If you apply for an e-visa, you should get it within days...... But if you want sticker visas, it takes weeks.......

Best to apply ASAP (for e-visa)........

Hello. Please quote me as soon you are able to sort out this dilemma. I'm also having the same problem.

Out of curiosity, is your NIN in the incorrect or correct name? Thanks

My NIN was in the "incorrect" data. I visited an NIN registration office near me to update it to the correct information. This is your first step.

With benefit of hindsight, I will advise anyone who really want to do this to:

a. Update your NIN
b. Visit Nigeria (using a British passport with visa or current passport/travel certificate) and go to Abuja to apply for correction of data in Abuja (at the source).
c. Travel back to the UK (without the renewed passport because it take a long time)
d. Get a trusted person to bring the new passport for you or visit Nigeria again on a visa/travel cert and then come back with the updated passport.

Please where can I register for NIN in the UK. Just need to sort this out so I can prepare to renew the naija passport.

Actually, she has a couple of options:
a. Go to Kings Cross, take the Eurostar to France. Navigate to Calais. Get on a dinghy ⛵️ and return to Dover. Throw away her passport. Claim asylum.

b. Remain where she is. Identify as ABCQRT+++. Remind the authorities that she can’t go back to her home country because she will be killed or imprisoned (by virtue of her new-found real self. Done.
So, you see. She has lots of options.

PS: While typing this reply, I couldn’t find my taste organ. Just when I was about to click ‘submit’, I found the cheeky organ snugly hidden in a corner of my buccal cavity.
You need yoyo bitters to clear your taste bud 😂

Hello Guys,

Please, what is the most reliable and also cost-effective means of sending something like a single electronic Android Tablet to Lagos, Nigeria?
I intend to send it as a gift, door-to-door that doesn't involve the recipient paying any fee.
Thanks for weighing in.

Hi everyone

As a skilled worker visa holder, can I trade on shares and stock in the UK? I just registered with Revolut now and I thought I should ask before going ahead. The Google search is not making sense

Good morning house, please does anyone know the trick I can use in order to upload my picture on the international passport application website. I have uploaded many versions of my picture but it keeps saying "ICAO Compliance Issue(s) Image need to be clicked under proper light"

Please help a brother

You can. There's no restriction on investing in stocks. If you do it via a Lifetime ISA the government will even give you a bonus of 1k on top of your 4k every year so it's clearly very legal.

Please what about doing forex or crypto? Are they legal too for skilled work visa holders? Thanks

Hi Fam,
I applied for passport renewal since May 1st at the UK Office but my application form still shows that it’s awaiting approval.
What could be responsible?
My friend who did his own after me says his shows approved.
I reached out to INNOVATE in case it was payment issue, those ones said I don’t have appointment date. Me that booked for August since April, I sha went to rebook and luckily because of the new release of dates I found a date earlier than my old date.
But still showing awaiting approval.

Innovate now says it’s not them it’s Nigerian immigration

Pls which provider is this? What is the minimum age to open a lifetime isa account and At what age can you withdraw

My kids have Halifax Isa but interest rates is quite low.

Someone close to me got similar problem. Here is the solution: on the appointment date, go to the NIS website and reprint this slip. Then go for your capturing a day after the supposed appointment date. They will allow you to capture and it will automatically be corrected..
