This is a public platform , you are allowed to say your mind and rant as much as you like ! I understand how you feel!
But in all you just need to calm down and get the docs right I am sure you will get the approval you seek
SA high commission no try at all
I have been through hell and back from their hand and if not because I have someone important from me there! I would never ever waste my 10cent on the the country visa again
Because this people aren't as professional as the are thought to be!
If you have something important to do there,I suggest you reapply.It can be due to human error like it happened to me but if not just do away with the country they are not worth it !

Hahaha, another african that can't properly read a text.
I am not from the shithole of Nigeria or Africa. How did you deduce that .
I am from the European Union if you ever heard about that.
Paris, Manchester, Hamburg? I can go there every weekend, Europe is already boring for me. Paris i have visited more than 5 times. Actually i can board a plane from my european country to Germany, France or UK not even having to do a passport control, because we are in the Schengen space. So i can do it whenever i want, and flights are sooo cheap, starting from 20 dollars. I can fly across Europe with 30-40 dollars, cheaper than in Africa haha, when we have much bigger wages. That is why Europe is sooo boring for me now, after so many visits, that is why i thought, maybe give a chance to african countries, maybe there is something interesting there, despite dirt, mess and uncivilised people.. BIG mistake!!

I have been to more interesting cities like: New York, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Toronto, Montreal, Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore, Sydney, Melbourne, Rio de Janeiro etc...places that an african like you will most probably never set foot in this life.
And yes. DHA are a bunch of corrupt retards.
South Africa is another shithole, criminality like nowhere in the world, now they have power outages everyday, a failed country with one of the most inefficient, incompetent and corrupt governments in the world.
Actually i am not mad at all, it is a good thing that they did not give me the stupid eVisa, because god knows what could happen in that infractionality shithole. Tourists get robbed or even killed frequently. IT is funny that such a shithole of a country, unable to solve its own huge deep problems, is so "Scared" that a visitor like me may have a fake bank statement haha...but that is how retarded people function.
No problem, my mistake for wanting to visit your country. Never again.
Fortunately i didn;t lose the flight tickets i bought and will instead visit Namibia, a country that is 100 times safer, civilised than SA. And i do not need the stupid visa, i can get it on arrival for Namibia.
But thank you anyway, your post was sooo funny, it made my day! smiley
And do not worry, there is no need for me to "put down" anything in SA, the SA government does an excellent job driving this country downhill. So there is no need for me to waste my time with it.
And if local people in SA are like you, one more reason to not come there.
Have a good day in that failed country! (if that is possible ) smiley

Hi Everyone
Just wanted to say that I finally got my study visa and I am currently in Cape Town.
The whole process was just a miracle cos I applied 9th November 2023 and got a rejection on the 29th of Jan 2024, I reapplied immediately on the 6th of February and after 5 days, I was called to submit my passport for visa.

Thanks to everyone that keep responding to questions here, May God bless you all.

P.S: someone asked here if they require a return ticket for study visa applicants, I had a one way ticket and no one asked me for my return ticket, all they were asked me for was my yellow fever card and admission letter.

Only for them to text me saying they attempted to deliver but my own premises was closed what happened to them calling
Like WTF with the lie
If they cannot deliver today shouldn’t they have said so ??
I mean why lie
Now because of their stupidity there prolonging things for like seriously
Naturally I hate DHL and I don’t use them. They have done this to me several times
They should just pray nothing happens to my parcel else they are doomed

Better thank God for evisa,after the Covid 19 SA visa became more difficult to obtain
I keep submitting. And there was nothing wrong with this documents
I made sure I had a steady amount of same salary going into my account every months
. But those sticker visa officer are not just ready to give a first timer visa
Until they started this evisa . I submitted the same document and in less than 10days got my visa.

Despite my travel history ooo
hunee:
Everyone need have a portfolio for themselves. Those who claim to always get visas by their own thoughts, do not know some people have applied 7/8 times before they got it. I have never been rejected a south african visa, i applied 4 times, and i was issued all. Prior to this time,i have built a solid travel portfolio which is one of the things visas officers always like to see. No one wants to issue a visa or give a job to new comer, its just normal logic. Atleast, visit cotonou, go to ghana, visit all these neighbouring countries, have that exposure and the experience which also helps you to shape and draft a convincing letter of intent or introduction letter.
Exposure, experience,travel profile is key.
If you are a business person, register your business with cac, get your house in order. Travel is documentation.
I wish everyone luck.

Africankel:
Standard practice was to issue 3 months validity visa. In recent times, they reduced to 8 weeks for whatever reason. They never extend it to 6 months, no matter how many visas you've gotten. Unless you apply for long stay.

If they extended visa validity by the number of visas you've received or the number of times you've visited, I should be entitled to a 5 or more years visa by now.

Travel / Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Graceness777(f): 9:52pm On Dec 24, 2023
The truth is some visa officer are just something else
Especially South Africa visa officer they do as they want
It’s a sticker visa it’s only normal they issue 3month then six month
But no they believe and no the power is in their hands hence the issue whatever they like
To anyone struggling to get one country visa or the other
Don’t give up no matter how hard
And believe one day you shall have victory
I have applied for the sticker visa
7times
But because I am a first timer they kept denying me over plans over again
Until this year when I got my first evisa
And then this sticker one
So please donot give up
Especially when God has not given ip on you!.
Just to motivate someone
hunee:
True. I requested 3 month and i showed evidences for the need , because i was a frequent traveler and it was granted on evisa dha portal
However, if you do not fall into that category, dont bother requeesting, unless you are lucky, a rejection is likely.
Travel / Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Graceness777(f): 7:24am On Dec 24, 2023
Yeah would have done that but there is no specific location written on the platform of where to pick up …all customer care are on break and not picking up
….just like @hunee said I would just have to be patient and wait for the estimated delivery date which is on Thursday. Although it means I have to reschedule my ticket again
Thank you so much

Sojeezy247:
You can pick up yourself,but you need to reach out to the customer care number to tell you where their drop off location or sorting location is or go to the site and change delivery address to DHL center close to you
Travel / Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Graceness777(f): 3:46pm On Dec 23, 2023
DHL do me something oo
I am supposed to travel this December for the festive period but my passport is still with DHL
And in the tracking system it says ‘processed at Lagos ‘ and the estimated delivery date is Thursday which is too far already
I don’t know if there is anyway I can pick up myself
Plus their customer care are not picking any calls 😒😒

I was surprised when I got the message from DHL Any one knows how long it will take before getting It
Africankel:


It will be delivered by DHL, not UPS. They stopped using UPS in November, so anyone who paid for courier before then, will have their passport delivered by DHL.

At least this was what happened in my case.
