Hello,
I understand how you feel about this entire event.
Please note, visa rejections for E-visas can not be appealed.
I said "E-visas" and refunds are very much impossible to recall.
If you wish to re apply , please do so by drafting an appeal letter explaining your situation in one page , re attaching other documents in the supportive documents section and submit.
However, if you wish to proceed directly to apply at the VFS center in Lagos and Abuja, Please be aware that you have to book an appointment on the website: https://www.vfsglobal.com/ , arrange your documents and visit on your appointed date.

If you are still in doubts on the information as regards appeals for evisas, please seek clarification by mailing : hacc@dha.gov.za
Decale:
Got a notification from DHA today

Evisa got rejected. Reasonn being that I submitted fraudulent bank statement

I submitted my personal savings (24/6 to 24/9) and business account (1/6 to 23/9) as well as their reference letters scanned, stamped and signed.

My personal savings have been maintained for years with nothing more than 40% debit of monthly salary. I've used it to get other visas. Added business as an incentive
I've had that personal for 15 years and built it for 18 months. Business account goes up and down but been at 8 figures consistently.

Now I'm lost on if I should appeal (heard it takes some time) or I should proceed to VFS?

Advice needed
Warm Regards

Good morning everyone ! I'm trying to apply for SA visit visa on VFS website .. I have a few questions though .

1 .. Must I book for flight and pay for it ? Or I can use a dummy flight booking ?

2 .. Can I book for hotel on booking.com

3. Is 3m closing balance good for a 6 days stay ?

Thanks guys !
Your no 2. Question.
Ensure your accommodation is done directly from the apartment or hotel and not through third parties.

Third party ( booking.com, hotel.com etc)

In other words, you have to contact the provider directly and book with them.

How do you do this.

Search for apartments or hotels online , pay to them directly.

Attach proof of payment and your booking reservation to your application.


Goodluck

Hello,

Please do you have any idea if I can take my passport from the embassy for emergency situation after I have already submitted application for egypt visa alongside with my passport?

Your kind reply will be appreciated if you have any idea.
Many thanks.
Egypt Embassy does not take passport down , if i am correct.
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 6:52pm On Sep 28, 2024
Africankel:
In verifying a hotel reservation, the visa issuing authority simply checks on the hotel website with the reservation code provided.

The manager saying he wasn't contacted, might be correct. However the booking couldn't be verified online.

Denied bawo? Easy na bros and you guys really gets freaked out here too much.
Zoey1:
I don’t have the time for such because your attitude already messed up the purpose of posting.
After you got denied , did it stop you getting the visa several other times?
Now acting DHA officer over another person’s application.
I can not be talking and saying , "the person" "your friend". It is me and you that is having a conversation, so i would relate it with you.
Y'all take things too seriously out here, no vex you hear.
I dont also remember telling you i got a visa rejection ? Take it easy bros
Let move on.
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 1:27pm On Sep 27, 2024
Zoey1:
1. I told you this was a feedback, so I don’t understand this “fix this up”
2. When I posted it was others to learn .
3. I stated this was to juxtapose what the manager against what DHA said not your “thinking “
4. Lastly, I already said the person moved on ahead of this. Why should I stress?
Just pass the message , no stress brother.
Pay for 3 days and attach it the new application. Let them give you a support document from for your accomodation.
It is called "proof of accommodation"
Others are also picking the messages, and learning.
So, thats fine and ok.
Do have a great day

Zoey1:
Did you read the part that said “the manager said no one reached out”
“And the applicant isn’t a first time “?
I read your texts, I am telling you what the home affairs thinks , which is the basis for your inquiry. The home affairs Adjudicates on visa applications not the hotel manager.
So reading the minds of the VO, they obviously think that document is invalid or false.

