Hello House,

I am about to apply for a study visa and will like to know if the application will be done at VFS or at the South African embassy? Secondly, will it be required that a repatriation fee be paid? if yes? How much will be paid?


Thank you in advance
1. South African Embassy attends to study Visa and not VSF; kindly go to south African embassy.
2. Repatriation fee is not required

1. Please has the ban been lifted on ATM withdrawal in the Rebulic using Naira Master card?
Can we now withdraw from south africa atm with our Nigeria cards?

2. Please I want to know if it is good for me to convert my naira to dollar here in Nigeria and latter change it from dollar to rand when i get to the republic.

3. And what is the maximum rand some one can carry along when travelling that the law enforcement will allow?

I need your view on it..... Thanks..

Please anyone there with answers?
STUDY VISA TAKE JUST 10 WORKING DAYS THAT IS TWO WEEKS FROM YOUR DATE OF SUBMISSION.. THE ONLY THING THAT MAY CAUSE DELAY IS WHEN THEY CALL YOU FOR ADDITIONAL DOCUMENT. IT IS ONLY SOUTH AFRICAN EMBASSY THAT ATTENDS TO STUDY PERMIT AND NOT VSF... IF YOU SUBMIT ON THURS 28TH JAN YOU WILL BE TOLD TO COME AND PICK YOUR INTL PASSPORT ON 12TH OF FEB...

GOODLUCK


THE EMBASSY IS AT OKOYA THOMAS V.I YOU CAN GET A TRICYCLE FROM OBALENDE GOING TOWARD EKO HOTEL ROUND ABOUT V.I

MMIA means Murtala mohd International airport in Lagos. Well that is if you intend leaving for SA thru Lagos. Its true. They are experiencing major backlogs at the embassies. If your school can get in contact with home affairs directly that wud be good.
But like I said you need to pray after submitting ur application.

Yes I.e medical reports and radiology
STUDY PERMIT

I was at The Embassy today and some applicants were screened out due to the fact that their bank statement was below 50,000 rands.

and they were told to come back next week

Also make sure you have a particular form that is been used by the embassy because most often time they accept the forms they gave out during applicants enquirers.... well you may be lucky...


Ensure that your programme has date of likely completion.

@ muhaogunlo, pls my school registrar said she didnt receive any mail from SAQA and my school registrar said she cant write mail to SAQA except a mail from SAQA. Pls what else can i do.
Woww; this is a serious issue.. Nothing can be done without your school's reply to the mail. Why don't you find a means at letting her understand that it just to confirm that you graduated from the institution..

Please how is kenyan airways. I have not made a trip with kenyan airways before even though i know it is being managed by KLM.
Please share your experience with them if you have fly with them before.
sure you asked for cheap or cheapest flight? and you should be able to endure.. because most time you need to be full of endurance in flying cheap flight. And you might not be able to compare convenience / less delay you may have in higher paid flight to lower paid flight.

@Segzy201 why all this headache you causing for your self sure you saw/read the solution I gave you... That was the exact step I took when I was faced with that challenge. I wished someone told me... But it took me months to take such step.. Go to your registrar/academic office tomorrow morning tell them you want them to sent an email to saqa telling saqa that your certificate is indeed an authentic one.. Follow the comment I made on your question and see if their would not be a speedy solution.

You can tell someone in SA to scan it clearly and send it to you via email, then you will print it in coloured in Nigeria. Its safer that way though they don't usually ask for it, it's the original of the SAQA that they always want to sight.
Thanks Broo. How about using my SAQA evaluation certificate that was scanned and sent to me via email? This one that you said original saqa? Because I only have the printed copy with me.

pls saqa said dey hv sent d mail to my school for verification but my school say they dont see any mail. pls i ask dem to resend but dey said dey will i even call der customer line said same tin pls what can i do now to ask dem to resend it because i need d certificate urgently
It so simple Broo just get your school to write a letter of "To Whom It May Concern" addreesing it to SAQA.. Stating that u graduated from that institution and that ur certificate or statement of result is genuine using any of this options..... Your school as sender of the email OR With your school envelope and stamp; then send it to saqa via any courier using ur school as the sender. Sure you will get saqa evaluation certificate without delay.
