Were they first timers or frequent travelers?

gr8femfred:
It seems TLS are faster for people they are rejecting... I have two people who got respond a week after and was denied.. could it be that once you get faster response the person did not get visa ?

spain . i laugh
God will help you sha,

They know what they are doing na.

Wuranla:
You are right about the letter, they will win the case actually, afterall everyone signed the letter

Everyone will be operating like one man mopo ooo. lol
i say make we write petition of inquiry to the embassy. Una dey fear visa ref. ,usal

It will even scare them to approve your visa in time.

SA is very notorious for delaying visas.

No be today.
That is why they always compel candidate to sign that letter should incase these delays occurs.

9rad:
I just got this notification below from Vfs … does it mean my visa was granted.

Your visa application reference number: *** has been received at the South Africa visa Application center in Lagos from the south Africa consulate Lagos and is ready for collection.

Did you submit your passport alongside?

9rad:
I am in

We have to be a group of 5. So we can send the letter by Monday.

missexiest:
Good day,earliest appointment date available in Abuja is on the 29th of April and I was planning to travel before then.Does anyone know if and how this prime time appointment works ?I clicked on it but there was no other link to click on to book for it.

I am not sure if this works. But let others air their views so you can make a decision.

I asked that we write the embassy through a petition of inquiry. Only one person has turned out. Ok

When we are 5 in a group, we will file a petition of inquiry to the consulate. I hope you are in lagos?

gateleo:
why not...I'm ready to sign petition against them..

I need my passport urgently, they can keep their Visa..I need to travel. Please how do I contact them to request for my passport

making 2. we need 3 more persons

the delays are technical. If you want a faster response, let us all agree to write letter of inquiry or petitions on delayed applications.

Like i have said several times, SA is very notorious for so many things , one of which is delaying visa feedbacks.

Vfs are the ones that truly understands this visa thing. how do you fill form first then later book an appointment?
Alot of people have had to cancel their forms when they couldnt get a date after its completion.

The booking of appointment has to come first , then filling of forms.

Betterstill, they should have a site you can check to know the most recent available dates just like canada, uk and the rest does theirs.


Now i see why Uk had to withdraw their stuff from Tls and handed it over to Vfs. They know better.



Anyone has idea of recent appointment date for ABUJA?

Both first timers and frequent travelers. Please advise, anyone?

As of last year, some previous yellow cards got expired abruptly and could not be validated. Based on this understanding, i have advised a new one to be on a safer side. It is a token amount

Emmamay10:
Thank you for your reply. It's for SA. I used the current yellow card for Visa application in 2023. The yellow card serial number begins with C.

Are you implying that I get a new yellow card entirely. Thank you.

If it is for SA, please get a new one.

Emmamay10:
@ hunee, good morning. Please kindly advise. I did my yellow card registration in 2023, and it was signed/certified then. I will be using the yellow card to travel in two weeks time.
Do I need to recertified the yellow card again? Thank you.

Jolene474:
I arrived SA last week for my holiday, I used South African Airways, we took off at about 10:07PM and landed about 3:34AM. The immigration guys at night are very weird, they seem to beg Nigerians money, we should report to their immigration or boycut their airline.
Some Nigerians just wear gold and diamond and the immigration officer was saying his tired of stamping passport that his been here since morning and it’s 4AM that we should wait till 7AM when the next shift of immigration officers… I don’t know because they feel Nigerians have money or they saw some boys dressing like Lil Baby.
But except that experience it has been a beautiful week here in Johannesburg, excellent weather and great city, flying to Cape Town next before heading back to Lagos.

All the best..

Hahaha. This feedback is hilarious.

Enjoy jare

Does anyone have a clue to get an earlier Polish work appointment?

Please advise.

Those of you always fond of coming here "boldly" to tell us , your husband absconded when he got to france and enter poland on a tourist visa. These kind of stories are compelling and causes problems for others.

There is nothing we want to advise you about , when you are in such a situation because you already made up your mind , you just want to hear again from us here.

I ask that issues concerning migration are carefully discussed about on this platform because it is a public platform and everything is being monitored.

Stop telling these kind of stories to cause issues for other genuine travelers. Goodmorning.

