My first international trip was 2018, before covid. Just for the records, i spoke about need for portfolio and proper documentations because it is important going forward. Even with the advent of electronic visas, who says it now easier? On this platform, someone has said they applied 3/4times for evisas and got rejected. It is of note and key interest to understand that all documents is not document, applying for visas is a strategic process and requires months or maybe years of proper planning, because in the end, a 2mins interview or assessment can determine your fate.
Graceness777:
Better thank God for evisa,after the Covid 19 SA visa became more difficult to obtain
I keep submitting. And there was nothing wrong with this documents
I made sure I had a steady amount of same salary going into my account every months
. But those sticker visa officer are not just ready to give a first timer visa
Until they started this evisa . I submitted the same document and in less than 10days got my visa.

Despite my travel history ooo
Tentatively, we should look at the grey areas for visa applications, where they usually spot on for approvals.
1. Your home times (Family, Investments, Mortgage, Properties)
2. Economic situation in your country at a particular time ( Recession, Unfavorable government policies)
3. Discrepancies in names,informations about you ( You dont want to have shalewa on your passport and have shade on your document) Everything must align.
4. Your finance , inflow and outflow over a period of 3/6months. Not proof of fund some people do at the dead hour ( They know about it)
5. Your letters ( Cover, introduction) You must show genuine intent to visit a country by drafting a convincing letter
6. Applying for the right visa category ( Tourist, Business, Visit, Medical have classifications, be sure of what you are applying for)
7. Supporting documents are evidences to show you have good standing and be can traced. Anything that concerns you is a support document( House rent Agreement, anything !)
8. Finally, if you are asked to fill a form with blue pen , use blue pen. Read informations carefully, something alot of you actually do not do, you are always in a haste, and we see that display here too.

Above all, You must understand that carrying out research about where you intend to visit will also aid your application on the long run. Visa officers are not magicians, they are trained to read people. So, present your applications like you are attending a job interview, it is a serious business applying for visas.

Thank you.

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by hunee: 2:05pm On Dec 26, 2023
Confirm with your ticketing agent or the airline if you can transit and join the flight back by connection time. Do this from your end.
You may need an angola visa, however i am not sure of the stakes.
vozkini:


16hours or so
I could recall when i was arriving back to Johannesburg for the third time and had to transit through lusaka,zambia, they allowed us pass connecting route without a transit, though the lay over was 2hrs. But 16hrs is a long time, so ask if there's a waiver to enter or you need a visa.

You can manage in the transit section or contact the airline for additional provision. I understand some airlines like ethopia and kenya airways do this. You have kids, they should see to it.


CONTACT THE AIRLINE OR YOUR TICKETING AGENT!

Good day people. Please, I want to know if it really matter. I got my study visa today through DHL. I discovered that my first/given name was interchange for my middle name. But my surname/family name is in order. Does it matter?

This means that there is variance(in arrangements) between the first/given name in my international passport, but the surname is in order.
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Sojeezy247: 8:29am On Dec 28, 2023

I am thinking perhaps I should get an affidavit. Though all the names are correctly spelt, just the arrangement between the first and middle name.

I used Kenya airways flight itinerary. Return flight. I guess it doesn't matter if the proposed travel time elapsed before you get your Visa. In my own case, I submitted my application in the month of July, and I got approval in December.
