I have d application form for visa to temporarily sojourn in d republic tagged DHA-1738 consisting of 20 pages. Is this d study visa form and are all d 20 pages to be submitted? Item 6 of d form has maintenance /Deportation section. Under it are available funds and valid return or onward ticket no section. Do i really need to fill this section? I visited my Bank yesterday (GTB) and I was told to go make whatever payment with my ATM card. How real is this?

Compliment of the season brother, that section 6 I just wrote 800k naira equivalent to rand. Payment for what? You don't need to go any bank.just write amount that available in rands equivalent.

No problem, same here too. May God bless our hustle. But yet to get over d costly mistake I made about filling my visa application at d wrong place. My prayer is that by the time I re-apply in january it will meet up with my early february resumption. By the way,someone was even suggesting I go to Abuja bcs it's easy up there than lagos but takes longer(up to 6 wks). My fear in that is will it come out b4 resumption. I'm just confused!

stevetop:
People, must I have paid my school tuition fees before applying for study permit? Who can tell me about Bloemfontein- will be studying for a PhD at University of the Freestate.

hello travellanders,
just finish my Nysc,but I would love to relocate to south Africa due to the condition of our economy. please I need an assistance on how to file my application from the scratch gurella007@yahoo.com

@ femiaction, u absolutely got me wrong. I was throwing my mind open to everyone,not u in any way. That is why I don't like commenting on social media like this. About 2 or 3 of us posted in a row and u happened to be d only one responding to us. It's just like when a teacher is asking question in d class and only one student keeps answering. If d teacher asks why it's only a student answering his question, would it get d student angry? Rather to me, it's just a way of challenging other students to live up. That's all. So I don't think I deserve to be hammered that deep by u, neither do I want this dragged any further and ultimately derail d thread. Before I know it now, someone will come and bash me for accusing all of not responding to questions except u. That's humans we are!

Compliments of the season fellow nairalanders, a cousin of mine is going to South Africa very soon for tourism and vacation leave. He wanted to use an agent to lodge his application but I told him he shouldn't waste his money on the so call agent, that I have a forum that I can consult to assist. I know with this forum we will be surely guided properly.
So house, what are the necessary documents to file in and where is the application centre? The one I know is at billings way close to Oregun but I don't know if they have move from there. Please I need enlightenment.

Is Femiaction d only person on this forum? Why is he d only one responding to questions. Just as omidoyinJoshua pointed out, some schools like UCT has direct link wit saqa which they use in evaluating documents before admitting students. Therefore,they don't request for saqa as part of supporting docs for offering admission. Has anybody had this experience of not submitting saqa to d embassy and granted visa? Let d person share wit us pls.

omidoyinjoshua:


thanks @femiaction, he's even willing and ready to do SAQA but the fear is as regards his fate on the outcome of his study permit application he made without SAQA, what's your view bro

omidoyinjoshua:
Hello House, a friend of mine was at the Home Affairs office to apply for study permit, he was cleared on Tuesday and was told to make payment on Wednesday and he submitted on Thursday without SAQA, (because his school never requested for SAQA in the first place) he's now quite afraid if his application won't be denied because of this. Please what's the house's view

naruto02:
Hello house, very soon I'd like to travel to sa for school (flying school to be precise). I read most of the requirements for the visa stuff but what I want to clarify is that the official bank statement, is it going to be your sponsors bank account or your sponsor has to transfer the money into your bank account. Secondly, are going to book a flight before or after the visa is been granted? Finally how long does it take to grant your visa application

segzy201:
Pls house, is SAQA part of documents needed for study study visa application in embassy

Hello house. I'm not just a happy man tonight. I was at vsf office in lekki this monday to apply for my PhD study visa only to receive my passport 2day wit my application denied. Reason: I should apply for a study visa, which is done at d SA embassy. All along, nobody ever told me that I was in a wrong place(vsf). When I called one of their staff showing my displeasure on why he didn't tell me moreso he was d one that screened my documents, he said most times SA embassy do direct applicants to them. What I'm hearing now is that d embassy will go on d year's break 2moro friday 18 till january and I'm supposed to resume school by 1st or 2nd week in february. Can someone take his/her time to advise me candidly here please. As I'm typing this, I'm having a serious emotional breakdown. Where do I start from? Any hope for me? Upon all the money I sank in lagos-transport, lodging etc. Honestly, this is not d best of time for me.

Good day house,

Please I would like to know what it will take an engineering graduate to obtain Critical Skills work permit in SA.I was hinted by a few friends in SA that engineers are highly sought for in SA, don't know how true.

My Bachelors degree is in Electrical Engineering and I have about 2 years work experience.

Thanks.

Hi House. Please i Need help from anyone who has had this experience. I was at the SA embassy today to do document check towards submission for critical skills Visa and was told that i also have to include flight reservation and proof of accomodation. This two are not required for critical skills visa and i was surprised that they brought them up. I wish to know if any of the guys (@femiaction, @pyr8te) that have recently gotten critical skills Visa had this documents included. I will be most grateful for any helpful response.
