa, have some more flexible African tendencies. They use the word PROOF OF SUSTENANCE, which is not necessarily a proof of CASH ON GROUND. If you don't have all the cash on ground, your job could be a guarantee that you are still employed, and you won't be a liability when you get there, and some salary allowance or study allowance money will still be coming to you, even if it is not expressively stated, you can borrow salary advance if need be. And that is why fulltime staff must take study leave or leave in general or some form of permission to show embassy that you may still be employed to that job, while schooling, but if you can't produce that, it will not be a good idea to tell embassy that you are resigning for your job, it will be better to keep quiet about that.... unless you really have option B and/or C as alternative.

B) You have a contract Job (Parttime employment) . Your employment letter will indicate whether you are working fulltime and entitled to things like leave, or whether you are working on contract basis, like per hour basis, and not entitled to leave and so on but a fixed negotiated money. I got my visa based under this category as I was working online. I had less than 1 million in my account, approximately E2000, but was able to demonstrate with my employment contract letter, salary account and payslip of 6 months, how much I was earning, that the job was online and when I get to Italy I will still continue to do my contract job online.

C) You are doing business.... only God knows there are perhaps many things people do to earn money business wise, but it is difficult if you do not have official documents to justify what kind of business you do. And again, if your account is suspected of being inflated unnecessarily (being assisted by a thirdparty deposit to inflate your account), you could be denied visa. Your account statement will show the names of people who deposited money into your account... but if organizations deposited money into your account is a better proof of doing business. But you could be a landlord or whatsoever, so a proof of business seemed easiest but also complicated in some ways.

So in conclusion, I advised Krysten, that I always advise anyone who is doing business but also have job, to include the account statement and letter of employment and payslips for the job and along with that of the business, because in nutshell OYIBO people will believe you more if you have a job. You would look like a very responsible fella... infact integrity is what they are looking for and the ability to authenticate what you do, that you are geniune... than all the cash you have in your account. If you know you have a business, they will take note of that better, if you also show them the job you are doing which gives them a clear picture how you obtain your finances to be a business man, it is even better. Because again experience counts.

God's son nailed it on FINANCIALS.

Thank you Dencotext, I hope this will help if you fall into any category of income stream.

It is good to hear from God's son from Italy.

Knaruto:


Good morning Sir.. So that means that an account balance of €7,000 apart fro school fees is enough for them to grant me Visa right?

My friend, I spoke with dencoat for about an hour regarding visa application documents to Italy.

First, based on financials:

IF YOU'RE SPONSORING YOURSELF: Please show proof of work and steady income and back it up with a PAID study leave document. Here's the deal. The documents proof that you have an income stream AND A SUITABLE MEWNS OF SUSTAINANCE WHILE YOU'RE STUDYING.

IF YOUR PARENT(DAD) ARE SPONSORING YOU: you can submit his sponsoring account statement that has bulk money say 7000€ upwards AND a LEGALISED BIRTH CERTIFICATE OR NATIONAL POPULATION CERTIFICATE

IF YOUR PARENT(MUM) ARE SPONSORING YOU: You can submit THE ABOVE STATED AND LEGALIZED CERTIFICATE OF MARRIAGE.

IF the sponsor is from your maternal side,:
First, have the following documents: her previous documents with same surname as your maternal relation, then the marriage certified that link her name to your father and the change of name court affidavits and newspaper broadcast, both original and photocopy, ALL LEGALIZED.

So which ever class you fall in, I hope this information help you get it right on financials

Good day

Dencotext:
Please send me an email via nairaland so we can exchange contacts and chat... And let me know here when you did it.

Dencotext, I sent you a mail. My name is krysten. I want clarification on declaration of value exemption I got from my school.

Hello house, has anyone received a declaration of value exemption letter from their school.

How do I use mine

What is the minimum amount I need to present for the visa application

Skymoore1004:
Per year? Or whole duration?

The entire study, it's 1yr sir

Dencotext:
Hi all,

After many years, God's favorite pikin is in the forum once more to give you guys a little advice.

Well I am in Italy now. If you are going to do your master, and moreover if you are sponsoring yourself, then you do not need to attach any birth certificate from NPC... that was my case. I know my rights so when the (African lady) staff from Italian consular office in Abuja called me on phone asking that I must also bring my birth certificate, I made sure she understood that it did not apply to me... she should go and ask her consular officer... who when he came on the phone told her (after asking me some questions) that it is not applicable to people in my category.

