So It took 4 months??

Hello house, is it possible to add additional documents to your application after it’s been submitted? I want to add a new admission letter carrying a new resumption date. If possible, am I to do that through VFS or I should go to the high consulate in VI directly? Please ASAP responses needed. Thanks

Oh, I forgot to add, mine is student visa and not visiting visa. Student visa takes a minimum of 8 weeks and can extend to as far as 24 weeks. Awon oloshi

I'm not sure any of these is possible. This would have been possible if your documents were still with VFS which I presume not.

You may want to call VFS to find out.

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by tannystacey: 7:54am On Dec 16, 2021
Just here to say that don't believe every negative rejection story you read on this thread about SA visa.

There is always a reason why visas are rejected, but in the midst of all that, a lot of people still get their visas approved. Someone just got a multiple entry visit visa within 2 weeks of applying in Lagos.

No lobbying or any settlement.
Applied, submitted all required documentations without fabricating anything. Booked hotel reservations and flights.
The person submitted payslips for 6 months, bank statement with less than 200k sef, but added a dom account statement. Not sure it mattered but the person sha submitted every proof of funds.

The moment you suddenly add funds to your bank account before applying for visa, its already a red flag especially for visiting visas.

If you're employed, add all the required letters from your employer confirming your leave and purpose of visit. If you are self employed, add all the required documents supporting your business. Then stay positive and optimistic.

Then pray for favor. People are getting visas but not all of them are on Nairaland.

All d best to those still expecting results.

I disagree with you.
For sure,People have always been getting visas but don't downplay the racketeering going on in the consulate and the unnecessary denials that people on this thread have gotten when they submitted the right documents.

Someone was talking about going through the Namibia route to SA.

Is this advisable?

What are the pros and cons ?

Where did i downplay the racketeering or denials? Comprehension is a problem for most of you here. undecided

I am sharing a positive experience to give people some encouragement. I don't work at the embassy. Lets keep it at that and keep it moving.
