Thread for Acrra Ghana applicants

[J.Kadi]

What is the average cost of the Medical exam in CFA nations such as Ivory coast, Bénin, Togo...?

I’d suggest you check the CIC website for the approved medical clinics for your location and then call the number listed to find out the cost. Every location is different. If you’re in Ghana there’s only 2 clinics to chose from and it is either 400ghc (approx $80usd) or 700ghc (approx $140usd). Hopes this helps!

 

[J.Kadi]

I don't know. Perhaps you can check other forums. Do guys in Benin and Togo use AVO?

They do...AVO is responsible for immigration applications for 12 countries: Ascension, Benin, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea (refugees), Liberia, Nigeria, Sao Tome e Principe, Sierra Leone, St. Helena, Togo and Tristan da Cunha.

I believe Monday is a holiday in Ghana so AVO will be closed. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

I checked. Yes, Monday May 27 is a holiday in ghana.

It's not a holiday. It was cancelled this year so AVO & VFS should be working today.

 

[jennysmith]

According to the VFS Global website, they will be closed. But if you live in the city, you can take a chance. Those who travel from neighbouring nations should take precautions.

Nothing yet o. I'm considering emailing them. How about you; anything?

Nothing here too. I think an email is a good idea

 

[Candidladyval]

No need to email them. You've waited this long already. An email will not speed things up. Emails from AVO have been scarce since last week signaling another slow interval before they pick up speed again as has been their practice so just be patient
