I was at VFS Lagos today for submission and i didn’t spend up to 2hrs to submit my application. Though my submission ticket is No. XX and I met few peeps there too, but the process was fast.

Yea it has been very fast of late. Can you please remove your ticket number.

It's not like anything is wrong but try to reveal less on the internet

Done, thanks

Sorry for the late response. The email is Veronica dot Loving at dha dot gov dot za

I hope you get the email format. I applied in May and my study permit was issued in two days.

I don't know that people still go to this shithole country. SA people hate Nigerians

Shoyomi:

Hello,
Thank you for your response. Was at the VFS office today, it cost approximately N34k.
Please another question, how can i certify my Marriage Certificate in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Abuja? I was told to go to Abuja but i reside in Lagos. (2) How can i get a medical aid for study in SA for 12 months?
Thank you.

Go to the momentum website and complete the online form. You will get to the payment page. Pay with your card and your medical aid certificate will be emailed to you. Here is the link https://mmsa.momentum.co.za/mmsa/infocentre/studentapp.jsp

I think you have to go to Abuja. I have heard someone here say it can be done elsewhere but I am not too sure of that. Please go back about 10 pages or so and search, you may find the person's response there.

If you opt to go to Abuja, there are touts/agents who will attempt to 'assist' you there at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It should be done in a day.

Cheers and all the best.

So kind of you, thank you sir.

I am simply giving back since I was also helped here.

Someone should please help me on how to make a hotel reservation directly. I hear they don't accept reservations from third parties like bookings.com and hotels.com any longer.

Where are you going in SA?

Yes it’s Tourist Visa, just package your documents very well so you won’t have to spend extra money when you get there. I spent 500 for two copies of A4 colour print out.E pain me die

This is what I normally do, make my reservation on Booking.com, after doing that I will add the hotel number on whatsapp then chat them up to make a reservation for me with my details on their letterhead, and forward to my mail. But remember to tell them the Embassy don’t accept third party booking...
