You are right...
For those that their visa were denied, am truly sorry about that but the truth is that I was once in that terrible mood when I was denied. I felt the world has collapsed on me but little did I know that it was the will of GOD.
What do I mean? My first application was 101% ok. I submitted everything even added extra documents to prove my transparency. My financial aspect was clearly stated. I had enough money left after i have paid my school fees, I presented my letter of employment, my pay slips, letter of recommendation from our HR..... Infact my statement of account I printed corresponded with my pay slips and inflow/outflow of money was 101% consistence. All the reasons for their denial were funny because they were part of the evidence I presented. Eg My financial status, date of birth (Note: I have never used another date of birth since my childhood, my WAEC result has my original date of birth crested on it, my birth certificate from NCC, my baptizmal card looking old you will clearly know that it was not forged in all they said I gave a fake date of birth... hahahaha. The ONLY thing I did not do was EDUBOND. So when I was apealing I used EDUBOND, immigration lawyer in Nigeria and presented all documents I submitted earlier according to the way it was stated in IRISH website.
Finally a decision was made and my visa was APPROVED.
My point is that GOD allowed the denial to take place so that I can apply for EDUBOND and doesn't have to be stranded. The exchange rate when I did the EDUBOND was N395 per 1 euro from black market against N552 per 1euro currently.
It has added extra 1million Naira.
Attimes God allows things happened for a purpose.
Just be optimistic and believe that God can do all things.
SHALOM!!

Princeadex04:
We need more of this, I understand what would be going through your mind when you first got refused. Thank God you scaled through. When did you got refused and when did you appeal? and after your appeal when did you get a decision?

Chibabe4Christ:
Thank God ooooo
I have answered all that...
Am hoping to see you all in Ireland by HIS garce

Unclenene:
Please the embassy just mailed me to show the Birth certs showing the links between me and my sponsor. Please how can I show this link as both Fathers are late and we can get get their birth certs.

seunny4lif:
Ireland wants you to pay in Full for your first year

Alday:
If you can, then why not?

Please send within the deadline given in your notice and may it end on a positive note.

Sorry I meant can not get it.

Princeadex04:
You can send them a high court affidavit explaining the ties between you and your sponsor. The High court affidavit would fix that if you think you won't be able to get a NPC issued certificate. Did you received the mail from Abuja or Dublin and when did you submit?

It’s from Dublin.

I am also trying to reach our family lawyer if I can get my grandfather’s will where all the children were listed (my father and his siblings) and I can back it up with their death certificates. If I can get the affidavit down within early hours of tomorrow I will also add it to my submission if not I will just go by what I have and pray. Hope it works.

Dwebb55:


My 2 cents on this is to advise you to not proceed! The stories coming out of there are not too good. If you research well, Ireland and UK are really good options now.

seunny4lif:
He can try any EU countries like
Swiss, German, Austria, Southern Cyprus, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Ireland but no Northern Cyprus

I have guys over there and two were killed around 2015/2016
Police there do deport anyone even if you are a student because Nigerians over there are mostly cultists

Alday:
The 'Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus' a.k.a Northern Cyprus is only a feasible option for someone desperate to leave Nigeria ASAP for Asia/Europe.

Northern Cyprus neither has a post-graduation student pathway nor even officially allows international students to work for any number of hours.

The country (only recognized by Turkey) uses the Turkish Lira (NOT EURO!) and most of its trade, defence and guarantees are overseen by Turkey.
All Inbound flights to Northern Cyprus must even stop-over in Turkey.


It's not a light decision to make but can only be chosen if you think all your other study-travel options may not work out for you visa-wise.

seunny4lif:
He should try Poland or Portugal
There are so many countries with EU
I rather go to Russia then N.Cyprus

Akinsu:
Guys, I didn’t do any English Language Test but I get a mail from the Visa Officer for me to provide an evidence of English Test taken and my Birth Certificate. I was able to provide a proficiency in English Language Letter from my School and my birth certificate. Would that be sufficient?

Alday:
If you can, then why not?

MODIFIED:
Usually, people born before 1992 do not have NPC-issued birth certificates (except maybe a recently-issued Attestation letter from the NPC) but will rather possess statutory declaration of age (declared by a relative) which is accepted by the embassy for people born pre-1992.

Hospital-issued birth certificates may be regarded as a good proof of evidence to backup the affidavit.

If the relationship is by marriage, you can also establish the connection through a marriage certificate.

Make your response concrete and convincing and may it end well.
Go to NPC office in your state. My younger was born 2000, he has a birth certificate from NPC.He got it when he needed it for traveling.Last year.
