Does anyone know for sure how long both the police certificate and the medical exam are valid for? My husband is Nigerian born but lives on the Ivory Coast. So he will have to travel to Lagos for his interview when it comes around and we are wanting to get as ahead of the game as we can. Do you think it's to soon to get his certificate from the Ivory Coast now? Does anyone know how long it takes to get in for the medical exams in Nigeria? We are wondering how long before his interview date he should travel to Nigeria. I know he will have to have some immunizations but won't know which ones until his exam, does that add a lot of time to the medical exam process? We appreciate any help we can get from you VJer's!

Thanks ~ Erica & Kingsley

Sorry can't help you on those points but!

Be WELL prepared if your husband is younger than you. Lagos is one of the toughest places to get approval.
