Good morning everyone. I am a permanent resident with a south african ID and recently got married last month.my wife applied for a relative permit to join me here since 28th july.the tracking system says received at the abuja high commission and under assessment since then.she didn't receive any emails or sms after submission.she called the customer care 3 days after submission and she was told they sent an sms on their system but it didnt deliver.Pls is there anyone that submitted a long term visa/permit at abuja around the same time and has received it or still waiting for it?I am just trying to have an idea of the processing/waiting time for long term visas at abuja.thank you

Good day everyone.pls can anyone help me with the abuja high commission phone number.the ones on the vfs website aint going through.

Hello everyone.please when does south african embassy lagos close for the festive period.I want to submit a study permit on the 13/14th dec.hope its nt too late.thanks

Good day everyone.I got my south african visa today at abuja after 9 working days.I was denied on the 3rd of aprill in lag and reapplied in abuja on the 9th.I was almost confused by people who said I should wait for 6 months before reapplying.thanks to my brother opsy4real for his advice.pls applicants shld try to go and apply in abuja.lagos is now a business centre.

Sorry I meant 420k and not 42k

Good morning collins and justwise.how are u guys and all nairalanders.can u imagine I wa denied yesterday because of my yellow card which I got from the port health authority at the airport.I called them yest morning and a lady told me to go and get a new yellow card after I gave her my passport no to check the status of my application.but when I later called again,another lady picked it and said my passpot has been returned back to vfs.imagine that they shld ve just called me if they were not clear about the card earlier rather than denying me the last day as the letter read 3rd of april.
Now I want to reapply next week again but I am a medical doctor and I just finished a one year internship on the 31st of jan and waiting to go for my nysc in july.I want to apply to go in june.please can I include that I just finished internship and show them all my pay slipsduring the internship.I still have abt 42k in my account and the cash was from the salary during the internship.that was how I did the first application in addition to my uncle's documents I attached.I want to attach only my documents this time around.can they accept the fact that I just finished a programme in jan and waiting for another in july which I told them in the first application.My mind tells me they just wanted to deny me cos the yellow card was from the airport.I don't want to use any agent and I'm afraid it may take long again.pls u all shld advise a brother

thanks a lot bro.since I had finished my internship and was out of job.I needed to add it for them to know that I'm sponsored by someone that has a stable source of income in addition to my savings.I didn't want them to think that I won't come back again
