Sorry man that your Visa was denied. Why will the agent submit a fake SAQA for you, it barely takes one month and few weeks for you to get your SAQA evaluation.I am afraid to say it will be difficult for you to obtain any other Visa to SA, you must have been blacklisted.

Good day house. I recently got a vacation Visa for SA for three weeks. I intend spending 14days though in Johannesburg, hoping to visit Pretoria and a couple of other "safe" places if time and my budget permits.

1. Please my question is with regards accommodation. I have a friend willing to accommodate me in that period but I am skeptical with regards testimonies of persons here commenting about having proof of hotel reservation/ booking to cover your period of stay. I wish assistance on what to do as I am looking towards cutting cost the best way possible and booking for the 14 days will be sapping.





If your friend is a legal resident, let him scan his/her passport pages that contains his bio data and his valid permit, then write a letter indicating that he would be accommodating you for the said period. This should be fine. He should include his phone number too. You can present this at the POE.

A forged document is a BIG DEAL.
Not sure why the agent gets the blame here - you were aware, no?

Anyway, forget about SA for now until you have a VERY strong reason to visit.

I believe HND holder should also have the opportunity in S.A. what's the possibility of studying in S.A with an HND in Electrical engineering for direct masters and what does NQF 7 means on SAQA evaluation... Does NQF 7 qualifies to apply directly for a research based masters or Coursework only

Thanks

NQF 7 bachelors
NQF 8 bachelors degree with hons
NQF 9 masters degree
NQF 10 PhD

you might be recommeded to do a postgraduate diploma first.... depends on the school anyway

This should not be an issue, All you have to do is for you to go to any Police station in SA to do a finger print indicating Critical skill Visa. Then inform them that you will be sending it to Nigeria. Once you get that you can send it to someone in Nigeria via courier to do the clearance for you at Alagbon then the person will send the polica clearance cerificate back to you in SA.

long process.....
i went to nigerian high commission at illovo, got a letter from them, then attached the police clearance certificate from SA

choose anyone that works best

Hi guys okay so I’m renewing my study visa and I have one year left on my passport tho I wanna apply for two years . Immigration says they’re gonna have to cancel my passport without prejudice because they can only renew it if it’s got 6 months left, my question is my application and school letter plus all documents are written with my passport number so if I get a new passport now would I have to redo everything? Like her new police clearance and all that? Thanks you and please it’s urgent .

get a new passport and join both of them together

You don't need any agent. You can handle the application yourself.

Dont bother. Save your money. You will have to let it go and explore BETTER options. SA does not represent the end of the road for any nigerian. Not even in our present state.

Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by Diamond1960: 4:45pm On Jul 28, 2018
Look at you with your statement 'ONLY BECAUSE OF A FORGED SAQA EVALUATION'. You should be enjoying yourself behind bar now. What a big offence, is it by force to get Critical Skill Visa or to even travel abroad. With all the threads you have read on this platform you still went ahead to Forge. No one care if the agent aids your criminality.

You can now do SA police clearance digitally at any VFS office in SA. Don't worry about the paper form of SA police clearance that you have.

Hello House,

Is there anyone here in SA who has gotten visa on his/her about to expire passport before? My passport expires August 2019 and I want to apply for 2yrs (or more) program... Do you think they will stamp my passport with a visa beyond my passport expiration?

Kindly advice please, I want to renew my SA visa and I am not sure if I can get a new passport since it still remains about 12months for my current passport to expire.

Thanks
