Hi, I am currently residence abroad, but my sista is doing it for me. I will help u enquire about the price. The question i have is about birth certificate. I want to know if the American consulate accepts Birth attestations, which they give in place of original birth certificates. Mine went missing many years ago. Cheers

Nigerian police certificate was 5000 naira (this May 2012) and you will collect same day - Just know your way around and ask the officer to help.

Please I was just wondering if any Nigerian VJ can tell me how much it cost to get a police certificate. I heard that you have to get it at the Police headquarters in Alagbo, Lagos. How many days does the process take?

We are at the NVC stage for document submission and a few days ago, we got a checklist for the Birth Certificate Attestation from the National Population Commission. We sent in only the Birth Attestation and failed to send in the affidavit deposed to by mum, on the basis of which the Birth Attestation was issued. My spouse called the NVC to explain to them we spent in the Birth Attestation and the person she spoke to informed her that since the Birth Attestation was not a certificate, we should in response to the checklist prepare a statement of no birth certificate and add an affidavit deposed to by a close relative who was present at my birth. If we had known, we would have sent in the Birth Attestation and the Affidavit and we would not have had the checklist.
