Hmmm, submitted my study visa application since on the 5th of March. Sent series of mail no response.

samtol4:
Application is still open for 2022 , hence most universities have not issued an admission letter while few have already issued it for 2022.

samtol4:
Above 2m is okay

samtol4:
Inform your school about the delays. Your school will email them on your behalf if your programme is starting soon.

samtol4:
2m above is okay.

Who is inviting you matters a lot. Citizens with proof of income invitation letters have high priority. Permanent residence invitation with evidence of income makes sense also. Lastly, the holder of a work visa can also invite you. Above all, you must show proof that you are employed or engaged in meaningful activities in Nigeria.

madejibo:
1. Admission letter (stating the course duration)
2. Letter of undertaking by the school
3. Medical aid
4. Bank statement
5. Proof of residence
6. Health certificate and radiology certificate
7. Police report
8. Yellow fever vaccination card
9. Itinerary (flight)

Now let me give this free tip, your bank statement should be in naira or if you have account in another country (not SA). Even if you are on a scholarship as long as the scholarship is from SA please try not to present it to the embassy here in Nigeria. The reason is like every other country, the evaluation officer wants to know how much you are taking to South Africa, they are not interested in the money already in South Africa. This is also applicable to people looking for other visas, your bank statement should be of Nigerian origin. Don't let your sponsor present a South African bank statement. Again, your account must have a good and comfortable balance.
Finally nothing is cast in stone, some are lucky but I don't believe in luck.
Ask yourself this question how much are you taking to South Africa?

Thanks once again man. Some folks that got refuses SA student visa recently said they its because of the Pandemic. That the schools are not running on campus session so the VOs were like "what are they going to do at school?".

I have to buy insurance and pay for Police report and these are expenses.
I don't know if I should go ahead and apply for the visa.

This is false, no one is being refused because of pandemic

pimper24:
Secondly, how long would the visa stay before issuing ? Ie the application process period

Krissy01:

Depends, it is rather slow now because of the pandemic

Anyone that has a solution should be advice .

Good evening everyone,

Please I need guidance with saqa.

There is a portion stating ”Purpose for evaluation", what should I pick?

I have a job already in SA, just want to do the SAQA for migration on critical skill migration.

Anyone with good info should please advise.
