brainbucks:


You seem more worried about this matter than either your imaginary friend or his wife.

If this so called 'friend' obtained a valid work permit, then it's gotta take some mind-blowing degree of ignorance for him to claim not being privy to the information and processes involved in having his wife join him.

To be clear, not every country supports cutting corners like Nigeria. So do not be deluded into assuming that any connection whatsoever will facilitate overriding the due processes involved in getting SA visa of whatever category.

So, as unbelievable as your narration seems, the only way is to just zero your mind so that your 'friend' can zero his mind so that the wifey can zero her mind and knack back out to Nigeria and be comfortable with following the rules for once.

Classic!!

bomboclat!

Hi House. Please i Need help from anyone who has had this experience. I was at the SA embassy today to do document check towards submission for critical skills Visa and was told that i also have to include flight reservation and proof of accomodation. This two are not required for critical skills visa and i was surprised that they brought them up. I wish to know if any of the guys (@femiaction, @pyr8te) that have recently gotten critical skills Visa had this documents included. I will be most grateful for any helpful response.

Sorry bruv. Been extremely busy hence d late response. I didn't (couldn't) apply for my family immediately. .It has to be tru VFS but I did Indicate they would be accompanying me. I'm just going to apply for them soon. As par Including proof of accomodation n flight reservation, I heared so from a friend who wants to apply n I'm surprised as it wasn't required for me. But I've come to view dos at d SA high commission as pple dat act on impulse. .hence a lot of unreasonable demand are made on the fly

Buhari got 1.9 million votes in Kano, 1.7 million votes in Katsina and 1.3 million votes in Kaduna while he got less than 200,000 votes in the whole of South-South plus South-East states. Now tell me, which region should get more appointments. You cannot work for UBA and go to GTBank to collect salary. Let South-South plus South-East states get their appointments from Goatluck Jonascam, he still goes about with several aides.

spot on..This got me cracking

I applied from lagos..took 2 weeks. I included d doctors letter and X ray forms not d actual X ray stuff.

Sorry bruv..just seeing this. Never got ur email . As for ur question, ul av to register wit dia medical society over there..dats d much I know. If there are waivers for being a qualified doctor (being a different kinda profession) maybe d experts in d house can tell us

Hello house. I got my Critical Skills Visa today. Many thanks to the gurus in the house who helped out on d occasions that I was stuck n needed some guidance. It was all a DIY thing from start to finish. Thanks all

Picture of the blood stained bedsheets or na lie

Hi nasty.. . Il soon be in ur shoes..I'm applying for a Critical Skills visa tomorow which I'm positive would be granted. My wife too is gainfully employed here in naija n my initial apprehension was wot she would do if she comes as a dependant but I read in some other thread dat she can change her condition after arrival in d Republic to either general work visa or student visa. Seeing as ua in already. Which area would you advice one t settle in..moderate cost of living n security..

So...what is d koko of all dis long talk?

Thanks for the quick response Sultan..much appreciated boss

[quote author=sultan003 post=31507630]
Oga sultan and all d other gurus in d house. I Don come again. Came across some readings online with respect to d CSV and tot to seek clarification here.
A guy wrote that a friend of his was issued with a CSV and it was stated on it that entry to d Republic cud be any date before 2020.02.15, (I presume d fellow's visa was granted for 5 yrs perhaps cos he had a job offer already ). Now my question is this. For someone who doesnt have a job offer at d time d application was considered and who will typically be granted 1year in dis instance, what is d implication of d fact that as it's stated in d conditions attached to d visa that u av 90 days to seek for employment at first and where not secured, apply for another 90 day extension? It sort of contradicts the 1 year 'validity' of d visa don't you think?

Many thanks in advance

Pls is it only in Alagbon I.e. Lagos state that this can be done? Can't it be done at any state police HQ?

spousal permit is given to a foreigner whose husband/wife is legally in sa either by working, study permit or Ict.
the spousal permit can be reendorsed to study or work in SA.
According to the list of critical skill gazette, the minimum proof of financial capability is R3000, but the sahc looks at cash flow.

Boss..10 gbosas for you! U do well and I'm really grateful for the clarification.

Many thanks for the response boss. Trully grateful.I read online and thought that spousal permit is for foreigners married to a south african citizens or permanent residents which thereafter can be endorsed for either work or business..are you confirming this category of permit applies also to dependants of a critical skills visa 'holder' (wife in this case)?

Also,didn't say how much is the minimum cash reserve needed to prove ability to survive within the 1st 12 months in the Republic -I.e proof of financial capability..pardon my Oliver twist nature bro

@sultan..abeg bros.no vex..can u pls list out d requirements for the Critical skills visa if one is applying from naija here. I'm saying this cos yes, I know for example d confirmation of skills letter isn't required any longer but hey..na naija we dey. Dey cud be funny that's y i decided to cross all I's n dot my Tees..i know d onus lies on d applicant to prove beyond reasonable doubt why d visa shud be granted hence all d ish. Dat said, I'm torn btw applying for dependant permit for wify going by all its demerits (not being able to work or study). What other option do you advise to bring her along n get her engaged gainfully. Lastly..what minimum amount would you advise to have in ones account here.. Apologies for the long one bro..

@ elume2020. Did u apply in RSA or here in nigeria?

sultan003:


I know of someone that got his critical skills in berlin using his membership certificate from the south african institute of mechanical engineering, on the condition that he submits his ecsa membership certificate in 6months

depending on where you are applying from you MIGHT sail through using SAIME certificate, but as we be 9ja, it is better to wait for ecsa to finish before you apply, if you want to try your luck without it, just know that it is a 50/50 thing because one of the requirement said: "proof of an application for a certificate of registration from the professional body recognised by saqa"

ecsa is the professional body, saime, saiie etc are voluntary bodies under ecsa

Hi sultan..i think the challenge here is that SAIME may be a non statutory body but still recognised by SAQA n the other one is the statutory body. The Critical Skills Visa requirements didn't state that it had to be a statutory body that does d assessment of the skills etc. I just registered with the Institute of Information Technology professional of SA n dey did d assessment of my skills n all that (a recent service dey started offering) and they are a non statutory body. If they took d initiative to do this n are issuing the written confirmation of skills (which I learnt isn't required sef if you can show proof of registration with d body) then I think d SAIME shud suffice..

sultan003:


Hi, saw your mail, and I did reply.. did you check your spam box? Anyway I will reply you again

Ok. Il expect it. Didn't check d spam box tho...

pyr8te:

Thanks a million boss..sent you an email..il shoot you my personal email add once you respond. .i guess that's how d system works..

@Sultan.i didn't get any response still..could you please send me ur email? Mine is my full names hence don't wanna put it up here..thanks a lot

sultan003:


you can apply alone, if you indicate that you are married, you will have to submit your marriage certificate and her bio page. Take a look at the requirements, if you dont have, I can email you.

she can apply for the spousal permit anytime.

Thanks a million boss..sent you an email..il shoot you my personal email add once you respond. .i guess that's how d system works..

sultan003:


Not compulsory, but if she is coming along then she has to submit with you for a spousal permit and attach your marriage certificate

Thanks sultan..yes she is comming along..but not just yet..say 6 months after I'm 'settled' in d Republic. She has a job here too so I don't wanna pull her off just like dat. So I'm saying is it alright I go ahead n apply alone now (indicating of course dat I'm married), get d visa, move n settle in d republic, den she files (say 6 months afterwards) to join me.?
