Hello all,

I was wondering what the cost is now to have a medical done in lagos for an adult IV applicant.

also I heard a second hospital is now being used in addition to kamurai hospital.

which one of them is "better" in terms of cost, speed , type of service etc.

any advice about their vaccine protocols for adults? I am really hesitant for them to administer unnecessary vaccines to my mom for the sake of making money.

I believe she needs to go with her interview letter right?

Its been almost 6years I went through this process so any updates and tips after NVC closes case is deeply appreciated.

GOD has been WONDERFUL!!!

You're going to pay N24k in total. First, deposit of N12k and second day balance of N9k.

Then a month later, N3k for vaccination follow up.. Then the last one will be after 4months wherever you are. If you made it to the States before the 4months elapse, then you'll have to take the shot in U.S. You must take the last shot. Cheers!

I am confused...I thought its only N21,000 total... So if you need extra vaccines you may have to pay N3000? The reason why i am asking is because my fiance is going Monday and i want to make sure everything is done before Jan 17th...Jan. 18th is his interview...thank you

You do not have to take the hepatitis vaccine before your interview, or even at all that one is totally up to you. Its a series or 3 shots over a 6 month period. and if you are leaving right after your interview then you wont be there to complete the series. Its only $140.00 and then another $20.00 when you get your results.
