Hi house,
How do i track my application online? I did my biometrics mid last week and I have not received any email by the embassy confirming receipt or anything for that matter.

Thanks

I just got off a call with UPS Nigeria customer care. They said the embassy released my package to them yesterday evening and I should get it soon.

Bayo0502:


Can you share their contact details? Thanks

frankmoney:
pls how did you apply

Awesomeosas:
Gurus in the house, please I got this mail from the embassy and I included my passport. I really don’t know what the outcome will be. Any idea please

jaxeri:


Congrats brother

Awesomeosas:


Does it mean approve or what? Honestly my heart is pounding

jaxeri:


Most of the time such message means approval. Arrange for delivery.

Awesomeosas:


Okay. I have already made arrangement with DHL to pick it up. I just pray it comes out successful

jaxeri:


Your appeal was fast o. How many weeks?

Awesomeosas:


I submitted on 23rd of august and I go the mail today 30th august

jaxeri:


Wow, that's really fast. Share us the good news tomorrow.

Pascal122:


Okay so I've gotten the letter. The reasons were just as I feared.

Let me state that piggyvest is not acceptable for proof of living expenses. The Irish embassy doesn't accept microfinance bank statements and piggyvest operates as one. Especially if you're self sponsored. Don't use piggyvest please.

However, they also added more reasons for me. More evidence to explain gap, observe conditions, insufficient employment history, explain reason for deviating with more evidence, and authenticity of documents.

So I have a lot on my plate for the appeal.

Djdimeji:


How far Pascal??

Bro, initially u are not suppose to send your appeal with your passport...it's written on their website, they wud Request for ur passport themselves once they are through with checking your appeal! I don't want to scare you buh this is the same message I received when I sent in my appeal last year though i did not include my passport! It wud end with praise..

Rueel:
Hi everyone, please I need your help. I submitted my documents on the 5th of July to travel in October. On the visit section they’re in July 17 and mine isn’t there. What could be the issue pls?

Paulicface:


Check previous release, say last weeks own.

Just submitted an application online for my younger brother. Now I am trying to book an appointment for him to submit his documents and the biometric, but the VFS website wants me to pay the visa fee online.

Do I need to pay the visa fee online on the VFS website or pay at the VFS center on the day of the appointment? Also, is it compulsory to sign up for courier or can he pick up his passport by himself when it is ready?

oludee7:


You will pay a fee at the point of booking and also at the VFS center when you submit. Both amounted to more than 100k for me. I am not sure it is compulsory to pay for courier but it is advisable, especially if you are submitting at the VFS in Lagos (or not Abuja where the embassy is). I am not so sure too if you are allowed to walk into the embassy for visa matters too. You could make a call to confirm.

@Pascal122 and @Awesomeosas how did your appeal go? I am appeal stage also. I did vfs on the 13th of July, got my decision on the 22nd of August stating refusal and my documents arrived by ups on the 1st of Sept. I sometimes feel the VOs don't go through the documents properly or vfs did not send it. Most of the things they stated for my refusal were provided, maybe except enough employment history evidence.
