Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by shineforth: 11:31am On Aug 22, 2023
The VFS E visa platform seems not to be working as I can't sign up to begin an application. I keep getting this error NOT FOUND when trying to sign up/register while inputting email details.

Does anyone know about the efficiency of the DHA E visa platform?. are they now fast with processing E visa applications or take long?.. so I can apply as an alternative

I am more conversant with VFS E visa platform but unfortunately I can't sign up with the NOT FOUND error message that keeps popping up on the sign up page.

Please assist

Thanks

My SA Evisa application was rejected on the ground off "invalid bank Statement". Statement was downloaded online with every paged stamped. My question is "can I appeal this decision immediately or should wait for a month? It is stated that appeal can be done within 10days of this rejection. What do you advice?

Good day
Please My E-visa was denied with the reason "The bank statement is invalid and therefore you do not qualify for a visitors visa".
My statement of account was signed and stamped on every page.
I don't know where I went wrong, Kindly advise please
Please, when did you apply? I think you would need to attach a reference letter from the bank.

Hi folks, just to update for those in similar shoes:
1) my e-visa is out - today Thursday 17th
2) applied on Tuesday, the 8th (night) . So basically it took 7 working days/1 week and 1 day
Used DHA
3) you really may not need police report , if you’re going on visitors less than 3 months.
I used th following docs:
1) flight itinerary
2) passport
3) hotel booking
4) conference invite letter
5) personal introduction letter
6) 3 months bank statements
7) confirmation of employment letter
8. 3 months payslip
9) past visas and current residence permit in the UK
10) submitted yellow fever card but don’t think it’s relevant (it’s expired and I’m not travelling through a yellow fever region anyways). Just added it in case

Best of luck to everyone else.
Please can I have your WhatsApp number, I'm looking forward to apply for SA visa but I have no idea please can you share some things with me ?

Reapply immediately. Get a reference letter from your bank and attach to your bank statement. That was what happened to my wife. Appeal isn't on for evisa. They sent us a mail to that effect. We reapplied and adjudication outcome is out after about 7-8 working days.

The challenge today is that we are unable to see the link to download the adjudication outcome that came out today
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by destinedtee(m): 5:33pm On Aug 23, 2023
Please o... The e visa page has displayed 'ADJUDICATION OUTCOME RECEIVED'
We got that on the page today but the downloading icon for the outcome which is usually in front is not there.

Has anyone had this experience? What should we do? I am thinking of waiting till tomorrow morning before mailing them
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Sageofekiti: 5:50pm On Aug 23, 2023
Please, a quick question. Is the processing time for a e-visa application calculated from the day of application submission, documents submission or the day of payment? Thank you very much.

I believe it is from the day of payment. Bear in mind that they calculate based on working days

I am experiencing the same issue now, I applied on the 14th and I just got an email saying the outcome was received but I don't know how to check if the application was successful or rejected.

We sent a mail to them today and it was resolved today as well.

They rejected the application giving INVALID BANK STATEMENT as reason. We got a reference letter from the bank but they still rejected the application.

It is well

If you can't find the download icon beside the 'ADJUDICATION OUTCOME RECEIVED"' send a mail to them. That's what we did and they fixed the issue. Mail hacc@dha.gov.za
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 5:38pm On Aug 24, 2023
Mostly when the application comes without that icon, it is rejected. Mostly like that

Na wa o. What is going on with the SouthAfrican E-visa?.
Even with a reference letter, do they derive special joy in denying applicants ?.
Please @ hunee, any insights to give?

I still don't understand what they mean by INVALID BANK STATEMENT. We attached a reference letter to the bank statement after they rejected our first application.

We got the adjudication outcome today and they still rejected the second application for the same reason of invalid bank statement.

It seems they are purposely denying people the visa

For the second application, we uploaded additional documents to ensure they consider us... They still rejected the application citing invalid bank statement even after getting a reference letter. A colleague of my wife was rejected due to yellow fever certificate expiry or something like that. She didn't attach reference letter to her bank statement and they didn't say anything about that.

It just seems they are intentionally denying people

It is well

Sa has been refusing visas alot lately. You can visit some other countries for now. I think they are trying to control visitors

Good evening house, I got this mail from home affairs.

Has anyone been in this situation? And what was the outcome?

I am not sure of the additional documents needed.

You are required to electronically add / finalize supporting documents to your online application within 14 days of this letter. Failure to do so will lead to
your application being CANCELLED and any money paid will not be refunded to you.
Should you have any queries, please call the Home Affairs Helpline on 0800601190 or visit our website @ www.d

This is normal. Just make payment and await adjudication outcome. Don't bother yourself about this once you have uploaded the primary documents required and supporting documents. Just make payment and await the outcome.

Thank you for your response. I already made payment.

Although today makes it 15 working days since I applied. Does evisa take this long?

My wife's first application took around 4 working days before getting the outcome (I mean from the date of payment)

The second application took around 8 days. Is the status showing AWAITING ADJUDICATION OUTCOME?... If yes, just be patient. You will get it. I am optimistic you will get it soon and it will be a positive response.
