Streetinvestor2:
I will answer you well because I be street. I have stopped taking all this new monikers that just pop up serious.when you look at the profile you will realise it was a moniker created for the purpose of double handle and not really in use.

To your question,you didn't tell us whether na Oloshos you have been investing you own money so that we understand whr you are coming from

We are puting much effort because it is called nigeria stock market and we see ourselves as Nigerians .

Naira depreciation is not the only thing happening in nigeria. Even in the time of nigeria civil war some people whr still making money and becoming millionaire. When cement was 100 naira some people could not still build a house while some are still building at #9500 a bag.
If you are only seeing excuses you will definitely die in poverty.
You should equally be happy I wasted my time answering such post. It is because I slept all through after church service and sleep no agree come eyes again....yeye question

Olosho and church in the same sentence. Guy you seem to be really confused here but I understand no man holy. Create a guideline for newbies on How to start investing in the NSE. That is a more productive endeavor than the church wey you dey go because e be like say na olosho house your eyes dey

ndept:
Apology for the way/style others responded to your question. First of all, you are welcome to this platform. All we do here is to discuss ways to navigate through and be successful with investing in the Nigerian Exchange. I make bold to say that many of us here have been able to make more than 300% of the initial capital we invested in January 2024. This platform is full of good and resourceful people that have been of assistance in choosing the right stocks to buy.

You be sabi guy! I ire the good and resourceful stand up men and women that are doing what you have just described. I know there are international options which compared to the Nigerian financial instruments you have a more stable currency plus the advantage of having gains in a foreign currency. But no long thing, gains na gains

Imagine the shock on my face today to see the amount of effort you lots are putting into the Nigerian stock exchange…well how do you justify this considering the depreciation of the Naira? Even if your stocks are doing well you are still have a terrible Naira to deal with. What’s the catch? Please educate me

Nigeria’s crude oil production is 1.4 million barrels per day
Dangote’s refinery is 650k capacity
FG can only offer him 350k per day.
Just think about this for a second and so many questions pop out…why will you have the capacity to make the life of people easy but just ignore the opportunity.
There’s is a win win situation for everyone if we can all be considerate. yes Dangote is in it for profit and that is understandable but the FG also needs to meet him halfway so we can all move forward in the right directions

nuel80:
I just got a mail to forward the original language certificate from Goethe institute. Thought they will skip this part since my spouse is a German citizen?
I’m worried because I didn’t make the last exam I sat for. Is there any option to this case ? The deadline given is too short

Call them and ask for clarification. Tell them your spouse is also a German citizen and goethe institute is closed. They will tell you what to do. Did they ask you to submit port and insurance too?

ndewo:


we all are facing the same thing. so the early you apply for it, it is the better for you. lamenting wont solve the problems

True o
Apply now and be preparing all your documents but take your mind away from it and be visiting your family anytime you can in Nigeria. No just put mind because family reunion takes so much time and putting your mind can be so depressing. The visa will surely come but it takes so much time.

So many of us that had our interview in July are yet to get out visa.

knogbu:
Same date. no news till now

Does it mean they have not given anyone who did interview for family reunion post covid visa?


Pls if there is anyone let us know so we can be encouraged o

Potymarket:
I just called the embassy now to and I was told that since its national visa that I applied for and I hv gotten a date already, I should come for my interview. That means that persons that applied for national visa and have gotten date already re not affected.

Good morning
How far with your visa for family reunion?

MrsM2019:
Hello everyone, please I will like to ask if anyone is in this same category with me regards this visa process.
1. I did my interview on the 29th of July.
2. My lawyer called in August but completed the verification process in September.
3. I got an email on the 18th of November confirming my verification has been completed and requesting for my port with my new data ( I changed my name after marriage). The mail also came with a request that I submit a reconciliation of name affidavit.
I submitted all these requested documents on the 19th of November and I have not heard back from them since. They have also not reached out to my spouse in to submit any document. So I was wondering if there are other people like me and I am not the only one.

Did they ask for your travel insurance and travel date?

temp2:
I benefited from this thread a lot while trying to figure things out myself so, I decided I'd help with some info of my own.


I'm a software engineer and recently got an employment offer from a german company. I already knew the wait time for the appointment was insane so even before the interview process concluded, I was already looking for alternatives. I came across the fast track process for skilled workers during my search. https://www.make-it-in-.com/en/looking-for-foreign-professionals/targeted-recruitment/entering-working-in-/the-fast-track-procedure-for-skilled-workers/

Then when I got the employment offer, I informed the employer about the crazy wait times and the ability to fast track. Thankfully they were already aware of the fast track process so they were happy to go that route.

They requested that my degree certificate be certified and I did that at the Ministry of Foreign affairs in Abuja. After they had this and other documents (reference letter from past employers, port data page, mawista health insurance), they applied for the pre-approval from their end. I can't say exactly how long this took because I don't know when they applied but, I sent the final document they needed on October 15, 2020. They also sent me a bunch of documents I had to sign and get back to them.


The company informed me they got the pre-approval on November 2, 2020 and I applied for an appointment same day using the WITH Approval link. I got a response for an appointment same day as well for November 20, 2020. Went for the appointment with all my documents and some extras that the company sent me to submit along.

At the appointment, I made a mistake by not photocopying the extra documents the company sent me. I assumed they'd take it as-is and tried to explain the company asked me to just submit this alongside the application. But the man that attended to me was very agitated by this because according to him, they're not "original documents" and I needed to have copies. It was all a lot of documents and making two copies of all made no sense to me (I didn't tell him this lol, I just stopped talking because he started saying I was arguing even though I was just trying to explain).

Long story short, I only gave him the documents I had copies for and he added those to a docket/file and gave me to take in. But I still went in with the other documents. At the appointment the lady asked questions about why you want to go, how you got the job, future plans etc. Then she specifically asked for a document which wasn't in the docket, she said if I had it, it would be an instant visa approval and she kept repeating the German name of the document. I looked for it in the documents the company sent and I found it thankfully, it was the Federal Employment Agency approval (not to be confused with Vorabzustimmung or the "pre-approval" ).

She also complained about me not having copies of that Federal Employment Agency approval document but she took it. I used the opportunity to submit some other documents the company sent that I thought would help, like university degree recognition stuff.

On November 25, I got the approval mail and was asked to submit health insurance plus travel dates. Submitted the documents by November 26. The consulate sent back my documents by December 2, 2020 but DHL delayed and I got it all by December 4, 2020.

Congratulations

Chinny22:
