Will you stop giving false news here, how can you applied last week and visa issues? That's impossible even far back 2011 when we applied for visitor it's takes exactly 2weeks to be issued now it's 2019 it's not that easy

its possible my brother,a friend of mine applied on Monday and got his visa on Wednesday. He is now in SA (sunny side) so what may not work for u ,will work for someone else.

Oga it's not false news okay

I have about 2 friends who it took just 24 hours to get visa late last year and early this year

So please calm down ,if it hasn't happen to you doesn't means it's not possible ,the world doesn't revolves around you .

I don't agree with you. Everybody has their own way and luck. When I applied for my study visa in 2016 it took 6 working days. Now it's taking forever. I also think the short term visas are on the better side than long terms.

You explained without insult it shows the level of Maturity. Thank you very much

I rejoice with those that had their visa without their precious time being wasted.l know that one day,as God lives,we will also get our own visa and we shall all be happy.This should not cause problem at all.l believe there is time for everything.

Demilade1:


Not the reason! I applied afresh with different documents for a new school. Just God's grace!

Demilade1, pls could you share the documents you sent for your second application? Though I was able to catch some things it would really help keep mine on track. Thanks in advance!

Manager007:




I can authoritatively inform you that if you submit just that Islamic marriage certificate for your Relative Permit, your application will be automatically rejected. The reasons being muslim marriages are not recognized under SA laws. Muslims in CapeTown are still trying to get this bill passed.

Under SA laws, you are both recognised as Life Partners. Which enjoys the same benefits of a Marriage visas as well

What you should do, is first to both sign an Affidavit before a lawyer or use the DHA form 1712-A , attesting that you are both over 18 and in a cohabitation, and in a relation that exclude other other parties and that you will or are already sharing bills. Sign that form and take to a lawyer or get it certified and signed before a police officer at a Police Station.

Thereafter, include a letter explaining why you married in the Islamic way and submit your application.

I can guarantee you, only then you will be issued a Relative Permit.

Very important to note, on any forms or the VFS, you are NOT applying for a Spousal Visa but a RELATIVE Visa. The are two different things. Spouse visas are for those who are married either in Court or under customary South African marriages e.g paying lobola etc. The issuance of a Marriage certificate in this case gives you full right to apply for Spousal permit.

If you want to work, study or conduct your own business with that Relative Visa, then include relevant documents which will come with conditions to either Work, or Study or Conduct Business

Spousal visas and/or Life Partner Visas are now called “ Visitor’s Visa ( 11(6)- To accompany spouse and work/study etc
If you have further questions, please feel to ask


Al the best

A Google search I made for the following questions directed me to this your post. This is a January 2018 post it's possible that laws could have changed. The way you answered the question showed you are quite knowledgeable on the matter and it made Google to put your post on the first page of search results. So I decided to quote you and ask you a few questions.

These are the questions;

1. Is a Nigerian citizen (man) on a tourist visa allowed to get married to a South African citizen (woman) in South Africa?

2. If the answer to question 1 is Yes, after the marriage can the man apply for a temporary residence permit in South Africa or must he return to Nigeria to apply for it?

3. If the answer to question 1 is No, in what way can a Nigerian man get married to his South African fiancee and move to South Africa without breaking either Nigerian or South African law?

Thank you.

Good Day NLs, Please how much is the current visa fee for holiday visitor. Thanks

I just tweeted about the delay in issuance of study permit at the Abuja high commission, I’ll advise everyone that has a delay in Abuja to do same and call in the home affairs minister to intervene. Let’s see what happens. Fingers crossed

Good morning house, this is another week Abuja High commission let this week be a week of good news for all Abuja applicant. Ooooooolll

Good Morning everyone here , please I need guidance or hints towards The South African Qualification Achievement (SAQA), I am about to apply for a masters admission to university of pretoria with deadline of August 31st for Non South African Students.

Please I need advice if I would be able to meet up with that deadline to commence the SAQA and the procedures involved , please I will so much appreciate any guide I would be getting towards the Evaluation, forms to fill, documents to send and the Fees involved.

I believe this would be helpful to others who would need this information as well.

Thank You

.

Amen oo. I'm patiently waiting.

DoubleGiant:

Be patient,, you will hear from them this month... Lagos treated the visa applications of those who applied in February last month,, I think they will be treating applications for march this month... so yours will come soon..

SAQA takes about tow weeks or less to get a feedback. What might take your time is how fast you can get your transcript.
What you will need are
1.) Undergraduate transcript attached with your degree certificate.
2.) WAEC certificate
3.) Unused WAEC scratch card
4.) There are two forms you'll print while applying on their to print and fill.
NOTE: You are to send all these document in hard copy to their mailing address on their site. You can't send the original of number 1-3, so you have to go to a near by law court and get the photocopies stamped (certifies true copy). Each page should coat about 100-150 Naira.
The SAQA fee is about 40,000 Naira excluding DHL, for the two documents you're vetting.
This Is for Masters degree.

My friend was denied twice and now he is in SA ..... said he entered through Mozambique and it was easy for him to process his papers while in SA through Mozambique. Pls does anyone know about moving into SA from Mozambique?

Since your friend came via Mozambique or Maputo he is in the best position to explain the route to you . however the Mozambique to SA is always via bush track / border without proper immigration check . The risk hazardous dont try it .Even if u succeed you become illegal in SA .

If I already have Msc and want to apply for either another Msc or PhD, do I need to also evaluate my waec result or I just need my Bsc and Credentials.

Please can someone recommend a hotel I can book for in Johannesburg. I am going for a tourist visa.

And I heard I have to make the hotel booking directly with the hotel management.

Thanks

She probably used the VIP process. I'm not certain. But what would she have done differently.

timaji2003:


But l know somebody that got her study visa in Lagos within 8 weeks.She applied in April and got it in June.Abuja has not been releasing any study permit since February.l stand to be corrected.
