IamJerry: PLEASE "JUSTWISE AND COLLINSFBI" KINDLY HELP.... Can a purchased return ticket be extended? It is very possible, just call ur airline customer care to suspend ur return date, and make sure u call before that day....all u will av to pay for is change of date which is just a token, dpending on where u ticket originates from. It is cheaper if it originates from SA other than Nija. 1 Like 1 Share |

Good morning collins and justwise.how are u guys and all nairalanders.can u imagine I wa denied yesterday because of my yellow card which I got from the port health authority at the airport.I called them yest morning and a lady told me to go and get a new yellow card after I gave her my passport no to check the status of my application.but when I later called again,another lady picked it and said my passpot has been returned back to vfs.imagine that they shld ve just called me if they were not clear about the card earlier rather than denying me the last day as the letter read 3rd of april. Now I want to reapply next week again but I am a medical doctor and I just finished a one year internship on the 31st of jan and waiting to go for my nysc in july.I want to apply to go in june.please can I include that I just finished internship and show them all my pay slipsduring the internship.I still have abt 42k in my account and the cash was from the salary during the internship.that was how I did the first application in addition to my uncle's documents I attached.I want to attach only my documents this time around.can they accept the fact that I just finished a programme in jan and waiting for another in july which I told them in the first application.My mind tells me they just wanted to deny me cos the yellow card was from the airport.I don't want to use any agent and I'm afraid it may take long again.pls u all shld advise a brother |

I think the reason was just an excuse to deny you. For the sake of other, i will try as much as possible to upload a copy of the accepted Yellow card in and out for others to see, as that is what i use personally. Meanwhile you can get another cards and reapply but try as much as possible to simplify your application by submitting simple verifiable documents as follow: 1.Your passport. 2.Paid Hotel reservation 3.Flight reservation with South African airways. 4.Yellow card 5.My letter of introduction from your hospital 6.A letter of reference from your doctors' association in the hospital. 7.Your bank statement. (the 420k is ok) 8.Write a detail visa application letter to include the your reasons for visiting and assurance that you will come back. 9.Marriage cert if you are married (optional) 10.Consent letter from your wife if married(optional) 11.Evidence that you will come back to your country (A letter of absent from work/leave letter) Gbamm over n out 2 Likes |

Hello, I applied for my south african visa today but my biometrics werent taken. I included in the application a copy of a uk visa I got in 2009. Is it because of this? Cos surely, one's biometrics need to be taken when applying for a visa. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by opsy4real1: 7:18pm On Apr 11, 2013 |
biometrics aint taken for south africa visa... jiljosh: Hello, |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by jiljosh(m): 7:26pm On Apr 11, 2013 |
^^ God bless you bro Does having a previous UK visa in any way speed up your visa processing? And whats the earliest time your south african visa can be ready? |
