Thanks @femiaction but pls what professional body recognised by SAQA can I register with as a microbiologist and how can I register?
And I'm i going to pay one price for both my transcript and BSc certificate? And for wace just certificate right? I don't need to get the break down of the wace result?
And for the CTC is it just going to be a stamp on each copy? And where is high court in Lagos..and how fast will I be attended to at the high Court?
And can by Bf in SA pay for SAQA and with professional body from south Africa with his card?

Bumdeeva:
Hello everyone,
It's my first time posting here and I couldn't find much about the critical skills visa on here.

Pls I need someone to gide me step by step on the SAQA and professional body registration thing, how do I go about it?
I'm a microbiology graduate. what professional body can I register with and how do I go about the registration?

And for SAQA do I need to include my primary and senior school leaving certificate, with my transcript and university certificate for submission? And do I send all together or separately? And will they all be scanned copies?

What is the fastest way for submission as I'm in Lagos now..online or by courier?..and if by courier, who do I address it to?
Thanks

Happy Sunday great men in the house, thanks for the help so far. i work at the moment but I dont plan to submit a letter of introduction from my employer as it might delay my application- do I still need to state where I work on my application for a study visa since I am planning to use a sponsor (letter and statement of acc) Also is it imperative to put a copy of my marriage certificate? If yes, do I need to also get it notarised? Kindly help!

stevetop:
Thanks for the all the responses. Is it adviceable that I do my medicals at a private hospital or govt hospital? I also dont have an idea of the things to include in the letter of introduction to the embassy. Thanks for the help- getting free help these days is almost a mirage. Cheers!

Keneking:
What about flight reservation and marriage certificate?

stevetop:
Happy new yr. I have been seeing for BI-1738 for Study visa and it has just 13pages. Am I looking for the wrong form? I am planning to apply for study permit without SAQA- due to the possibility of getting the certificate late- what is the possibility of being granted? I am to be in Bloem for my PhD before March.

@Femiactio, thanks.Taken.
@Keneking,i'v done my own momentum since august.this one is for dependants(my wife and kids)who are due to join me soon. The online payment I was talking about is that there is a website under the payment options of UCT for online payment.when I followed up d site,it took me to d point of entering the amount and card details.My thought is dat if one supplies this details,d amount would be deducted and d payment subsequently made. For the momentum,i will attempt d card payment when I come back from d Embassy in january. The school fees.....that is my headache now. I will make enquiries about d form A and any other option in Lagos banks next week.Infact, initially I thought Stanbic bank is a subsidiary of Standard bank in SA and so they will have a free flow transaction without hassles. I was wrong! I opened domiciliary account with them in 2013 in order to pay the application fee. To my surprise, I had to pay a charge of 17K just for R600. Infact, I'm tired jare!!!

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.
@Femiaction, Compliments of the season to you too bro. How is the family? Thanks for that,that is clear now.i av 2 payments to make:momentum health plan and school fees.both av option of online card payment. Also, what about d valid return or onward ticket number section?what am I going to fill there bcs I learnt flight itinerary should be booked a day b4 submission of d visa form.Finally, I'm I submitting d relevant pages of d form alone(pages 1-7) or d entire 20 pages? Sorry for the questions,i learnt those people at d embassy are crazy indeed!

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?

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.

gungab:
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

meagainstdem:
@ 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.

meagainstdem:
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.

segzy201:
