.
I think you have to start from your friend, ask him what he does for living, his immigration status, and the possibility of someone in your profession to reside and survive legitimately in SA. ask him for details. Most guys will not tell you the detailed info, they will tell you when you get to the bridge you will cross it. it is better to know how to cross the bridge before embarking on the journey.Best of luck

God Bless You

@ adeniye I am not in SA, That is why I think those residing in SA legally not by "arranging" papers, marriage or life partner should be able to give you info on what options you have.

May be you get some valuable info from this sites.
