Hello, I just made a payment for fresh application but couldn't find the guarantors form. Where can I find it on the website?

opeyemi2012:
I'm currently at the NIS HQ, Sauka, Abuja. I must say the process here is pretty seamless. Got here around 11.40am. I forgot to stamp my guarantor's form before getting here. Luckily, there is a court within the premises and I was attended to in 3 minutes after paying N700.

I proceeded to the passport application processing office. You are requested to generate an electronic ticket yourself before stepping into the waiting room. Your ticket number will appear on an electronic board in front of the counter when it is your turn. There are about 12 or more counters and it took less than 8 minutes before I was attended to.

Altogether, I spent less than 30 minutes because there are not many applicants today.

I'm impressed with the process. I was told my PP will be ready on 22nd of July 2020. That's just 7 work days from today.

Better times are here.

PS: I didnt wait for my interview date which was slated for 22nd July 2022 anyway. I guess it was a system error. Just go with all the required documents and you will be attended to.

Did u do the payments online

SaintAY:
Hello guys, really want to thank everyone for the information,

Please my guarantors international passport is expired can it still be used

sollie123:
Thank you all for your supports here.
I was able to do my capturing today.
I did it all by myself and with the support I got here.
So, I applied online and made payment via netpost pay (26k) on the 10th. Interview was scheduled for today.
I got to Ikoyi office at 8:25am.
I was asked to go and file my documents at the business centre (be careful, those guys are rogues. They charged me 2k for just a file and 3 photocopied documents they gave me. I insisted I wasn't going to pay, but they later collected 1k).
As I entered the gate, I went straight to the court to notarize my guarantor's form (N500).
Then, I went to servicom (its by the right of the entrance gate) and got my documents filed again.

After filing my documents, I was told to waite for sms this week before I come for capturing.
I pleaded with the man and appealed to do it today with the excuse that I came from a far place.
That was how he took my file inside and the whole process started again.
Same man directed me to the next office to go, from there to another desk till it entered capturing office.
There were just 3 persons before me.
In all, I spent about 2hrs to get everything done.
I await the sms for collection.

Thank you all once again!

opeyemi2012:
No. I don't think so. I'm not sure though but any expired official document should not be valid anywhere.

SaintAY:


Really don't have any other option

opeyemi2012:
Do you reside in Abuja?

bennymine:


From the order of things in your statement, it means you applied for the standard passport and not enhanced passport since you already had your payment details available before doing the National Identity Registration. Am I right?

Goddys:
please I have been seeking to print nin slip cuz I lost the one I was given in 2015. Their office within my area has not opened for two months. Does anybody know whether any of nimc offices in lagos is working?

Exmay02:

opeyemi2012:
Well done bro. If we all follow due process, the era of illegalities may soon go away. I hope the passport will bring great opportunties for you. Cheers!
