Thank you so much.
You need to book an appointment with them first before you go to their office.

IOM Lagos does not collect any fee whatsoever under any guise.... i just got my flight tickets through them and to my surprise they called me up to tell me that i still have some change out of the money i paid to them for the flight tickets.

Dealing with IOM lagos requires "a lot of patience"... it seems they are busy with other issues apart from getting flight tickets so you need to pet them and flow with them well. i got my tickets within 3 weeks while Mandie that used IOM Accra got hers "Same day" (naija na wah)

You start by calling their office to book an appointment... (Send me a PM if you need the numbers). You will be given an appointment, i initially made the mistake of going to their old office at IKoyi before i was re-directed to their new office at GRA- Ikeja.

On the appointment day, the security guards will re-confirm if "you are on the list" before you are allowed in... then you will be assigned an officer who will give you a form to fill and talk to you a little about IOM, they will also collect your original passports for scanning to their regional office in Accra.

My best advice to anyone that intends using IOM services is "Please use their Accra office", because even the lagos and abuja offices will still forward your details to Accra to make the final Booking.

But all in all, IOM flight tickets are waaaaaaaaaaay cheaper than whatever you will get on any website or travel agent.

Hello, all.....
Thanks for all the info on this thread......it's a goldmine of information.
I'm really grateful to Madam Tinu who started it, and really want to appreciate all the time and patience it took to get things on track and keep the thread from dying.
I've been a little active on the sister thread (Naija applicants pls let us network), and it was a great privilege to be a part of forward looking Nigerians who are interested in self-improvement, despite all odds.
I got my PRV on 14th November, to expire in August 2014. I am preparing for landing middle of next year, as it will take a long while to wrap things up here, and meanwhile try to start certification process here.
I will really love to be a part of this community, and am glad and grateful for any advice.
Once again, Madam Tinu, I'm grateful to you.....

Hello Seniors in the forum,
I have been a silent follower of the forum for quite a long time and I must say kudos to you guys.I actually got my PRV November 2013 and am thinking of moving in anytime soon but I have one or two issues which i want to share with the seniors in the forum.
1.How to get an affordable accommodation for a family of four in Toronto.
2.Looking at settling in Calgary anytime soon ,If I apply for Health Card in Toronto and I possibly move to Calgary before i get the Health card what will actually happen .
Kindly Help to shed more light on it .
Thanks and Best regard.
