Oh wow, this is more complicated than I thought. Is it that I can't get it here or SA is just the best option? Can I provide my own bank statement to show money for maintenance and not the church? it's a really big church I don't know if they're okay with releasing their bank statement but I know I can get the other documents from them. Also, I'd like if you can help me with the form number. The one I've seen is DHA-1738 which is for work. Thank you. infofta: |

hello guys, has anyone gotten admission letter from University of Johannesburg, Unizulu or university of Kwazulu for phd for next year session? i applied but i have not received admission letter from any. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by infofta(m): 8:03pm On Nov 25, 2016 |
@ Fahila If you apply for temporarily resident visa for any work related activities from Nigeria, there is high chances the visa will be denied. There are people already in south Africa who can do the work you are going for. You can only get a work visa if you qualify under critical skills. So, apply for a visitors visa to attend Church Programme or conference. Use the church documents and your bank statement. Or apply for a visitors visa as a Tourist if you have good bank balance. All the best. |

@samuelUMOH Okay thanks, cos it seems risky going on a visitors visa then trying to apply from SA, I want to do the right thing. What's the form for the voluntary permit? And would it be valid for 11months?thanks. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by samuelUMOH(m): 12:38pm On Nov 26, 2016 |
fahila:Check their website valid for 1 - 3 years depending on consular approval |

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by infofta(m): 1:30pm On Nov 26, 2016 |
@ Khez If you are going for tourism you must provide employment letter, paid hotel reservation, Yellow card, 3 months bank statement with a minimum of 500k. You must run the account for the 3 months. There are factors that will determine your success, your nature of work, how much you earn, your bank balance, if you are married or single etc. If you apply for 5 days, there will be a condition on the visa which will not allow you to stay more than 5 days. 1 Like |

@ fehila A volunteer work visa is also a type of work visa. If you are successful, it will be indicated on the visa that you are a visitor, working for xx Church as a volunteer. It's valid for 1-3 years. If you are not applying for critical skills, It's hard to get any work related permit from Nigeria. Read more on: http://www.dha.gov.za/index.php/types-of-temp-res-permits |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by fahila: 5:16pm On Nov 26, 2016 |
@infofta Okay thanks, but my problem is that is it allowed for me to do that? Start with a visiting then try to get work, won't that seem suspicious? What if I'm now denied when I'm already there, isn't it better it's denied here and I inform the church ahead and save my money than make arrangements and I'm denied there and waste rent and ticket money. I understand your reasons but who's to say if I would be denied or not. infofta: |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by infofta(m): 6:05pm On Nov 26, 2016 |
@ fahila I know few people who tried the same thing and was denied. They later came on visitors visa. You can try your case might be different. But make sure the church sends you proper documentation which include, contract of employment stating it's a voluntary work without pay. Your ability to meet living expenses while in the country. In the form of bank statements from you or, and your employer. Registration documents of the employer, and other supporting documents. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by fahila: 8:52pm On Nov 26, 2016 |
@infofta Alright thanks I'll give it a try, hopefully things go well. Also is it possible to use my mom's account? I'm 21, I recently finished school so I don't have a "fat account". I just want to take a year off to volunteer now before life starts cos once I start working I might never get the time and opportunity again. infofta: 1 Like |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by staggerlee: 9:13pm On Nov 26, 2016 |
fahila: Been following your request concerning your volunteer job opportunity in SA. What I will say is since your church is a big church like you said, I think they should have a protocol office that should handle all your travel documentation, you shouldn't be the one looking for a visa up and down. If they can't give you necessary documents for your application, they should handle it themselves. You are going to work for them for free so they should at least get you your visa. #myopinion 1 Like |

Hmmmmmm Thanks a lot, but what if i have more money than how much i earn,and must i mention i work before I'd be granted visa? Can't anything about my work step aside? infofta: |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by fahila: 9:40pm On Nov 26, 2016 |
Exactly what I was thinking until I spoke with them. They explained that they have so many volunteers from different countries and all these countries have different requirements so in order not to mislead people they ask you to find out everything your country requires and they are ready to provide you with whatever you need. I think that's reasonable enough. staggerlee: |
