    Second, when posting your old passport, do we also include photocopies of all the documents in the envelope?
    Lastly, the second envelope that is to be addressed to myself, is it to be included in the envelope containing my passport, that will be posted?

My question is, did you have to submit an affidavit as part of your application, as I saw this on the list of documents required on the nigeria change of name website. I am applying for renewal/change of name. Also, how long did it take for you to get the new NIN slip with your husband's name. I have everything think required except this

      I also got to know at that time that an affidavit should precede a change of name publication. A lawyer friend of mine came in handy to sort it. You could explore that route.

    Based on your responses to questions I understand the husband's surname should be used to complete the passport application form. My question is this- do I get a new NIN before applying for the passport or just before going for biometrics, because there's a request while completing the passport application form to include a NIN. Is it okay to use my old NIN to complete the application form then get a new NIN before attending biometric appointment?

    • @Omobeejayvlogs
      @Omobeejayvlogs  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It’s the same NINumber, you are only updating your name.
      To answer your question, it is okay to use old NIN to complete the application form , that was exactly what I did. You must just have the updated NIN slip in your new name before attending Biometric appointment.
