Marshall6:

dha is under works

All recent applicants. which platform did you use
/ vfs or dha

That where you are getting it wrong. It is still the money and resources you are looking at. [quote author=msbaileyz post=129423863][/quote]
You need to build some experiences, besides, it is rare for you to get a schengen visa first time on a virgin passport. Very rare, especially for tourist unless if you are lucky.

I saw that. First time applicant for (spain)schengen visa, no previous schengen

msbaileyz:


First time applicant

Any way, the information you provided is not sufficient.
If you can, please build your travel experience.
Visa is not about monies all the time or documents, that can also be an disadvantage.
From your feedbacks, looks like you do not have a travel history. That is key
Maybe you try visiting other places.
Goodluck.

Any previous schengen visa. Share some information

msbaileyz:
Hello house,

I and my husband got a refusal after submitting all required documents for a first time application

Application forms
Work and business documents
Multiple bank statements (work and personal) with over 60m balance
Marriage certificates and family pictures
Children’s pictures
Insurance
Flight booking
Fully paid hotel reservation
Holiday activities booking via viator
Purpose letter

And refusal was based on the justification of the purpose of the trip.
Please how more can I just justify the purpose of this trip because I taya ooo?

correct

saylawal2003:
Amount fully paid into BLS account and official receipt issued.

Tell us more about this category of visa. Thanks

LET THE Q AND A CONTINUE. THANK YOU

In this case, it is what she told the Uk authorities during her application , that matters. If you said you did stay for a period of 2 weeks during your application, and stayed 4months. They need to explain reasons for that. I noticed alot that they usually revisit previous applications when reviewing fresh ones. I hope this information helps!

Cashmadam:


Same process. Same documents. Hope her 4 month stay won't be an issue...

Good luck!

safe trip . My regards

mekanta7:


Yes i sent a follow-up email on Monday morning, then the visa dropped yesterday afternoon. My travel date is next week.

great

DHA Application, congrats. Your travel date is when? did you send mails to follow up

mekanta7:
Received my Evisa, multiple entry.
Application date 9th March. DHA application

was it today you received it?

hmmm......

CAN ANYONE TELL US CATEGORICALLY IF APPOINTMENT IS AVAILABLE NOW?

News Update:
Department of Home Affairs is currently upgraded and synergized with the Border Management Authority.... Currently, an upgrading ongoing across the platforms , reason for the back and forth with the websites.

Please take note for future applications and alternate with vfs if your application is urgent.

Goodmorning.

lord have mercy.

@justwise, please close this thread. A group for portugal exist already for this purpose.

Those that applied for UK visa recently, what was the response time? As crowd no dey now , Goodmorning House?
Seems they do not have much pressure for now.

how much did you pay?

saylawal2003:
I have submitted my application. They accepted walk-in booking at their office. The online booking is temporarily down.

Kindly i ask, for those of you that applied recently for a uk visa. What is the standard processing time?

no dates na, anyone got date?

The urgency matters. evisa takes a longer time tho you get response inbetween, but sticker visas are way above 3 -4 month for response.

metodman:
Morning guys, I'm trying to apply for my mom to visit. She came for two weeks in 2022 so it wouldn't be her first time. I understand there's e-visa option now.

May i know which is better between e-visa and going there physically (Sticker)?

Thanks guys

Goodluck.

Has anyone tried to apply on the home affairs DHA Website lately.. https://ehome.dha.gov.za/epermit/home


what was the feedback as i learnt many cannot upload documents. Please share your encounters.

Do you know anyone in SA?

John202412:


I tried to email dha contact but they do not respond at all, or respond very late, from my previous experience .
Sent also to border management authority.

Check for your period of stay [quote author=Sh3ba post=129197237]I got my passport,
My visa was approved,
I am a first timer,
I got a one month and 15 days visa.

But the programme I am going for has ended because I didn't get an appointment on time.[/quote

send a mail to the customer service on the website.

John202412:
Hey guys, i have a south african Evisa.
In the form i declared the entry point would be Cape Town but now i changed the plans a little bit and would like to arrive to JNB first.
Do you know if it is going to be a problem?

Copy , draft a mail and send.
Goodluck!

better to be a cleaner where things work and you switch job later than to collect 6m naira that hasnt gotten value.

Hello Everyone.
Please i just feel it is important we moderate things a bit.
For those with pending issues with their evisas, please go back back this thread , you find alot of information on that.
For those who are switching to sticker visas, please read back back the thread.
It is not easy to be repeating the same thing all the time.
It is really overwhelming.
You guys should also do some research ok.
Have a great evening.

@justwise please close this thread. There is already an existing poland group, check