So fix this up and do the needful as subject refers.
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 11:32am On Sep 27, 2024
By the way, hotel reservations are also referred as " documents" , support. Depending on the context
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 11:28am On Sep 27, 2024
Zoey1:
The response shown me read and I quote

“There is no feedback regarding verification of the booking you submitted, therefore you do not qualify for visitors visa.”

This has nothing to do with genuinety of documents.
Lol , the home affairs thinks that document is invalid or falsified brother.

Stop stressing. They are just been professional in that context.
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 10:50am On Sep 27, 2024
Zoey1:
I remember this but here the manger insistently said he was never contacted.
Who con dey lie?
You know once you get a refusal based on falsifying documents, it is usually difficult to get that visa a second time.
So what you do in that case is attach payment receipt (invoice) and the booking reservation then let them call again to verify.

You then see the outcome. These guys even accept part payment or a token then when you arrive you pay balance.
There are trying to sell the hospitality industry too by compelling applicants to book and pay for hotels.
It's a kind of collaborative approach aimed at monitoring entrants due to records of overstay.

So, dummys aren't advised much for now, unless an update comes up.

Don't forget also that the Ministry of Home Affairs is under a new management, so expectedly you will encounter alot of these developments.
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 10:33am On Sep 27, 2024
hunee:
TBH, that question is hard to answer right now, cos applications has been hanging for weeks as i learnt.
Home Affairs is currently running on low capacity and scrutiny of applications has been heightened.
This is the update.
So if you have anyone or know anyone visiting SA , advice them to arrange and upload the right documents to avoid refusals.
Stamp anything stamp-able because home affairs will confirm.
The possibility of delays of adjudication is as a result of delayed feedbacks on authentication of applications from providers or third parties.
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 10:31am On Sep 27, 2024
Zoey1:
@hunee @afrikankel
Abeg this matter tie wrapper.
What would you say.
Application was denied because DHA said the hotel didn’t confirm reservation.
Applicant has dropped another application though.
But the hotel manager insisted they never contacted him.
I don’t understand this…
I think we should just discuss it so other people can learn.
I think at this juncture everyone should follow up with their banks and hotels so they are checking mails to ensure they don’t miss anything from DHA.
Are you handling applications for people or this is a feedback?
I said it here severally so it is not new, the home affairs are very tough in recent times on documentations. I posted it here two weeks ago, since I got the exclusive information.
I also advised everyone to tighten all loose ends to avoid rejections.
I said all of this, so let them re apply and do the needful.

OPEN A MUKURU ACCOUNT. I USE IT TO CONVERT RANDS TO NAIRA, AND PAY DIRECTLY TO MY NIGERIAN ACCOUNT
meagainstdem:
Smiles. What I meant was that assuming I want to send naira to someone in nigeria and I have rand in my account in SA, is there a way to send the money directly from my account without passing through the usual way of looking for who needs rand in exchange for naira? Hope it's clear now?
MUKURU IS BIG IN SOUTHERN AFRICA, CHECK FOR THEIR OFFICE AROUND.
IT IS POSSIBLE, BUT IT TAKES 3DAYS TO REFLECT IF YOU ARE PAYING FROM ANOTHER BANK TO MUKURU, BECAUSE THEY USE ONLY ACCESS BANK , THEN WHEN IT DROPS, YOU DO THE COVERSION ON THE APP AND PAY TO YOUR NAIRA ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY.

All the best

Hi guys,
Please I'd like to find out a few things from you guys here. I want to apply for S.A study visa and i intend going there for a undergraduate degree program.

So, for medical insurance, can I use any insurance company in S.A or is there a particular S.A company that the embassy requires applicants to use?

Secondly, for proof of sufficient funds, how much do I need to have in my bank account, at least, for study visa? How do I go about the proof of funds process... Can I still apply with a stamped print out of my bank statement?

Do I need to actually purchase a flight ticket ahead?

I intend to rent an apartment though, do I still need to book a hotel?

I will appreciate your detailed responses on these questions and if there are other things I need to know or information that will help me in my visa application process. Kindly share as well.
