I won't be saying what I don't know.

Ready what I wrote.

This is serious. If only one can still do it online. Thought they promised to make everything seamless

You can only do such change at Abuja.

And if you are lucky it will be done within 6months you applied otherwise na a year plus ooo.

I equally intend doing same but when I see all the stress and money involved , I jejely change the name on my nin and the date of birth on my bvn to correspond with others

6 months?? Wow!
I will just take a pause for now till I'm free to travel to Abuja.
Hope if I miss my booked appointment it won't affect my application processing later when I decide to do the name change.

Has any Festac DIY that captured in May collected his/her port yet?

I captured on May 5th at Festac but it still shows "Production in Progress" after 7 MONTHS..

God!!!!!

The port tracker is unreliable. Go back to Festac port Office to collect your port. You captured since 5th May 2023! It must have been produced.

Have you applied for a renewal already?

If yes, it can't affect your capturing

But you should equally try as much as possible to go back for the capturing in time

I really can't the expired Time to do your capturing after booking but I think is within a year and shouldn't . Thou I really can't the exact time.

The average duration is 5 to 12 weeks. Ceteris paribus.

If you very early in January, it should be ready before February ending.

I see people says it takes months

With recent trends, the average duration is 5 to 9 weeks, unless your work has an error.

Using myself as an example, I went for my capturing on September 27.

And after waiting till last Monday (December 18), I decided to one of their officers to find out why it took that long, and lo and behold, he showed me my port.

It has been printed since November 18 (that's approximately 6 weeks after my capturing). However, I couldn't collect it because I was told that there's an error on it, which will be corrected immediately after the yuletide.

Will go back there first week in January to pick up my port.

This is my advise for anyone who intends to apply or just applied.

Don't rely on the online tracker.

Go to the port office 6 weeks after your capturing.

There's high chances that your port has been produced.

check for Nairaland msg in ur spam or junks

ok

rezzy:


Have you sorted this out?

Yes I have

I learnt there is a new office now in Ikorodu Lagos (igbogbo area precisely). Who knows if this is already functional and can be used to process a new port? Are they DIY friendly too?
Thanks

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.

Hi there!

I underwent the capture process on the same day as you did at Alausa, and I've been attempting to track it, but it's still in processing.
Did you use the DIY method?

If so, mine should be ready too, allowing me to collect it after the holiday season.

Hello.

Pls is Immigration service in Benin City DIY friendly.

And pls who knows their address In Benin City?
