Hello Everyone,

Like I said, I would post updates on my Visa Application Process on this forum so that prospective applicants can learn from it.

On the 4th of April, 2017, I went to the Embassy in Abuja with ALL my documents ready for submission and application as suggested my most seniors on this tread. Only for me to get there and for the Man who attended to me to tell me that I could only submit my University Certificates/Transcripts on that day and would be called once the verification of the credentials is complete (at the NUC). I appreciate all your comments. But for the purpose of those who would be applying this year, please note that the verification for certificates at NUC is still the first process to visa application. And for this stage of the application, I THINK SOMEONE CAN ACTUALLY DO THIS PART ON YOUR BEHALF. This is my personal opinion, as I was just given a form to fill for this process. The form contains the information of the Document Owner and the information of the person who is submitting these documents on his/her behalf. You can try it if Abuja is thousands of miles away.

The person who collected my certificate actually said the verification process at NUC should take between 3 Weeks to 1 Month. It would be a month by next tomorrow, I am yet to hear from them. I called the embassy, and the response I got was that my documents have not returned from the NUC.

Please house, does anyone know how to speed things up from NUC's end?

The next process, once they get my documents verified at NUC is the application proper which involves the submission/presentation of the documents mentioned up-thread. Many thanks.

Please how may I reach you I have the same problem
