Thanks for posting this video as I was unaware of the POSSAP sight! After watching your video, although you were applying from your own country, it did not take my husband and I long to figure out how to get it from overseas! We applied from Canada, and received to PCC from Nigeria, online!
@@JumaiIdristhanks so much ma for the information, just did my online payment now, please ma my question is how many days does it take them to send you the SMS for your capturing.since you said we can not go with out the SMS message
The time of registration and when you will receive the sms shouldn't be more than 72hrs, you can contact them with your valid number after registration to explain your situation.
My cousin is here now in the Philippines. How can he get a copy of the Nigeria Police Clearance. Do you any link? It is requirement for work visa application for Australia. I hope you can assist us. Thanks.
It's the same step, the website link is under the description box. Choose 'Diaspora' as your location and follow the rest steps as it is in this video. Do let me know how it goes. All the best.
They will contact you on how to go about your biometrics, and the certificate should be ready once the biometrics are done. I didn't do mine from the diaspora though. But you can check the comment section, I'm sure people who did from the diaspora wrote how it went.
Good afternoon, what if a mistake is made for example inputting “travelling” as the reason for the need for the clearance in place of “employment” can this be rectified?
Thanks for this information. I just applied for police character certificate online yesterday night, please when will I visit the office to complete the other part of the application, and how will I be contacted, via email or phone?
@@JumaiIdris Thanks so much, I just received an sms right now telling me to proceed to biometric. Please I want to ask, do I have anything to check on the email that I registered with the portal? N.B: I have forgotten my password to the email and can't access it right now.
Hi, Thank you for watching, pls do not forget to subscribe, like, and share. You can try reaching them by phone or email if that would help. Getting the biometric date by email might happen or it might not, the best is to try calling them if there is anything they can do about it. I hope this helps.
I am not a nigerian, but i stayed there for ten months, and i need that doument. what can i do as i am not in nigeria? How will i send my finger print?
You buy a fingerprint pad and do it yourself! They supply you with the form online, after you make the payment! You print the form, fill it out and do your fingerprints, then PDF it back to them for processing. They will send the PCC to you online after it is processed. This information is for people applying from diaspora!
They will send you the form online, after you make payment. You will need an ink pad to give your fingerprints! Print the form, fill it, then PDF it back. They will send you your PCC online, after everything is processed!
@@christopherugo9710hi I applied on Friday evening from diaspora how will they get biometrics? How long will it take before I get the certificate from your experience
Please I am to register with my bvn but it is saying something went wrong please try again or contact admin.i do not have a NIN though becuase I am in the diaspora, could that be the problem pls?and wat can I do about this
Please i used a non-functional/non accessible email address in filling my police report online because the email address is linked to my NIN already and i couldn't change it to another email and i don't know how am going to know my schedule date if message is sent to this non-accessible email address...pls do you know if sms will be sent to my phone number aside email message?
Yes, an SMS will be sent to you on your biometric appointment. You could have used any functional email address it doesn't have much effect like your phone number. So yes they will contact through SMS as well.
After applying online and making the payment, they will send you the form to print and fill out, plus give your fingerprints. You will need an ink pad! Then you will PDF the form back to them, and when approved they will send your PCC online. My husband applied from Canada, and received his PCC online from Nigeria while he is inside Canada. The benefit to doing it outside your country is that the PCC does not expire until you go back! You can’t commit a crime if you are not there!
@@jacquelinelefebvre2395Please is there any difference between the certificate from Nigeria or diaspora? I'm currently in Ghana, I'm travelling to Canada to meet my wife, I want to do a Police clearance. Does your husband's certificate specify his place of residence?
@@JumaiIdris thank you so much. Someone told me that without my nin or bvn, I won’t be able to get my PCC. That go me worried and I don’t know how true it is
@@aisosaabusomwan5320I mentioned all the application processes in the video if you watch it all. I guess it depends on if you are applying for domestic use or International use.
Pls, does the arrangement of name matters on the certificate. Because the arrangement of my name on my international passport is my surname, first name and then last name. I submitted my information in that order. The certificate was sent to my mail but my first name appears first, before my middle name and then my last name
@@omobolanleoyinkansolaisagr9882 If the application was successful you should get an sms or email appointment for your biometric. If it's taking time try to contact them.
@@omobolanleoyinkansolaisagr9882 I mentioned in the video where you can contact them or you can check their website for their contact number and email address.
Thank you for watching. Please 🙏 do not forget to subscribe, like, and share. Although I don't understand your question I will assume you are talking about location, it should be on the list when you get to the location section while filling out the form, it should be there but if not, you might have to click the nearest location to you. I hope this helps.
@@JumaiIdris okay I was asking if there is anyone here who has done here in B/C to easily direct me, meanwhile I couldn't get the verification code on my mail I exceeded the number. I couldn't continue

After the capturing and fingerprint is it a must will check the portal to download the certificate or it will be sent through Email Cause I pay the police officer to do it , I don't have portal how will I get it , it been 1 days now
Yes, your certificate will be available to download on your portal. Ask the police officer for details of your portal, that way you can download it when it's ready. It could be that the officer wants to help you out with it. Ask the police the police officer.
