Hello People,
Please what is the best way to send Passport to Accra after PPR. I'm in Nigeria, is it better to send directly to accra using VFS or send through VFS lagos. It's abit confusing for me.

Wish everyone waiting all the best. Brief of timeline, application received in January 2022, Medical August 2022 and PPR Nov 2022.

Sending directly will be my recommendation and that's what we did and it took about a 1.5 weeks from sending to return

Please can you provide me with the details of how you sent directly to Accra Visa office. How did you make payment and how much was it. Did you use DHL or UPS? I would appreciate your detailed explanation please.

The below is what I got from Accra when I emailed in late June but you can send an email to them to confirm.

We used DHL directly to VFS Accra because we do not live in a city that had one and we needed to cut the middle man. It was about 1.5 weeks from the day we mailed to Accra and the day it was delivered back to us. Payment was made in a Nigerian bank (sorry can't remember what it's called) and receipt was attached in the package with other required documents.

We acknowledge receipt of your message. Kindly send the following documents to us via DHL:
Passport
Letter from IRCC
CVAC Consent Form – Pages 1 and 2 only (see attached)
Typed Return address, telephone number and email address on a sheet of paper
Payment slip of GHC204.00 (per person for residents within Accra) or GHC207.00 (per person for residents in Tema and outside Accra) or GHC508.00 (per person if you live in any other country within Africa)
Required size passport pictures – Permanent Resident Applicants(50mmX70mm with date, name and address of studio behind one photo)
Any other documents required – Permanent Resident Applicants
Bank details:
Bank Account name – International Organization for Migration
Bank name – ECOBANK Ghana Limited
Account Branch: Head office
BIC/SWIFT Code – ECOCGHAC
Account Number – 1441000695744

**FEES INCLUDE RETURN OF YOUR PASSPORT.

Yes, child from Nigeria.
I have no idea what the ADR is.
At the beginning of the request letter,it states to update name and address if there has been any changes BUT there has not been any change. It also does not state what form to submit.
I think it is an error on their side IMO

Alright thank you very much. That means you were told to submit extra documents at any point.. do you think dependent child sponsorship is faster than spousal sponsorship in n accra?
