Have you now received your passport with the counterfoil? How long did it take from submission to pick up? Or was it returned directly to your house by courier? My niece received a passport request today from the Nairobi office. We are looking at dropping it off at VSF Global in Lagos by Monday. What is your advice if one wants to pick up as soon as possible, say by 20th of December or earlier?
My advice is to send it to Abuja. They are faster. I still don't have my passport. It is on it's way back to VFS. But the visa has been stamped. I expect it this week or next at the lastest.

Hi folks, did you all get travel exemption letter when you get approved, it seems that’s needed to board a flight unless you already have a job offer

Are you talking about Authorization letter ? Do we need authorization letter if we have already got approved Work Permit, Stamped Visa and Valid offer letter ?

No, I’m sure it’s not needed if you have a valid job offer. Please be sure to go to the airport with your offer letter

HOW AWB No is working as my area was not serviceable
but they sent me location if I can drop
I sent confirmation and they do send me 2nd AWB no but the no is not showing in Blue dart system
and in consent form if Bilometrics are done where to sign on Last Page. (giving enrolment or not to enrol)

So, it took 8 days ? when did you come to know about the passport status ?

I have a new problem. The tracking ID given to me used to show 'status' till Friday. Today it says "No records found". And no response from VFS.
VFS sent me AWB No but they told me to go and drop in Jalandhar Location in India. But I went as well but AWB not showing in System even I told Bluedart they say number with your details should come ???????
