Hello house, pls I need urgent advice as I have between now and Thursday to decide on what to do.

With my present situation of visa denial on the basis of
1.) Insufficient funds
2.) Bank statement lacks credibility

And I was told to write to them within 10days.

1.) Do I appeal or reapply?
2.) What is the minimum amount one can have in his account for study visa with tuition free program?

I look forward to your kind response.
Hello house pls I need an advice on this?

If I have to appeal, do I need any documents in addition to the appeal letter?

My brother having read ur write up I dont know how I feel. Is very sad. After almost 4 months of waiting now these? And oky as if that's not enough the money u spent in all that.

Is really so heartbreaking.

Oky I dont know what to advice in these instances that you reapply with same documentations or suddenly creat a new one and reapply?


I am patiently waiting cos hopefully next week maybe there should be something cos that would make it 13 to 14 weeks.

I only pray for divine favour cos it seem they are intentionally doing some funny things

Meanwhile am really sorry for the disappointments.
Thank you my brother. Really frustrating. Resumption for semester 1 was March and I missed it, I was supposed to now resume semester 2 which is July but if I reapply or appeal and I don't know how long again this will take.

Write to Nikita (You will see his email on their poster). Explain to him and he will ask you to provide your denied visa as a proof for your claim. Then refund form will be sent to you to fill, and in less than one week you will be refunded.

I got his email address: Nikita.Balram@momentum.co.za
Thanks bro

No sponsor. Just my personal account. But I am considering adding a sponsor to mine and reapply.

Which medical aid is this? Momentum or CompCare?

I know Momentum has a way of allowing you to defer part of the insurance.
Momentum....

How do one go about?

Did you lodge a huge sum of money into your account prior to submission of your application. If so then that suggest the reason why they ticked account not credible. It once happened to me and I had to leave the money in the account for like 2 months before reapplying and I was granted the 2nd time.
Like how much is one supposed to have in his account?
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by lordwilliem: 4:35pm On May 24, 2019
Is it possible for one to request for his insurance since one is denied visa? And if yes, how do you go about it?

I just got a ups mail today and visit visa wasn’t given. Reasons:
1. insufficient funds to embark on trip( had about 1.460m in the account with very healthy transaction flow)

2. Bank Statement transactions lacks credibility (wonder what they mean by that)

I was told I could appeal within 10 working days. Do I appeal or apply again later? If so, how long do I wait before I re-apply?

Is there anyone that was denied on these grounds and later issued a visa on subsequent applications?
My brother, this thing looks like scan to me. I was denied based on these two reasons two and I am going for a tuition free program which is stated on my admission letter, I have accommodation already for my first one year with proof submitted, I have paid for health insurance already of which all these were the requirements I submitted with an account balance of 1.5M.

Yet I was denied after almost four months of waiting. I was supposed to resume semester 1 but because of the delay, my supervisor said semester 2 which will begin july. If I reapply as they said within the 10days, how sure it won't spend another 3-4months?

TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by lordwilliem: 4:13pm On May 24, 2019
My country people, I was so heart broken today to have been denied visa on the ground of insufficient funds with an account statement of 1.5M and a tuition free master's program.

Though I was ask to reapply within 10 days but my fear now is, won't this take another 3-4 months?

Just confused. Kindly advise house.

Hello house, I just got an SMS that my passport is ready for collection at VSF S/A visa application centre.

Applied 8/2/19 and I hope it's positive.

mroyato:
Go to the vfs application center and present your slip at the passport collection area. There they will confirm whether your visa is ready or not.

Option 2 which will take some weeks tho. Write to your school and explain your situation to them. Tell them when you applied and ask them to write the home affairs on your behalf.
Thank you very much. This is a good idea, I will go to their office first and the outcome is what will determine the next step.

I just called the momentum financial advisor now to enquire if anything could be done. Since the student health insurance has been active since 1st March. If it could be stopped and the date changed to future or something.


These Vfs guys are not really considering nothing here.

Who shall speak for us in these land?
What was the reply from the advisor?
TravelRe: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by lordwilliem:
Mimicle101:
That is 3 months 2 weeks!

But why would they be doing these. For school for Goodness sake. And how much one has spent for insurance, school fees and other things just to study. Is really so bad.

One should be already studying by these time now.

My sis study insurance started since 1st March and this is May so what's really going to happen
I tire oh. That's about 14weeks. Both insurance, application fee, SAQA evaluation fee because mine is master's. One has spent a lot . though I heard as far as one has not done registration, the insurance will not start counting.

This one your sister's own is undergraduate, let's be hopeful. That's hope they have not resume in her school?

Are you going for undergraduate, master's or PhD studies?
It's master's. I am really tired of waiting. Just that my supervisor told me I can resume semester 2 which will commence in July since they have started semester 1 already.

What school are you going to? And what category of study?
My brother it is University of KwaZulu Natal, research Master and my supervisor (Prof) is always asking me how far with the visa.

To everyone waiting for study visa, I hope we get good responses quickly. I applied on the 8th of March and this is my 10th week too. I' plan to visit the VFS office today or tomorrow to get any explanation. I also emailed the Consular General yesterday but no reply yet. I pray it will end in praise.
Why are they doing this? I applied for study visa since 8th of February and I still haven't hear from them. Very frustrating.

Good day my people, pls I need your advice.

I submitted application for study visa since 8th of February and yet I have not heard from the SA embassy. Whenever I track my application, it keep telling me same thing,

"Application received and under evaluation at the SA high commission Lagos"


I am tired of waiting.

Good day house and am new here.

I applied for south Africa study visa since 08/02/2019 and till now I haven't heard from the embassy and when ever I track it via the vsf site, I get "your application has been received and under assessment by the south Africa high commission in Lagos"

I am worried because it's taking longer than anticipated and there is no way I can do the registration without the visa. My research supervisor is already asking me how far with the visa.

Secondly, are they not supposed to invite me for an interview?
