We (myself and wifey) were at Ikoyi Passport Office today. Got there around few minutes to 9am, proceeded for NIN change of name and also went to servicom straight as advised here.

Finished with NIN change of name around 1pm, much crowd in NIMC compared to Passport processing. After collecting tracking number for the new NIN slip to be issued, we were told that until after 24 - 72 hours before the slip will be ready, I was like , the flimpsy excuse was that it's because we are doing modification and not new application. So that's how we couldn't capture today..... I have done all servicom ask us to do, photocopied the form given already and filled.


So for guys that went there recently, please do they still ask applicant to wait for SMS to come for capture or its done same day? Though i heard one of the servicom guys told a guy after setting up his file to go for capturing, but not sure..... Was so disorganized when we were told we won't get for NIN slip to proceed.

Lest I forget, there is an immigration officer there called Oodo, Can't remember his initials, this man keeps terrorising people, at least i can count 5 ppl he harrassed with his over sabi, u can try avoid him as much as u can.

please did you pay for NIN name modification.

or you have a connect there.

WIZGUY69:
Please House, How many days will one wait for before his/her passport will be ready? I applied and did everything on the 16th of Last month. No news yet. I called the officer that helped me through. He said the passport is not ready yet. That if it's ready, he will call me. It's going to a month now. No news.


NIS, Osogbo

You pay through remita...500 naira

Just go to remita website, navigate to NIMC column, then u select payment for change of name.

So you go along with your remita receipt print out, photocopy of news paper publication, court affivadit for name change and marriage certificate.

I don't have any connection there, it is not needed.

Got there around 8.45am. It is boldly written on d banner in front of there office that change of name is 500 naira. Pay on remita before going.

When u enter through d gate, to your right is servicom and NIMC where capturing is done for NIN, dont turn right, turn to your left just keep checking of the walls of the building, u will see NIN banner, the entrance after this banner, enter and tell them u want to do change of name. Don't let those hungry officer at d gate stop u.

The new passport is same price and no difference with the adult. Requirements are : consent letter, birth certificates of the children, you and your husband's data page that bear the same surname the children wants to answer, you can get letter of identification from your state laison office.

Bye bye

What if both parents don't have international passport

Please, was this recently?

I am asking because the NIS staff at the gate in Ikoyi office don't allow people in for NIN registration except your application for a passport is handled by them. This was my experience at Ikoyi.

I have successfully paid and printed all the required documents.
My interview date shows 20th of July, can I go before then?

I went to Ikoyi passport office today. I got there by 7am and i was allowed in by past 8am.
The officers at servicom were in a meeting so I had to wait till past 9 when they finished their meeting. I proceeded to stamp my guarantor's form and went to submit my documents at servicom.
After the officer filed my documents, he told me to come back for capturing on a date that would be communicated to me via text.
Since I had plans to do capturing today, I begged him but he refused and directed me to a senior officer. After about one minute of begging and explaining how far my place was, he finally allowed me to go for capturing.
I followed his directions and finally did the capturing. I left the passport office at exactly 11:30am. I was told my passport would be ready in 10 days.

Thanks to everyone that offered help during this process.

Mehn, I just left ikoyi passport office now, collected my wife's change of name NIN slip which was done on monday and proceeded to submit passport application on my wife's behalf so we can wait for SMS for capturing, the guy i met said the process have changed; that its immediate capturing, so end up not submitting for her..... So surprised to see this And i left there already.

We just like to frustrate ourselves in this country.

You can use the "payarena" option.
You would need to get a guarantor that has an international passport as the data page requirement is compulsory.

Sorry I don't know about the last question.

SaintAY:

Your guarantor must have international passport and driver's liscence, if you want to do it yourself and save yourself 18k extra... Those inmigration officer charge at least 45k, while u will do it yourself 27k. I believe d guarantor part is what d immigration officer are feasting on.

The Alausa office is very corrupt and to do it yourself will be harder compared to ikoyi ( based on people's experience here).

When paying online, u can choose netpay post option from d list u will see for online payment, which is better than going to d bank.

that means I'd have to change my location

Nairaboi:

Then both of you need a valid form of identification which means National ID card or Voters ID card. This should be original but often times it's almost akward that a child acquires a passport and the parents do not have unless the child is being sponsored.

Yeah you're actually correct

Good morning guys, thanks to everyone who have contributed to this thread. I was scheduled for interview on Monday, on getting there I was asked to come on Wednesday for national id card, I was given a number. When I stepped out all those guys around was asking me to bring 7k if I want to get my id card that day and also 10k to open file for me. I refused went home and came back on Wednesday. I was able to do my national id card free, also I submitted my payment details to servicom, those guys were excellent. I stamped my guarantor form there. I finished the process, was asked to go home and come back for capturing. I begged the servicom guy there that my place was far, he took me to the place and I was able to do my capturing that same day. I didn't pay anybody 1kobo. Those servicom guys were excellent. When my file got to the capturing unit, all other files was suspended just to attend to me. I will advice anybody to follow due process, God bless Nigeria

Good morning everyone, Please i am about to start the process of obtaining my international passport in Lagos, Ogun, and its environs in Nigeria. I would like a step by step guide on the process. Is it safer to do it online or offline?

Hello guys can anyone please give a description of a court, where the guarantors form could be stamped
