Yes! I collected and activated it on Tuesday, December 19, 2023. Apparently it has an "issuance" date of November 23, 2023, which is exactly 3 weeks after my capture. I did my capturing on October 30, 2023.
PS. The collection/activation lasted less than 10 mins.
Nairaland was down; that's why I couldn't post the update.

Good morning,
So when we got to Ikoyi port office yesterday, we went straight to the servicom unit. I went with my husband and baby (they both just applied for the first time). We were directed to an office for documents checkv. We met a lady who requested to see the payment receipts from our bank or the debit alert.
1. The documents I submitted for change of name were:
a) Printed application form
b) Payment receipt
c) Appointment slip
d) Change of name form (they gave me a copy, asked me to make my copy and return theirs)
e) Applicant verification form (they gave me a copy, asked me to make my copy and return theirs)
f) Handwritten application letter for change of name
g) Marriage certificate
h) Court affidavit for change of name
i) Newspaper publication
j) NIN
k) International port data page
l) Husband's International port data page (they requested for his payment receipt because he just applied and has no International port yet)
m) Husband's NIN
n) 2 port photographs
2. For my 10 months old baby:
a) Printed application form
b) Payment receipt
c) Appointment slip
d) Applicant verification form
e). Handwritten letter of consent from both parents (with their port photographs attached)
f) Both parents' International port data page (we submitted our payment receipt instead)
g) Both parents' NIN
h) Parents' marriage certificate
i) Birth certificate
j) NIN
k) 2 port photographs
3. My husband (fresh application) submitted:
) Printed application form
b) Payment receipt
c) Appointment slip
d) Applicant verification form
e) NIN
f) Birth Certificate
g) Local Government of Origin
h) Guarantor's form as well as a copy of his NIN and International port data page
i) 2 port photographs
After checking our documents, she signed on them and directed us to another office where a file was opened for my husband and baby. They (husband and baby) took their files and went in for capturing.
I was directed to a different office where a file was opened for me and signed. My file was given to me and I was directed to an office for my capturing. It took less than 15 minutes for me to capture.
My husband and baby's capturing took about 40 minutes and we were done.
The process was seamless.
Please how much is change of name and did you DIY?

I'm applying for a port renewal, and my old port carries 3 names. I wish to not use my middle name in the new port. Is it possible? My NIN and every other required document carries only my first and last names. I hope there won't be any issues with dropping my middle name for the new port. Please let me know if this would cause any problems or if I need to provide any additional documentation, like newspaper name publication.

I was at Ibadan immigration office today for my port renewal, I was hoping that I will prove you wrong thinking that they will adjust and work with Hon Minister vision but believe me it worst that what anyone can imagine, their level of Extortion and black market registration is incomparable, I got there 9am this morning with all my document ready, they keep bringing in new file of those they have collect extra 20k and put our own file aside I eventually capture by 3:30pm. Hon. Minister should please look in the high level of Extortion in ibadan immigration office which cut across the rank and files.
While other immigration offices has improve in their service deliver for DIY, Ibadan immigration office has choose to thick with the old ways of frustration and Extortion of applicants.
Good morning
Pls, what're the procedure/documents needed for port renewal and the cost.

My experience at the immigration headquarter here in Sauka, Abuja.
I left home around 9am because my appointment time was slated for 11am and I got there few minutes to 11. I went to the port processing center and met two officers at the entrance. I told them I was there for capturing. They asked if I knew anybody there and I replied no. So he said I should wait for him to call an officer on the phone that will open a file for me. I started to think hope this is not what I'm thinking 
The officer came and told me to follow him to the back of the office building. He checked all my documents and said the port processing fee is 10k. I told him I didn't have and there was nothing like port processing fee on their website. He now started to explain that I will collect a form and some officers will sign bla bla bla. I said I no get that the only money with me was my transport and I was told capturing was free. So he said I should go back and meet the officers at the entrance. I left him and went to stay at a place close the building to see if I could get another officer and explain my ordeal to him/her. That was how one of the officers at the entrance called me to come, was even surprised how he saw me because I wasn't staying at place he could easily see me, I guess they were scared 
He asked me what the other officer said and I told them he mentioned I should drop 10k but I was told capturing was free and I was not to pay anything while I'm here. He felt guilty instantly cos his facial expression reflected that. That was when he now said I should go inside. I met a man probably in his late 50s while going in and he asked me what I was there for, told him and he called an officer to open a file for me. That was how a file was opened, the necessary gs were done, and my file was given back to me. After some minutes I was called in for capturing. Captured and was given a paper that contained when my port would be ready. Left there around 2:15 pm
On my way back home I opened the immigration website on my browser to check if my nin had been verified, and of course they already verified it.
Total amount spent = 26k
Collected. port was issued on the first of December, that's exactly four weeks after my capturing.

Sure very possible.
You go to Abuja with your relevant documents such as nin , court affidavit and a letter stating the reason for the change. Is going to cost you around 50+ anyways

DIY is easy but it depends on the port office. Alausa port Office, Ikeja is DIY friendly.
You are right it depends on the Centre… Anyways, I collected my port and the total expense was around 30k for everything…🤷🏽‍♂️

Are you sure of this? This one they are trying to make this seamless. Why will it take this stressful process?
Can someone else confirm this?
