Hi everyone. My sister has decided to get accommodation as proof of accommodation to the embassy. The school referred her to a landlord and She was sent a lease agreement and she has signed it, the landlord in capetown also signed it but she has not paid. Can she use it as proof of accommodation though the landlord said she can? Your contribution will be highly appreciated.

I applied at Lagos vfs office in November 11th till date I have not heard anything from the embassy.

PGD

By PGD you mean postgraduate diploma. If yes I have some questions for you.

1. Which school are you studying?
2. What is the outcome of your visa application?
3. How long was the processing time for the visa?
4. What documents did you submit during your application.

I will be happy if you can answer all of these questions.

Thanks.

Yes she can use it as long the landlord information and contact is on the agreement form

What I read and heard from this forum is booking from hotel directly is acceptable at POE. Thanks

Thanks

Please anybody with the contact number of the high Commission in Lagos should kindly post it, I need to contact them asap, registration closes in about a week time in my school.N.B I searched the recently posted number but that belongs to vfs and not the high Commission.

I have a friend who is in the same shoes of yours but he is in South Africa now....he did non appearance in Ghana

i need help i book 2 days hotel but am staying 13 days

she is always busy not always chance, what if i tell them i dont knowif i will like the environment , probablyi will get a new one if am not cool with the envirinment, what about that

Geenosko:


It's best your friend writes a signed letter stating that he/she would accommodate you for the period of your stay (stating the duration) and would ensure that you leave the Republic at the end of your authorized stay.

He/she should also include a phone number, a certified copy of his data page and permit (for non South Africans) or ID for SA citizens and Permanent Residents.

The reason for this letter is to prove to the PoE officials that you have somewhere to stay. If you present only two days hotel booking for a 13 day stay, it raises serious questions on your credibility as a genuine visitor.

I arrived to Johannesburg safely, thanks to everyone that have been in from the beginning.

Please how did you do your hotel booking ? did they confirm it ? and what questions did they ask you ? did you have any problems at the POE ?
