And he is still walking freely under your watch.

Everything you see around you is made by somebody and if is so ask yourself who made me.

Until someone tell me the name of the scientist that made man or designed the reproductive system of human beings and animals I will forever believe there is God.

The thing that made man is much more powerful than man and does not obey the law of physics or chemistry and that thing is called God.

The most intelligent and power thing in the universe does not use that substance called brain.

The agent might have used fake documents at a point for her. Many people are victims of this.

Kingslykizy:
He said he will get the south Africa visa at the port of entering, how is that possible and he is with Nigeria passport, is that really possible

South Africa does not issue visa at the border.
What will be his immigration status in Mozambique to apply for a SA visa?

Only SADC passport holders and some visa free countries can enter SA through land without a visa.
Nigerian passport holders are required to apply for a visa in advance at any South African embassy where the applicant has a temporary or permanent resident before proceeding to the republic. Nigerians does not qualify for visa on arrival at the port of entry in their airport.

He can also use the same documents he used for Tanzania visa to apply for SA visa

Kingslykizy:
A friend of mine have a Tanzania visa and is planning of crossing from there to Mozambique and to his final destination South Africa please how is that possible, I need urgent advice to give him thanks friends

Is he planning to get a SA visa from Mozambique or he has any SADC nations' passport to enter SA without a visa? Which I think is difficult to get.

Or he is planning to jump the fence into the country from Mozambique without a visa. If later is his plan he should hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

You can.
Your query might be valuable to others if you post it here.

Hello Fellas and Senior colleagues please I am a PhD student here and got a grant by the South African academy of Science to attend a conference in south Africa,fully funded from the third week of April, I am aware that i would be needing a short term Visa. Please how much is the visa fee and i would also appreciate any useful information as this is my first time. Thanks

Apply for a visitor's visa is about N34,000 including vfs service fee.
You are running out of time

The image you attached is a certificate course which amount to less than 30% of study permit. Including photography course, video shooting etc as i mentioned earlier.

Degree courses >6 months such as Bsc Bsc(hons) MSc PhD constitute almost all of the acclaimed study visas (<70%), and non is work prohibited. The VO decides based on this.

You said almost all which gives a false impression or have you seen a BSC, MSc, or PhD study permit with work Prohibition?

I gave you the proof you required now you want proof for a PHD course.

Did you check the duration of the course?
Did you check the link I provided for you? Is the link for study permit with certificate holders? I have posted the link again for you to check.

In your analogy photography and other media courses are less important. Hence, they put conditions. For your information no consular officer will issue a study permit for a course and institution that does not meet SA National qualifications framework and immigration act requirements.

Visa officer or immigration officer at the port of entry has the right to put any condition or restriction or even cancel a visa.
Call SA embassy to verify for yourself.

I don't want to continue with this debate.

People are able to bring their families to SA because they do things on the side like working or conducting business without authorization or business permit. The govt is aware and doesn't care. My advice to the lady is based on their immigration status in the country and not their financial status.

Hope you have understood my opinion.
Thank you.

Thecassanova:
The analogy you gave to the lady was assuming her husband can't afford the expenses. You don't even know if he's a recipient of R120k per annum NRF bursary. Or a PhD student with fundings & also get enough money working part-time.

Schooling in SA is different from Nigeria. Enough do afford to bring their family to SA while studying its no big deal.

I never told her it is impossible. But difficult if the husband's permit is work restricted. In fact, there is a provision in the study permit application form for spouse to apply for accompany visa immediately.
I gave her my advice based on the information she provided.

She has visited the husband before on a visitors visa with the help of this forum. Now she wants to immigrate permanently as a Dependant (accompanying spouse) to meet her husband who is on a study permit that expires in December.

1. The husband is yet to successfully change his status to a work permit that allows him to work fully.
2, It is also proper for her to wait or go with a critical skill work permit that allows her to work full time if she qualifies for it. It's not mandatory to have a degree to qualify.

I have seen people with different immigration issues ranging from changing of status to registering their children in school due to the parents immigration status.

SA visitors visa is easy to get because the holder cannot change status inside South Africa. Many people are trapped because they refused to return back when their visa expired. They are unable to return back for proper permit as they will be given a ban at the airport. They are forced to buy fake visa stickers to avoid the Police and to get few things done which is illegal.

Let the poster post more information about the husband, then people will be able to advice her better.

Thecassanova:
You're very sure like you approved the visa.

Stop spreading fake news on public forum by saying all study permit comes with a work prohibited clause. Most study permits comprises of Bsc Bsc(hons), Msc, PhD and non is work prohibited as they are TRV with atleast a year program.

About sponsor, this is not Uk, Canada or Australia where the VO will check relationship on who is sponsoring you. SA study permit can be sponsored by friends, Uncle, etc without showing how related the person is to you or why they wanna spend hard cash on you.