Please what time and date is the next appointment for work visa slot.

Please revert.


Has anyone also been able to get an appointment recently for a work visa?


Please revert.

Has anyone received an update?

very weird but then again...

Ozeggy:
Simply use a logistics company. It's weird asking strangers to carry food items for you.

I always like to show evidence. Did you watch that instagram video? That is the reality right now

Ayekotoo:
Chai! Na wa o. It seems Italy and Portugal are the real done deals now when it comes to issuance of Visas. Your take?

I can not defend any country right now because alot of them are tighten up.

Ayekotoo:
Thank you for this revelation. I have appointment at the Spanish consulate in March for legalisation of documents but my mind don comot for there due to the high rejection rate.

A word they say is enough for the wise. They will eat your 69800 for legalization and visa fees. You had better not bother wasting time.

I will attach a video link here too. You can check it later to see that immigration laws are actually heightened now.

Ifunanya25:
Good Evening, i want to apply for a france visa although i just got a UK 6 months visa and now i want to apply for a france visa but i have some concerns. I applied for portugal ending last year and got denied “conditions of travel unreliable “and now i want to go through france and my husband will be my sponsor ( he is based in portugal)

I want to know if the france visa official will find it weird that my husband in portugal is sponsoring me to go to france for tourism, will they not think “why not go to portugal”

I intend on going to the UK then from UK to france. I just want to know if its a good idea for him to sponsor me.

Dear Ifunaya,

Goodmorning

First, your application with France is not same as Portugal.

While you are applying to France , do not state that you have anything to do with Portugal in the past. Now that you have a UK visa, it can give you an edge.

I would advise you apply for the France tourist visa solely for vacation without Stating you will go from there to Portugal or from the UK.. Do not complicate your application considering your previous rejection.

Somethings are better left unsaid.

Don't attach any links to your husband in your application, do not send them a signal you will not return.
Ensure your monies is in your account sufficient to cover your trip. Do not state that your husband is in Portugal. I don't know what you stated before in the former application, but be consistent with your data provided.

I'd be best to explain in clear terms if opposite is the case with a cover letter .

Please read carefully these informations.


Begin by filling out the forms to register as a tourist, then book your appointment at the TLS for submission of your application.

All the best.

majorSLEEK:
Date of submission at the VFS Office - 23rd January

Date of receipt of Passport with approved Visa - 11th February.

Abodkay:

Abodkay:
Aameeen.
@hunee, hope you are not joking.

No jokes, Spain is actually one of the toughest countries in Europe to settle. If them dey talk ham here una no go believe, na who go come know wetin eye see.

Ayekotoo:
Laughing out loud at the bolded. They must be joking. No wonder Nigerians found the country difficult to migrate to except through the Mediterranean (illegal).

The visa too now. The rejection rates is outrageous.

You can visit the embassy, and hear words on the street.

Latest update now is that in a short time, you will start receiving mails.it is confirmed.

juddy234:
Sorry I meant to say, leave letter from work place

noted.

Zooboy:
So no work in Spain
Omor
Okay I can chat me here abeg o9123916901
I need ur ideas on something really disturbing me

Don't mix things up. I had thought you have a valid work permit? Apply to the embassy. You can go there to gather information, you find comms outside the gate.
If you have a work permit, there isn't any need for you to job search on arrival.

That is why it is called , "work permit " then work visa.


I am sorry, I can't chat you. Please maintain comms here.

Zooboy:
Guy my sponsor paid 6000€ in full
So it's about finance
Tho na 60% till visa comes out
Pls drop ur whatsap so I can ask some questions as I'm worried I only have olevel , no bsc degree
Tho I'm good with python programs

Interesting. For the records, numbers are not to be shared here. I no want make them ban me. also my email isn't working. So you can not mail me on here.
Please inquire here for general response.
Inbetween, 6k euro is alot monies.

I want to know more about the processes you take to get a Spanish Work Permit Abroad.

Please share more insights. Did you apply online?

Spain is not one of those countries you can get jobs easily for those who know what i am saying.

Thanks

Please continue to monitor the emails. Updating is coming.

And if you applied too, don't stay mute and come to tell us silent reader this and that later o.
