Pass on the first submission.

It certifies that your pack passed all eight checks against the authority’s requirements as published at the time of review — which removes the preventable causes behind most rejections. It can’t bind a government decision, and requirements occasionally change without notice. Our backstop: if an application we certified is rejected for something we checked, your Resolution Desk diagnosis and rescue handling fee are on us.

Passport applications and renewals, CAC registrations, annual returns and post-incorporation filings, driver’s licence and vehicle paper renewals, tax clearance applications and NAFDAC submissions. If your document type isn’t listed, ask — the checks generalise well, and we add authorities based on demand.

Instant Check validates everything a machine can measure: formats, sizes, photo specifications, and whether identity fields agree across documents. Specialist Review adds a trained human reading your actual documents for what automation can’t judge — whether a CAC objection is likely, whether an unusual name situation needs an affidavit, whether a requirement applies to your edge case. For routine renewals, Instant is usually enough; for CAC filings and first-time applications, we recommend the specialist.

Instant Check returns results in minutes. Specialist Review is typically completed within one business day, and the priority re-check after you fix flagged items is included, so a correction loop doesn’t cost you another fee or another week.

Absolutely — that’s the point of the certificate. Many customers use Pre-Check alone and file on the government portal themselves. If you’d rather skip the portal entirely, the full price of your check is credited when you upgrade to full processing within 30 days.
