Try and get there as early as 7:30 provided all your documents are complete and duly signed where necessary. Do your printing and photocopies before getting there unless you have no problem paying N100 for photocopy and N500 for printing. Also type your application letter as handwritten will be rejected.

Gate will be opened few minutes after 8am, there are some business centres/kiosk outside there, make sure you go there and buy file (N500), the man will help you arrange your documents in the file and staple your 2 passport photos (he will charge you a token for it)

People may be writing names as they arrive, it's useless. Just make sure you stay close to the entrance, as soon as they open the gate everybody will rush in and queue inside (in front of servicom), fight for a good spot as they will be calling "next person" into the office and your name will be registered and you'll be given a number.

Try and submit your file immediately after writing your name, they will only tell you to go and sit down after writing your name because you're DIY, you'll just notice they're bringing files and calling people in while you will sit there till they close.

Once you successfully submit your file at servicom, all you have to do is wait for your turn. Good luck.

Nobody asked me for a dime so I didn't pay shishi, I had to go and sign a document in sagamu high court so I didn't submit my file on time so I was among the last set and I left around 6:30 - 7pm. Collection date is approximately 2 months from capturing day, it may be less for those that were attended to early

Kingflo300:

Captured April 14th but yet to collect (not DIY)...I think they are still on January, you can go to the pco to lay your complaints.
Have you tried tracking it online to see what stage the application is?

Lisaint:

2. I want to do a new passport for my wife and children, documents required,cost and processes to follow.

AfonjaConehead:

Nin,normal renewal fee and what they call migration fee since it's more than 6 months before expiry...
Know how you go about it o

Handey:


How much is the migration fee?
Also how do I go about the fresh passport registration for my wife and children?

horshyjnr:

I registered online for my renewal,paid 25k and additional 1k for charges totalling 26k..Picked 12th of April as my capturing date and making sure I made photocopies of all necessary documents i have with me from home.I was the last person to be attended to around 7:50pm on that day.Abeokuta seems friendly generally though and hopefully my passport should be out by end of this month.

purity2all:
I collected my passport today..


I captured January 11th .

Strictly DIY, didn't give anyone a dime.

Did it in Alausa.

Big thank you to everyone here who helped in providing the needed guidance.

nikkyakins:
do u think abeokuta will be better than alimosho lagos state? I live in sango

Sonicroyel:


Captured same day as you too still that same festac office paid 20k with one bottle of vitamilk for FasTrack today I'm hearing no booklet

horshyjnr:

Well.. you must consider checking of your application too since it's DIY,so I guess Abeokuta should be better than Alimosho

Kingflo300:

When did they say you can come for collection after paying for fast track ?

nikkyakins:
checking applications as how can u do it online?

MadeMan01:


To follow up on your application and passport. Alimosho is far from Sango compared to Abeokuta. Can you easily go to Alimosho to be following up or is Abeokuta passport office nearer to you

nikkyakins:
alimosho is am just looking for a place with good prospect

Sonicroyel:


She said 2weeks it's over 2 months now!!
I need this stuff before November!!!
Now no booklet

Kingflo300:

From my understanding I think all applications need to be approved at Abuja before they can be issued/printed, so if your application is at the stage of awaiting approval then majority of them can't really do anything but wait till it has been approved, except for those officers that have connect at Abuja that can speed up the approval. After the awaiting approval stage, one will still enter the queue for issuance which is the stage majority of officers have access to speed it up for you.

ekitimanalways:

In this type of situation, she does have to reapply.
Correction of names, arrangement,etc, only applicable to produced passport... Check again.

Sonicroyel:


So it's a waiting game rn ??
Nothing more ?

Kingflo300:

It's true there's shortage of booklet but that doesnt mean there's no booklet at all, so if you have your plug and your application has passed the awaiting approval stage then it won't be impossible for you to fast track it. Since you need yours before November then you still have sometime, just give like a month (max 2 months) then press hard, so if it's due to awaiting approval stage that is the cause then it should have passed that stage by then, meaning it's in a workable stage which your plug should be able to help except your plug done flex the money and can not settle those handling issuance anymore

Mukah1234:


No problem. You can go for capturing at any date[sub][/sub] after your initial capturing date.

Sonicroyel:


Thanks for the breakdown and advice!!
How do u plan on getting yours too will u just wait ?
