Anyone submitted an application last week at vfs? Is it ready?

stevetop:
Una weldone here o, please to submit docs for study visa at the embassy does one have to arrange the docs in a particular order? Does it make sense to print statement of account a day to submission? Also I plan to make a bulk deposit of like one million before printing. It is from my cooperative at work. Do you think it will not raise suspicions?

Response please!!!

stevetop:
Response please!!!

No need to arrange the docs in any specific way
It doesn't matter when you print the statement as far as it shows history of couple of months back
Making a bulk deposit that'll really change the face of the acc balance will raise suspicion but I'm not so sure...

A friend submitted her visitor visa application on the 7th, she's yet to receive.

She said she went to the South African embassy and was told that their system is down so they are currently approving manually. She also said they are currently treating submissions on 1st and 2nd, after which they will do 3rd and 4th. So they will probably reach her application by next week.

You are Good to go, I just got mine few days ago. Just message me i will assist you,However u need my Help.

Thanks for the response. The 3 months stated on my Police character certificate passed on the 6th of this month, do I need to do another or I can still use it as is?

Then those who recently submitted are in for a long wait

Priority visas were issued on Tuesday. I applied on Monday morning and got it on Tuesday afternoon but I don't know if the machine now works so the process can be faster.

pls house am applying for study permit on tuesday. all documents are completed nw but pls am gong for Ph.D programme and i was granted a scholarship for it but the scholarship bears chemical engineering while my admission letter carries mechanical engineering hope embassy will accept it?

Would have prepared for priority, didn't know about it on time. I pray their machine works

Simplesoul05:
Can I get a SA visa within a week?

Yes, if you get on the priority list. Not guaranteed if otherwise

Js22621:
Thanks bro, do you mean getting to renew the passport or another passport entirely? What's the probability of getting entirely new passport?

Renewal more like. Getting a new visa will mean changing your identity totally which sounds criminal to me.

Please i want to know how much is the total fee when applying for a Visitors VISA ? thank you guys you are the best .

OgaTheTop2:
Lol. Think of Souty women think of temptation.

Real temptation in deed. Can staggerlee tell us how d lecturer failed his masters mayb we can learn from this? Seems d equation relating temptation and resistance now is getting to that of inverse proportionality!

the guy was in University of the Witwatersrand doing masters, his masters was taught and research. he failed woefully in his taught courses then he was asked to leave.

have anyone visited some spots in Bramfontein n and see what Witts girls do or wear? @ogaTheTop2 try visit Maboneng in Jozi and see for yourself, its a sat evening though for today the patronage will be a bit low today cos south africans enjoy base on their pay day and pay day is 25th of the month, so people arent smiling now

back to the lecturer, he saw so many babes probably more than what he is used to, and he wanted to have a feel of so many and in process wasted valuable time which was meant for studies and he failed

After careful observation and following this thread i got my S.A. visa without any kangaroo agent assistance on this i say thank you guys.

I will be jetting out next Month but i will like to vist Mauritius before entering South Africa.

Here is my question : I learnt Mauritius is visa free for Nigerians fr 14 Days, if this is true can I fly to Mauritius from Lagos via S.A. Airline and use my visa from Mauritius back to S.A. where i intend to explore the beauty of Cape town and Johanesburg before returning to Nigeria.

Alternatively, can I use my visa to enter Swaziland from S.A. or I need a new visa ? If new visa is needed as do I get it ?

Thank you all as i await prompt response.

I submitted on 11th and am hoping for the best.
Your friend should keep checking the status next week. She might not receive any sms or email due to the machine issues.

Please house hw can i go abt dis i have scholarship letter in mechanical engineering ( thou mechanical is yet to be approved before I got the scholarship) and my admission letter stating chemical engineering can i use dis to apply at the embassy for study permit or need a note from my supervisor reasons for the different department on the scholarship letter and admission letter. Or I can go ahead and present like dat in embassy for visa application.

Jonathanogbonna:
good morning house am coming to SA with a visit visa but i intend to stay for long. please i need someone who can stay with to knw how things work over there. my number is 08182811053. i will appreciate thanks.

You are already planning to break the law before leaving Nigeria, this is really bad.
Coming to SA with a visit visa does not aallow you to stay more than 30 days, also u can not change your status of the visa. If u stay longer than 30 days u become an illegal. Please reconsider your move. We already have bad reputation in SA

Get a letter, remember the course of study will be on your visa, so you can't register for another course I.e if Mechanical engineering is on your visa, u can't get to ur school and register for chemical engineeing. Its not allowed, so try and fix it

@staggerlee, really appreciate your contributions.I actually overstayed for 9 days in October last year due to extension of my Training program in Pretoria,I am happy that i got the certification. the program was to last for five days but the assessor couldnt arrive form Europe on time and i was given just two weeks visa and i tried to get extension but failed.At the airport i was given a form to appeal.I now have company that are willing to emplye me over there.how do ingo about in in SA embassy in NIger or will i have to wait till OCtober this year.PLs yor advice will be highly appreciated

@ staggerlee should the letter come from my supervisor or where? d admission is chemical and while d scholarship is mechanical but the scholarship can be use in any engineering field.

First, did u appeal the overstay? If you didn't you have to wait till october. Any company can offer u a job. Are they willing to get you a visa to work? Cos for a company to employ a non SA citizen, the company must prove to the department of Labour and home affairs thay no SA citizen or Permanent Resident is available for the job

Are you using the scholarship letter as funding for your studies? I doubt if this is acceptable.

I really dont know just sort out the differences

@staggerlee still the same faculty so it cover it i guess

like i said if you come in with a different visa for another course you wont be allowed to register. whether same faculty or not. just make sure what is on your visa is what you are coming to study.

I actually have a visa that has geography written on it but I went ahead to register for my geophysics course without any questions asked.
I think the most important thing is that the school is the same.

Although mine maybe a bit different from yours because I actually have an admission for geophysics but the embassy mistakenly wrote geography on my visa instead of geophysics.

But nobody asked me why do you have geography on your visa and you want to do geophysics. Or maybe they didn't look close enough...

Maboneng. I didn't know about that place before I left SA.. Jozzi was kinda rough for me. I went to Park Station and that MTN park/station...very rough.
I'm back in the country now. I had a nice flight except when descending from 40000 feet altitude to land at MMA...this affected my eardrums..though getting relieved now. I don't know what that pilot was looking for at 40000 feet altitude..Kilode? We dey look for Shekau there?
Cape Town is my next visit in Nov/Dec. I hope I get to see some nice tourist sites there.

Why will you ever go to park station? Its like visiting Naija and going to Ajegunle.

Truth is you can register even without a visa it depends on who is on the desk, but if there is an issue and meet someone that is thorough then you will know. Cos it worked for u no mean say e go work for the next person on the queue
