I would have said use VFS..but seems every1 is saying DHL

 

[One_Topsy]

Guys, if she uses DHL does she pay for the return post? Or how does it work?

I know with VFS they send and return, you pick it up from their office

Nemile should be able to explain how Dhl works. I used VFS and still waiting since 1 Feb.

VFS has a tracker right? Are they giving you updates?

Seyi90,

Please explain how VFS works. Did you just go to their office with the passport and get it done?

One topsy: Yes VFS has a tracker, and my tracker status just changed from sent to accra to passports are being processed in Visa office Accra. I am not sure which is faster though between VFS and DHL, I guess they can only impact the speed of delivery and pick up. I submitted our pp's on 1 Feb.


Patib: Yes, I just went to the office at lekki, and they directed me through the process. Except that I had to go out to withdraw cash (no POS) i was done in about 15/20 mins with all 4 passports.

Seyi90 did you have to do biometrics and how much where u charged or please break down the cost

 

[seyi90]

No Biometrics, I just went with the PP, photos and the printed letter.
I paid N8,225 per person, so about 33k for family of 4. You have the option of paying additional N4.5k or so person if you want them to deliver your passport back to your address but i declined that.

Seyi,

You are right with the figure. I paid about N52,000.00 for a family of 6 including cost of SMS.

Guys,
I sent our passports to Accra by DHL from Surulere, Lagos yesterdayf But DHL refused me to add pre-paid envelope which was asked in the ppr letter. DHL lady told me that DHL has instruction not to send prepaid envelope and Canadian embassy knows it. She showed me all emails of people who sent passport to Accra. She assured me that once visa will be issued, embassy will inform me by email that visa has been issued. Then I should go to DHL office and to forward the email. DHL will use this email as reference and will ask Accra DHL to arrange to pick up passport from embassy.

I paid total 16490 naira with insurances. And I have to pay 22000 naira again when passport will be ready.

Anybody used DHL, please share your case.
