She works and yes she has the money to sponsor me but i prefer paying my self i inserted in introduction letter i will be sponsoring my trip my self .. I will just listen to your guys and next time get more documents .


YOU GUYS ARE THE BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Solatium:


Does this your south African woman works ? if yes does she earn enough to be able to sponsor an invitee? what sort of accommodation does she presents ?...Dude luck aside there are technicality in these things and from my perspective and other people's experience an high commission or embassy will never lie about a situation concerning your application,they will rather not grant the visa and will not state the reason why it is not granted

She didnt put me in any trouble am 100% there is a way you can check if SA national identity number and passport numbers are valid she didnt even know what to do until i told her i have been to Germany before and same way my friend there wrote the Invitation same way i told her to but hmmmmm .. Even back then the money i had wasnt even close to what i have now .

Sometimes its just luck maybe my luck no shine lol

Solatium:

If you are cork sure of documents from your own side,the one provided by your friend must have put you in trouble then.....You still have a chance,reapply but on this occasion make a paid hotel reservations with a reservation code coming directly from the hotel..Best of luck

Yes thats the ( statement of account ) worth more than 2M

Reprobate:


bro, dont see no bank statement there. did u really not include that?

Maybe i shouldnt have apply with an Invitation kindly ready someone apply without an invitation and was given 3 months . If the embassy were as smart as they say why didnt they verify the documents than just looking at it they would have called her to confirm because of ordinary visitors visa i should bring all documents documents OMG for real for South Africa Boss staggerlee e be like them plan me i no even understand

staggerlee:


So she is an SA citizen? That's probably why u were denied, the embassy will wonder how did u guys know each other unless maybe she is a nigerian decent or she has shown she visits Nigeria regularly. Yes her financial standing matters a lot, if not bank statement things like her work I.D, a letter from her office will go a long way cos the embasy does not want an "oloshi" to bring anyone into the country. If she is a university student, that's also cool. Mehn I need to start a visa consultancy biz asap

Thanks bro am done am going enjoy my self for some time and by next month i might visit Dubai am going for pleasure so its no big deal and if you want to change rands i prefer you go to Airport does mallas there change it cheap . Self trip and GOD bless you blessing and success come your way

You submitted in Abuja and picked it up in lagos ? And please can you tell me what documents you submitted ?

friendly101:


I submitted on the 10th and got a mail on the 19th for pickup............I picked it up from vfs on Monday 22nd was given 3months.

Its a she and the only documents i got from her was her passport, national ID card and utility bill for this month thats all do she need to send her statement of account too ? Because for what i know am the one paying for my trip even the hotel. How is that ?

staggerlee:


So you wanted to come via an invitation? Did your host put in supporting documents, like his current immigration status in SA, his bank statements in SA, his lease aggrement, utility bills etc?

they didnt specify they just said documents lack credibility ..Thats why am even angry at least they would have specify on one or more documents same documents i used to apply for Germany in 2015 and also India thats same documents i used now whats different is the statement of account the figures are different

Solatium:

which one of the documents was said to have lack credibility ?

Seriously i went though some stress like my statement of amount i had to see the manager imagine that , invitation letter i had to teach my friend what to write some stressful stuffs thou and dont worry you dont have to think other wise all the documents are real which i can bet on i have been to Germany and India before just wanted to visit SA base on what people are saying .

Solatium:


went through stressful process to procure documents ? why do you have to stress yourself if those documents are yours ? they should be at your disposal

Trust me i will use the money well to have fun since its all i can think of for now

staggerlee:


Yea I feel you, its their loss and Nigeria's gain. Use the money you would hv used to buy rand at 26 naira to a rand and spend it in naija.

Yes i wanted to visit SA just for pleasure i have no reason to go there and do anything bad or start a life i have a life here in Nigeria its just painful someone my standard was denied common SA visa i wish they can do their verification by visiting applicants house or place of work nah once them for give me visa beg me to travel

staggerlee:


If you were denied and you genuinely wanted to just visit, then its SA's loss

Am not really stressed about the denier but am angry i went through some stressful process to get all the documents now it feels like my time is wasted . But its all cool ..

DieVluit:


Why must you stress about it? South Africa denied you a visa. Move on.

I was denied a South Africa visitors visa today the reason was DOCUMENTS LACK CREDIBILITY . i was kind angry because all my documents was real , statement of account has good history and amount . Am going there to visit a friend and also rest my head .

Does any one know what i can do or have any ideal about this issue your contribution would be highly appreciated .

Thanks Guys

Please am still waiting for an answer please

Please i want to know how much is the total fee when applying for a Visitors VISA ? thank you guys you are the best .

yes we are coming with a Visitors VISA ,, means we cant stay for long right ? What do you think is best for us to do ?? Please

staggerlee:

Depends on area but nothing less than R5000 per month and you need a resident permit to rent a house, hope you are not coming with a visitors visa, because if you are you can't stay more than 30 days

Yes we are planning our travel to SA to visit a long time family friend but we will like to stay alone please any ideal ?

staggerlee:


Are you planning to come and live in SA?
