Nigerianmigrant:
Hello everyone, I enrolled for my passport some months ago and captured in October, I did it through the DIY route and I was able to make contact with an immigration officer that day and we exchanged numbers. I called her yesterday and she promised to help me check my production progress, she reached out this morning and said it was currently in Data uploading. I have been trying to call her but I haven’t been able to reach her. I’m just concerned and would like to know if that’s a green flag or I’ll still have to wait for months ?

Justbesure:

Please which center and when exactly in October did you captured

Nozino:



Should we start crying?

Please did you mean you summit 5/5 copies for each of your documents. As well did they accept the local government birth certificate or is it only NPC birth certificate they accept?

JimMumin:
Hi. I captured at NIS Ibadan too. I believe 3 copies are enough. Some might not be needed but just make it 3, you won't submit all.
I submitted Court Declaration of Age (Affidavit) for birth certificate and they didn't complain (the court was is in a far away town, so they couldn't suspect fake document).
My Origin certificate is from my Local Government of origin.

PrinceFola:
Please can someone go about the Gurantor-Form? Who can sign it for me please?

JimMumin:
You mean guarantor form, right?
Fill the relevant part and take it to court with your guarantor's passport photograph attached.
Depending on the court, you'd make payment and they will stamp and sign it for you. Then make photocopies.
I used my lecturer as guarantor. They asked about the relationship during interview which I told them, and nothing happened.
Remember to also collect the photocopy of your guarantor's International passport data page.Well noted with thanks sir.... So, that means my Gurantor must have international passport too. Thanks a lot!

Noraht:
Oh i paid someone 5k to collect it and give to my brother

Foxie:
Okay, that's you paid an officer to hand it over to your brother? Did they ask of authorisation letter? The reason I'm asking is I'm thinking of collecting my dad's own since he isn't in Lagos, but when I did mine, my thumbprint was used to activate the passport before I was able to go with it. That was earlier this year. I dunno if things have changed.

hello everyone, can one of my siblings be my guarantor?

dammywapes:
sure

aieromon:


I picked my uncle's passport in Abuja FOC on the recognition of presenting a valid ID that carried the same surname. The passport was activated without thumbprint capture.

Noraht:
Yea you have to thumb print actually.. but like with an authorization letter or so. A third party can get it on your behalf.. i just gave tye guy 5k and he collected and gave my brother

Justbesure:
No body is discussing about Abuja, precisely Gwagwalada center at all, what exactly is happing there? i captured since September, i am still waiting.

candance:

1. What website should I visit for the enrolment?
2. What documents should I have ready before visiting the site for registration?
3. Would my local government issued birth certificate suffice?
4. Is it true that people who apply via DIY get frustrated by the officials at the time of capture?
5. What is the average waiting period between capturing and collection of passports?

Gracia.

alakara:

For fast track, Osogbo is better.
If u don't O Y O.
I CAPTURED SINCE AUG 23RD, TILL NOW NO PASSPORT.

KangaIye:


Truth..... Very correct. Captured 29th of August, till now no passport too. But if you use an officer be rest assured to get it a week after capturing

DIY production and collection in Osogbo will test your patience
