I think getting a port is easier and cheaper for those of us in remote northern states.

A friend paid 35k here in Sokoto to an officer (express as they claim, cos they usually charge 25k) and got his port in less than 24hrs. He was captured in less than 1hr after payment.

I choose the DIY path since I will not be needing it anytime soon, paid N17800/person for myself and wife last Saturday.

We didn’t book any appointment, just walked to there office in sokoto today being 16/08/2022 with all required documents in a file. The officers weren’t discriminating if it’s through them or DIY, they see it as their duty to attend to you.

We were both captured after going through all the processes and left there in less than 40mins. We were told the ports will be ready between 4-6 weeks (fair enough for us).

It's not the enhanced ppt. They don't use NIN over there.

Hi guys, please if I'm seeing " application not found " on the tracking site after capturing on the 22nd of July. The capturing location was Festac. What should I do?

adubam:


Sure all things being equal you will be notified from the track site or via SMS but check again after a month if you've not be notified via those platforms

Thanks so much

So no one has solution to how i can resolve my son's NiN that has not drop on the NIS server since January 14...

Please help a brother.

I just saw this. Don't know if u have gotten solution.
But the only solution I know is to try and msg them via email ([email protected]) and also do the same on the Instagram(nimc_ng) page by sending the DM.
Same happened to me and it got sorted after a week of sending them several msgs. Keep bothering especially on Instagram.

Sorry it's coming late.

Good morning, please do you have any officer who can help me with a port renewal, something I can get within days?

NaturalKinzzy:



I wasn't scheduled for the interview. I just went there myself. No I didn't do DIY.
Wait ,do you have a file there already?
I'd suggest you go before next week so they can have your file with your documents in it. Or else you'd not be called on the day of your capturing. If you don't mind you can reach me on 09168100842 so I can link you up with an officer.

You are correct. An officer told me they can issue port without NIN number.

Lagos but if it’s something I can get within a day or two I can come to Ibadan

NaturalKinzzy:

Pimiento:
You are correct. An officer told me they can issue port without NIN number.

not in all states. Any state that has launched enhanced ppt- Lagos, Abuja, Rivers, Enugu can not issue the older types of port.

Can you share your pls. I like to make some verification

Sent you a mail.

Who has collected ports recently from ikoyi office please and when did you capture?

This is getting really annoying and frustrating and the minister was saying there is no shortage anymore.

coolangel54:


He said I was to look at it before they send to production. What he meant by that, I do not know. We gave all correct credentials: birth certificate, NIN slip. My son is 3years old.

Any implication as regards this of it's not corrected? I'm thinking of doing a new birth certificate so it can tally with what is on the port.

This is serious oooo.. It's only at the immigration headquarters Abuja it can be corrected and it will cost u a lot

Good day team #DIY

Please, only the second page of my guarantor form was signed and stamped by the court. They even removed the first page saying it's not important. I hope I'm safe. My capturing is Friday.

Thanks boss..I responded already

NwamakaHalie:

I'm having thesame issue, please someone should help us out

You are on the old site. Visit the new website
https://port.immigration.gov.ng/ then click on guarantor form. and you would only be required to provide the reference number and maybe date of birth, then tick 'im a human' box to the guarantor form.

In order. Proceed.
