Hi, please i got this from the SA embassy and it’s a bit confusing because i only uploaded docs that applied to me when i was applying. Now, I am unable to upload docs again. Please has anyone faced a similar challenge? How did you solve it?

dynamicd28: Good day everyone, just a quick update, as at today I have sent 36 emails on the above matter. The latest reply from Hacc signed by Veronica Maluleke asked me to check for a letter obtained under: payment/supporting documents/letters. I checked but there was nothing. DHA EVISA HISTORY: Application submission: 3/10/2023 Supporting documents upload completed : 12/10/2023 Time spent waiting for DHA evisa: 4 months Thanks all for the comments and information on this thread, special thanks to Hunnee, who takes the time to answer/comment on every question regarding DHA evisa. I have decided to try the sticker Visa application through VFS Abuja. Kindly help with the following questions: 1. There is a notice on the VFS Nigeria website applicable to all South Africa applicants in Lagos, Port-Harcourt and Abuja displayed on 18/09/2023, number 3 on the list of documents is Police clearance certificate. I am applying for a short stay visitor's visa and in my experience with previous sticker visa applications prior to covid -19 and more recently with DHA evisa, police clearance was never required. Those that recently applied physically at Abuja VFS, was a police clearance certificate required? 2. If I choose not to pay for the SMS service, will I get email notifications? Thanks |

Hi, Trust you are fine. Thank you for the compliment. Sorry about your ongoing ordeals with the DHA. Most times, when you do not see the eye icon, the visa was not approved. This is general observation as many persons has confirmed this to be true. I advise you re apply for an evisa and attach an appeal letter with your supporting documents explaining what happened in the previous application and your outlook for the present application. It should be a gentle appeal. I have sent this advise to someone here who contacted me in the past and it worked. As regards, sticker visa for SA, Kindly note the processing times. I waited 4 month for mine to be approved and paid about 80k for the entire process last year. I advise you re- apply and hope for the best this time. Finally, i recently sent a mail to the home affairs to make some inquiries and the response was thus. 1. If you are applying for a visa, ensure your bank statement is 3 month or more. 2. Ensure you attach a reference letter from your bank. 3. Ensure the first and the last pages of your bank statement are signed and stamped, if not all. It is also on record as someone here confirmed that banks do not acknowledge the home affairs inquiry on an applicant bank statement on time. These delays in feedbacks lead to rejections of these affected persons. This is an internal affairs not everyone is exposed to. So sometimes if your visa gets rejected, it could be the bank verification process was not successful. Be sure to carry along your bank by sending them an official email when your application exceeds the processing times especially for first timers. I wish everyone the best. Goodluck dynamicd28: |

Hello everyone here. Is it possible to obtain a reprint of a South African police certificate originally issued in December 2023 but not utilized? The person is contemplating applying for a Research visa to South Africa this month and cannot locate the previously issued police certificate. 1 Like |

My Boss, I and another colleague submitted our documents on the 1st of February as a Group. DHL sent her a message yesterday and her passport was received today with one year visa. I and my other colleague are yet to hear from them after the first message they sent that it was delivered to the Consulate. We applied as a group, just wondering why they chose to send only hers? |

From my personal experience, airlines usually make troubles with MSc students over return ticket. The few times they have asked me for a return ticket, I have always insisted I am a doctoral student, and then they let me board. Please NEVER forget your Yellow card when travelling, this is very important victorAAA: 1 Like |

Hello everyone. I am trying to visit all African countries without using a plane as part of a Guinness world record . You can read more about it here. https://independent.ng/guinness-world-records-nigerian-traveler-sets-to-tour-54-african-countries-by-road-sea/ I'll need to get a South African visa and enter by their land borders eventually which is likely to be an issue. By the time I want to go to South Africa, I'll have gone to other countries like Morocco, Algeria, Kenya etc. I don't have a Schengen visa or travel history to South Africa. I also can't afford to wait til long for the visa because I am chasing a Guinness world record. My questions are 1Can I use the evisa to go to South Africa by land 2 what can I do to improve my chances of getting a South African visa. Would using an agent help. I could also submit a statement of account with over 15000 dollars in it if necessary. Would that help 3 I am raising money for the Nigerian red cross so I may be able to get help from other red cross organisations across Africa. Would that help Basically what's the best way to get a South African visa under the circumstances. Thank you |

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by donteebalo(m): 5:46pm On Feb 20 |
Obianujueo:You shouldn’t have paid for ticket when you’re yet to get a visa approval. SA take btw two to three months to these days to process visa. I was very fortunate to get an approval on the 15th January 2024 while I applied on the 4th of Dec 2023. That is far beyond one month. |

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Emmamay10: 12:18pm On Feb 25 |
Good day people. Please, I need your urgent advice on what to do. I applied to SAQA for my credentials verification this year January. I have made the payment. After some weeks, I received a mail from SAQA, informing me to make a payment ( credential verification payment) to the credential awarding institution, as requested by the institution. I did immediately and forwarded the payment receipt to SAQA as requested by them. After some days, I contacted my credentials awarding institution to confirm if they have received a mail from SAQA, I was told they are yet to get a mail from SAQA, as regard my credentials verification . I sent a mail to SAQA about the development, no reply up til now. I sent another email copying both SAQA and my credentials awarding institution, yet nothing. According to SAQA, I only have 3 weeks for my credentials awarding institution to respond to them , in order to avoid cancellation. This timeline will elapsed this week Wednesday. I don't know what to do. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Africankel(m): 9:08pm On Feb 25 |
Favourafrica: If you appeal and show evidence that the account isn't fraudulent, you'll escape the ban. Otherwise, you are sure not to step foot in SA till after whatever ban they'll place on you. |
