Sorry, I may not have an answer to that because I haven't gone for legalisation yet, I have an appointment slated for that next month. I can only provide answers to any question related to Pre enrolment, Authentication and translation. Thanks.

Mubjames:

irisher:

Hello Blawjj,

I can. Send me a dm.

irisher:
Please, does anybody have idea if someone can be able to get a short stay Study Visa without pre enrollment being validated.
I have Test to attend at Italy, and my pre enrollment isn't yet validated by the University.
Any suggestions on how to tackle this issue will be appreciated! Thanks.

Send me a dm.

For those going for legalization, take note that the legalization of affidavits and non-academic documents at the Consulate costs N21,000 each.
Legalization of academic documents is free.

Good day guys.. Nice work...I'm new here though I have been following people's thread and it has been helpful.

1. The same documents that you authenticated in Abuja i.e Academic and Birth docs.

2. You will be asked to come back after some few days to collect your DOV.

3. Make sure you go with both. They can ask for either especially the one from MFA.

Pls, are we to legalize the documents required for scholarships too?

1. Family composition
2. Declaration family income and assets
3. Bank balance certificates


Thanks for the anticipated response.

@Blawjj.... Thank you for your response...

I have receipt for Ministry of Foreign Affairs but it’s only sticker attached to my docs I have for the Ministry of Education.. The Agent I used said they don’t issue for Min of Education and non of his client has ever had any issues with their legalization.... The he agent was introduced to me by the official translator at TBS in Lagos....And they assured me...

Everything looks set.... Just to be double sure of all my documents.

For the DOV...I meant if I would fill a form on that day before going back there to pick it up.....

Thanks

I believe they only ask for your MFA receipt. After legalization, you will be asked to come back a week later for your DOV. No need to fill any form as long as you have pre-enrolled on the Universitaly website, and printed the summary.

No, the Italian Consulate in Nigeria no longer legalize any of those documents that you mentioned.

The family income document can however be legalized in Rome. And this is only possible for those who have received a visa and can travel to Italy to get it done, because it cannot be done by proxy.

mrrandomguy:
The call is out for the Italian government scholarship.
https://studyinitaly.esteri.it/en/call-for-procedure

... yeah, but its age restricted. I think the max age requested is 28years

did your agent give u the receipt of the remita generated during the authentication process? if yes, that can serve as ur payment receipt. He is right, the ministry of education don't give a receipt, even the receipt given at the ministry of foreign affairs, I paid an extra 500naira at the ministry before the madam issuing receipt at the 4th floor could give me one. U could see the level of corruption in Naija

Thanks for your kind response. I really appreciate it.

To futher clear my doubts can you help me answer these questions..

1. Is there no need to authenticate any of the scholarship document with MFA or MOE?

2. Currently, the application for some regional scholarship is ongoing. If visa approval do not meet up with the deadline of those scholarship. How will one go about it? Since, those documents are required to be uploaded on the portal during application.

Can you pls add me up to the whatsapp group, you once talked about ?

Many thanks!�

Thank you bro

Yes it’s age restricted....I tried applying but I couldn’t proceed to the next stage as they clearly told me I did not meet up with their age requirements.....

Engrkia:

How did you get the Declaration of income and asset documents?

Your mail address bro ...?

Blawjj:


Email me.

Please if you are going for Bachelor's academic year 2021/2022 kindly signify let's link up

mrrandomguy:

How did you get the Declaration of income and asset documents?

There is a format for it. You can use to prepare yours.

@Blawjj: What’s your mail address ?

Hello, I applied for a course but I have not received any update from my University about acceptance or rejection, but I got my pre enrollment summary. Please, does it mean that I have been accepted and should I move on to apply for visa? Or should I wait for the university to publish list of selected students

obinna11:

You must go to Abuja, better still if you have someone in Abuja, send your documents to him with your ID card ( National ID, Voters Card or Driving License), he can do it on your behalf.

Any need to authenticate a UK bachelor degree certificate at the ministry of education and foreign affairs?

Any need to authenticate a UK bachelor degree certificate at the ministry of education and foreign affairs?

Not sure because i had a degree outside and i was asked to authenticate and notarize it in the country i earned it (I also legalized it there). But ask around sha, ur case might be different

Does the translated documents need to be authenticated as well?

Sam2424:
@Blawjj: What’s your mail address ?

Dm me via Nairaland

Mcgeek:

No, MoE only has a jurisdiction over degrees obtained in Nigeria. They therefore cannot authenticate a foreign degree certificate.

Fayfay2003:
Does the translated documents need to be authenticated as well?

Of course not. The translated copies are just meant for the purposes of record keeping at the Consulate.

You only need to authenticate original and photocopy of your academic and non-academic docs (and not the translated copies).
