cutieme:Had a lot to do with the contact I have over there. Getting a supervisor was my major problem. Once I was able to get one, I had my admission within 2 weeks. But I guess it all depends on your program of choice because I was admitted into a research based program. Please contact the international Office from where you can be directed isd@up.ac.za or csc@up.ac.za. Best of luck. |

Gud day all, pls how can I apply for SA business visa and d requirement. Tnks |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Manager007: 5:14pm On Oct 31, 2014 |
MojAyo: Here are the differences: South African Id- is a set of numbers that is uniquely allocated only to you and nobody else. It proves your identity. A green book called the id book is issued once you are 16yrs and above to this effect. You will need this number to apply for passport, work , loans and basically anything in South Africa. South African Id numbers is allocated to both Permanent residence Permit holders and South African citizens. Citizenship- simply means you are a citizen of that country. Having an ID number doesn’t make you a citizen. It only means your details are available on the National Population register/or home affairs (in this case) as a legitimate person in South Africa. Permanent residence- means permanent residence. You have chosen SA as your home. Permanent residence holders cannot travel on SA passport. Only SA citizens can travel on SA passport. Since you have said your son was born in SA, and has been issued a South African birth certificate, then you can apply for a SA passport for him. He can use this to travel to SA without visa. When your son has been issued a SA passport, you as the mother of a South African citizen can apply for permanent residence permit. |

Xeedorf: In as much as i know those ECO at SAHC denies visas for the flimsiest of reasons, i suppose there could be an indication as to why they consider N700k "insufficient funds". May i ask, what is your purpose of coming to South Africa? |

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by TYPOP(m): 9:36pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Xeedorf: As much as your account balance is important, cash flow is more important. If your balance is 700k and that came in a few weeks or days to the time you collected your balance while you have not had any major cash flow in the same account for the period, you have not demonstrated that you have enough means of sustainance. Cheers. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by TYPOP(m): 9:39pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
holyboss: Not only account balance but movement of funds in the account. Unless you can demonstrate that the balance had been siitting in that account for a long time to show them you had been saving it for your education. That being said, about 700k should be enough if there is cash flow. If there isn't cash flow, I would suggest between 1.5 and 3M. Those are my personal opinions please, not SA policies. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by TYPOP(m): 9:39pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
holyboss: Eh yeah, pele |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by TYPOP(m): 9:40pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Ogborokiri:. You need to get work permit from Nigeria first, not to just "travel" to SA and then work. Cheers and all the best. |

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by manikky: 8:23am On Nov 04, 2014 |
Hello guys and good job u are doing here. Please according to the new info about the repartration to be collected on or bfore februar next year... Is it possible gor someone to collect on my behalf in Nigeria...cos am still here on study permit and my daughter too on accompanying..so we have like 220k with the home affairs... I also have a friend with his family of four having like 440k ....with them. Traveling home to collect this makes no sense cos of the transport too.. Pls guys any idea on how to go about this. Samtol4 , Collinsfbi, Typop and others....ur advise is seriously needed here ooo. Thanks |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by TYPOP(m): 1:53pm On Nov 04, 2014 |
manikky: I'm actually also still clueless about that. We will need to seek for more information regarding this. I know the power of attorney is highly regarded in the South African constitution. If this however will apply to this scenario is yet to be understood. I hope to call the Nigerian Embassy soon and hope the person I speak with understands me and gives me the right response. Cheers. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by elume2020(m): 2:04pm On Nov 04, 2014 |
TYPOP:Its pretty tricky, One of the criteria to collect the deposit is that you present a booked return ticket to depart the Republic once just before the expiration of your visa. So its like the deposit becomes your return ticket which I presume many people have. Also its a means to avoid the ease of proof of repatriation on the critical skill permit, which ought to be given by the prospective employer. I hope to get back on this too ASAP. Should visit the Embassy in Lagos in December and I will update the house on my finding. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by manikky: 4:04pm On Nov 04, 2014 |
OK..thanks Typop and elume2020 for ur response. Pls do home affairs give study permit to students from university of south Africa...unisa.? |
