Thanksote author=eluquenson post=68177741]@kaleydd2000,

Deposit of N100k into your account is not a money lodgement oh.

If you have such in your statement, just explain what you do for a living in your introduction letter.

Why do you all keep using agents? Getting a visa is not hard once you have the valid documentation.

My question is can i submit application on behalf of my family without them coming with me to the vfs

yominent:

What kind of a question is that? If you are traveling with them why should you ask if you need to come with them to make the application?

You don't av to be rude and opinionated when seeking for help.

yominent:

You all have to be there for submission, but you or your wife can collect on behalf of your family after processing.

I just submitted my application with my wife and a baby on 30th of May and we have called for pickup on 5th of June that's like 4 Working days of processing and I went there with my wife and kid.

So you have to go with ur wife and kid but you cannpick up for them or use courier if not within Lagos so as to reduce the stress of travelling.

And for your info there is no need using agent. They will compromise your application. All the best.

D real reason dis forum was initiated was to grow us as reputable citizens...no boycotting no agents afterall if ur real reason for visas is for holidays ..it shldn't be a do or die.....

The noise as been every where that agents wld destroy u...if e got d visa today n years after u wana apply urslf or thru another agents..u discover mis leading stored documents

No wonder revoking of previouslt US visitors is rampant dis days..fud for thouts...

To answer d man with d agents umbrella..."YES" u must go with ur family

Pls is there anyways to mail the South African high commission in Abuja?

Processor01:


In Cape Town, I was paying R10,000 for an unfurnished studio apartment. It was a luxury apartment and worth every penny.

On the average, I'd say budget R8000 for a decent studio apartment. South Africa is a beautiful country - travel and see.

Thank you