Why is it applicable and when is it not applicable? Although you could choose to do it anyway if you want when when it is not applicable.

If you are being sponsored by your family (you know a thirdparty sponsorship is not allowed) then it is a must that you should attach your birth certificate, even if you are going to do your master degree.

I once worked online with a university and we review docs coming in from allover the world, so I have a firsthand knowledge on how documentation verification exercise is carried out in general, it is not magical... the last person I counseled was a girl who was denied visa here at the Italian embassy in Lagos and she contacted me. By the time I reviewed how she packaged the visa that was denied, and pointed out the mistakes made and how to correct them, she repackaged the visa application as instructed and today she is in Italy. The funny thing is that no two person case that are denied visa may be exactly identical, because our packages are reviewed based on the categories we fit in, but basically there is two major categories which are
1. whether you are sponsoring yourself
2. or whether another person is sponsoring you
Any one of these two methods greatly change the way your application for student visa would be reviewed. The greatest example being the use of birth certificate not being necessary for those sponsoring themselves (even if you are not going to do a master degree). But becomes absolutely necessary for those who someone else may be sponsoring them, because the names of the one who is supposed to be your parent is stated on the birth certificate and it gives the reviewing officer facts that the person sponsoring you is your father or mother if it corresponds with name on the birth certificate. If it does not, and an uncle or brother is sponsoring you, the birth certificate incriminates you, so you have to attach court declaration of guardian/sponsorship and also prove the family connection that exist between you and that member. If you fail to add extra documents apart from the court declaration, to prove the family connections, the visa reviewer may be unable to prove that they are your relatives, and so the person would be considered to be a thirdparty. And your visa application would be denied.

In the case of this girl that was denied visa, she was almost screaming at me on the phone that it was indeed her father who was sponsoring her (actually the person was by law her step father, because the mother remarried after the death of her father). But I made her understand how blind her argument was because the visa office would not know this fact, unless your father's name on the birth certificate matches your step father's name, but as it is, they are different. So no matter the court declaration that he is your guardian, it would not make sense. The visa office can only accept family sponsorship, which is a bit different from someone undertaking to sponsor you, that is why guardianship is highly suspicious. So I will add the third category
3. the trickish issue of guardianship

For a guardian to qualify as family and not a thirdparty, you must attach extra documents. There must be a legal or court declaration of sponsorship, and the second document should tackle the motive why they are sponsoring... like the fact they are (1) your husband (2) adopted parents (3) step father (4) relatives or brethren... outside these, someone with no family or legal tie is automatically a thirdparty. And again, each of these subcategories comes with some challenges to prove them. I will only single out two for explanations.... THE CASE OF A STEP FATHER AND THE CASE OF HUSBAND.

Having processed documents for my online university, we can only accept the name change of ladies that got married if they also attach their marriage certificate to explain why their academic documents bears a different surname from their current passport or ID. In that case, no need for court affidavit for name change, because marriage is a legal institution covered by the certificate.

In the case of a step father, as I had to think for some hours or days before I counseled that girl, the process of reviewing is about how legal and convincing your documents are. It made the greatest sense to me, who was well trained to review documents coming into my university from allover the world, that a step father proof can be proven systematically by including the following documents.... a) your birth certificate, which has your late father's name, and mother's name on it (that would be sufficient and more satisfactory than attaching their marriage certificate) b) the death certificate of your late father, c) the new marriage certificate of your mother to your step father d) a commitment letter of sponsorship from the court.... because in truth a step father, who did not born you, is not legally mandated to be your sponsor if they choose not to, so they must commit themselves legally to be considered your custodian. When this girl followed this series of inexplicable steps which I recommended for her, and presented all these documents, along with a letter of apology acknowledging that she realized why she was denied visa based on that fact.... she was granted the visa. She complained that the period to appeal has passed, but I kept reminding her that the visa application was not supposed to interfere with people's destiny if they meet the requirement...so if your university gives you admission, you can still arrive anytime during the first semester which last for about 4 to 6 months.

Thank you for the detailed response.

Skymoore1004:
How much is the tuition please?

6,800€, got a 25% scholarship and 10% full tuition discount.
That brings it to 4,590€

In addition, what's the minimum amount I need to have in my account for the visa application.

Thank you house
