TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by egbom: 12:38pm On Jun 22, 2025
Hi everyone, any ideas would help..
I got a 2 year study permit in February. My husband applied shortly after I got my visa for an accompanying spouse visa but was just denied yesterday after 4 months of waiting. The reason they gave was that hotel contact was not on the hotel booking.

I don't know if he can still apply for dependent visa since I am already in SA and we are not submitting the application together.
Also, will it be okay for him to apply using vfs Abuja office even though mine was through the Port Harcourt office because we think Abuja could be faster since his last application took 4 months? Please I would appreciate any recommendations. Thanks

I used 1 year medical aid (momentum) for mine. It should be same for her too.

Please i know i am dropping multiple messages but i am running out of time as my sisters course is meant to start july the 28th. I just discovered the medical aid cover today that needs to be paid. Is six months medical aid enough or what is the amount of months i need to apply for her?

Submitted two applications for wife and I at VFS Port Harcourt on 22nd January 2025. Last update was 3 days later that applications are undergoing processing at Consulate General of South Africa in Lagos. Nothing else till now.