I quoted you because of this fake lies about study permit

Show Us prove that most Study visa are not allowed to work. Don't misguide people.

I never said all study permit comes with work restriction. It's up to the visa officer to decide. It could be on any study permit.

The holder of this study permit cannot write to SA embassy that he works part time, the permit might be cancelled.

If you are not yet convinced email or call South African embassy for clarification.

If you want to find out how to remove work restriction from a study permit inside SA read:

I have met a lot of students with this issue. I know what I am writing about.

HelpingHands100:
I don't know what was obtainable before now, but I have secured 3 South African visas, 2 for short visits and 1 study permit. On the two short term visas were written, work is prohibited. But for the study permit, no such condition attached.
Can I work? Yes absolutely, but only for a limited number of hours as it will be determined by my university.

You are on point. When there is such condition on the permit sponsoring a dependant becomes an issue as source of income will be difficult to prove.

Thecassanova:
It's not about what you think it's better.

Allot of Nigerians with study visa have wives here with accompany spousal visa. It's not necessarily they have a fat ending statement of account or wait till study finish. All they want to see is good cash in flows. A friend got his wife the visa with less than R3k balance on his Absa statement.

Visas are not issued based on bank balance alone but the source of income and the overall situation of the applicant.
I am very sure in her husband's study permit there is a clause that states "work is prohibited". So, what will be his source of income if he sends his bank statement.
You think the visa officer will not care about it.

My point is, the husband cannot act as sponsor if he has a study permit with work restriction on it. Except his source of income is outside SA or he is allowed to work in SA.
Are you saying the poster can apply for accompanying visa as a dependant of a work restricted study permit holder. My friend, it's not a visitors visa she is applying for.

I have added a link for you to read

I remembered one military administrator (Anthony Ibe Onyearugbulem) that wanted to rubbish Oba Erediawa the father of this present Oba by arresting him and taking him to court. His family died and he died too within a short period of time. Witches and wizard exist in the bible, in the English dictionary and in Africa in particular.

Thecassanova:
Most SA study permit are for Bsc, honours, Masters & PhD students. Non is work prohibited.

Do your research well. Almost all comes with a condition or clause not to work.
If there is no condition on the permit the holder is allowed to work part time 20 hours per week.

Thecassanova:
Change of condition from Study permit to what or change of condition to work with study permit?

What I mean is change of condition not change of status.
Change of condition that states "work is prohibited" to allow work for practical purposes and experience.

Thecassanova:
Please get your fact right, he's allowed to work part-time with nothing more than 80hrs per months for postgraduate & 40hrs undergraduate.

You get your facts right. Most SA study permit comes with a condition that states "work is prohibited" Unless the applicant apply for change of condition from home affairs inside SA.

Shoyomi:
Dear Nairalanders,

First of all, i want to appreciate this platform for being so informative and educative, it really helped me while i was applying for a South African Visa for the first time and was granted the visa 20 days after the application (even though i have never traveled out of the country before, i.e my passport was clean and clear..). Anyway, i have come to seek your help again. Will be joining my husband in South Africa by July, 2018, though he's on Student Visa which will expire by 31st Dec. 2018, my question is this, what are the required documents needed in processing an Accompanying Spouse Visa?, How long does it take to process the said visa? Will i be allowed to work over there?

Thanking you in anticipation of your quick response.

Study permit holders in South Africa are not allowed to work. What he does on the side for money is considered illegitimate by law. If both of you can prove you have sufficient money to take care of your living expenses in SA without working illegally then the visa will be approved.

My advice:
Wait for him to complete his study in December, he can apply for a work or critical skill permit. If he has offer of employment while applying he can add you as accompanying spouse immediately.

Or you can apply for critical skill permit separately in Nigeria if you qualify.

eluquenson:
Let me ask few questions which may give likely give the truth about their decision.
Did you submitted a fake bank statement?
Did you withdraw huge cash after you printed the statement?
Lastly, did you do cash lodgement prior to printing of your statement.

Their reason might be one of these aforementioned, but let's hear from you first.

What he does for a living should also reflect in his bank statement.
All jobs have salary range.

Honest advice for hustling jobs is Germany or Austria. Unfortunately it is difficult to get their work permit from Nigeria.

@Manager007 please, I sent you a pm.

Since there is no traffic light whichever car comes first to the intersection between A and C has right of way,

I enjoyed some of those cartoons with my black and white TV covered with locuzade nylon

prof1999:
PLEASE ANY RESPONSE ,,,, I BEG OOOOOOO

Your statement must cover your first year fees including living expenses. Do the calculation.

Someone I know got a study permit with about 500k balance in the account.

Why will a responsible lady still be out that time of the day. She should be sued for character deformation. Olosho with no destination carrying pepper spray everywhere she goes.
