Hotel reservation

How did you go about the hotel reservation? Was it a genuine booking?
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by dannie007(m): 4:34pm On Dec 10, 2019
What type of booking did you do before?? Prepaid reservation or just the normal Reservation?.

Good morning guys

Please guys I have a question..

I am about submitting my visa application for study permit. I have over 2.3m in my account, but it's a new account that was created and funded within 3months.. I also have a brother who wants to sponsor me, but he doesn't have up 2m in his account.. Please is it advisable for me to self sponsor myself using an account that I have barely run for 2months, or use my brother's statement of account? He is a banker and wants to give me that bank statement to his salary account.. I am very confused here because I have seen so many people denied visa because of this same bank issues..

The rate of refusals by the SA embassy in recent weeks is about the highest I have ever seen. Applicants now get refused for the slighest error. Anyways to answer your question please make sure your next application is foolproof especially your hotel reservation and bank statement.

If you are planning to reapply this year, then you have until thursday 12th Dec. to submit your application as the embassy is closing for the year on the said date.

Good luck in your next application.



Please hope they will accept tomorrow because i am on my way to Abuja for the application

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by cucumbar: 8:13am On Dec 12, 2019
Please, I was asked to visit for 2 weeks only(14 days, I assume).

In my introduction letter, I specified that I wanted to visit for 10 days.

Will it be an issue if I stay for, say 12 days?

No, there is no issue if you stay for 12days since your Visa is for 14days BUT no matter what happens, please do NOT overstay your visa duration.

Congrats once again.

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Incandescent(m): 8:03am On Dec 13, 2019
I'd advise you go with cash to VFS if you want to submit an application. They no longer accept card payment & they are yet to update it on their website. Very annoying set of people

You can't use bookings or any other hotel portals as your means of accommodation. You must book directly from the hotel.
