Thread for Acrra Ghana applicants

[mevisbleek]

Good Day All,

Please, how do I apply for a birth certificate from Nigeria? There is someone online offering the service for 150 pounds (I ain't got that kinda cash to spend). I am sponsoring my spouse and she has got no Birth Certificate or Baptismal Card. However, we do have an affidavit from a court in Nigeria declaring her age, would this suffice? .

Thank you.

A friend of mine from Nigeria suggests following:

"Take two passport photos to high court,and a valid id card.u will get an affidavit for less than 2k.
Proceed to npc office with the affidavit and complete d process its under 10k"

Hope this helps.

Thank you. I've got the affidavit, I was hoping to apply with that. I guess I will need to send someone to NPC office.

Thanks once again

Passport booklet shortage in Ghana - Update

The passport office shall focus attention on priority cases which include the ongoing hajj, medical and emergency cases.

If GCKey used to say "Your application is in process, We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility" to "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements" what does that mean?

Does that mean immigration cases are also included?

I think the file is under review

@RoamingSpirit how’s everything going any update?

I think this forum has been silent for sometime now is it because, people who used to comment here have got PPR’s or everyone is being confidential? I stand to be corrected

It would seem they are prioritizing or focusing as listed, but do not mention immigration unfortunately, but it's best to attend at their office and inquire. Also, it's best to consult with AVO if you have to get a new passport considering the delays with obtaining a passport.

You could try these numbers that were published in an online article last year:

They are: 0299011200, 0299011201 and 0299011203. The number for the Accra Park application centre (Tema Station) is 0302967428.

Also it is best to apply online for new passport. They are encouraging that method but their website seems to be down at the moment.

I was hoping to see more input on this thread too but people have gone silent for some reason. I think it's both that some people have resolved their files and others don't want to contribute. That's why it was odd when there was opposition to creating a new thread that would be more of an information repository, a quick reference tool, and discussion point for members whose files are still outstanding or for new members just to keep things going.

This thread used to be on and off but now it seems to be dead.

Everything is fantastic, thank you. Just enjoying being together and getting the kids organized to go to school in a few weeks.

No update still?
