Wittyglam:

blackborn7:

It is a normal embassy procedure if you don't have an appointment you will not be allowed in.

Good evening any update on appointment yet

I was at vfs Abuja yesterday and I saw agents dragging people to come and pay for appointment. 400k for an appointment and it takes one month or so. Corruption has reached everywhere and everything in this country. Let’s just wait for update on the vfs website

Ridiculous!

It’s quite pathetic. But I think it’s only a matter of time before one gets appointment. Another agent was saying 250k.
Note that this is just to get appointment, doesn’t mean any form of assurance of getting the visa.
Plus, when you get to Portugal, you have to look for a job within six months.

You people blame agents for everything! before you talk too far now, someone will come under my comment and be asking me nasty questions, am i an agent?
How about the people working inside the system? They are saints? The embassy staffs, the people on the portal.
Alot of you forget that these are the actual ones selling the slots to the highest bidders.

And for a fact, those people inside even take a larger share most of the times. Do not be suprised, out of 250k, agent may only see 50k.
Most agents make alot of monies, when a job is bulky.
How much agent dey see?
Everything agent agent!
It is high time you guys start channeling your anger to the embassy's themselves. They are the reason why you can not get appointment!
Na them dey sell slots give agents and tell them when portal go open.


Make una let agent rest!

Kindly update us good people when appointment date open abeg! I no get money for slot for now, i go send mail tire to embassy!

Really?
What route are you going through?

Good evening, please i need any legit person doing pof, preferable residing in Abuja

MadeMan01:
Guys I was refused a Portugal job seeker visa.
I had my appointment at VFS Global Abuja on January 30, 2024, and received a DHL courier on February 7.
Reason: Doubts about the intentions and objectives of stay. They say I can appeal
What is the appeal process? I have 10 days.
House kindly advise.

Note: I had a previous Portugal Schengen visa of 36 days that I did not use last year because I changed jobs

How did you solve ds, please?

Have you all seen the latest update on the Vfs website? I think those selling slots have been exposed.

Booking.com

You can try bookings.com
Put in the area you intend to stay, look for accommodation in that area be it a guest house or hostel or hotel, depending on your account balance too.
Also search for accommodation that allows a long duration for cancellation.

Please don’t make payment ahead and also, don’t pick an accommodation that doesn’t allow cancellation.

You will need to input your card details, but it’s fine, they won’t charge you until the stipulated date they put (please check the date to be sure it’s good enough for you) then once you book, you can download the booking and print and submit with your other documents at vfs.

Hope this was helpful

The agent must have added his/her fees. Online fee for Lagos is about 18k plus, for Abuja about 33k

Actually, these guys are very funny... paying online is 18k for lagos and 33k for Abuja but when you get to their centers, they will still charge you extra... i think the real amount is like 44k or 45k or so
