Hello everyone, I have been offered Claude Leon Foundation postdoctoral fellowship tenable at Nelson Mandela University, and would like to process my visa in Lagos. I did my study permit (2014) and renewal (2016) at Abuja embassy for my PhD programme at Rhodes. I need information on how to apply through Lagos embassy. The last permit renewal at Abuja wasn't good enough for me. Someone should help me with detailed information on how to go through Lagos embassy. Thank you.

It’s the same process I’ve done study permit in both it’s just that Lagos is faster

wolex2090:
Did you confirm this information from VFS or south African embassy commission?

I got this info from the South Africans at the abuja high commission as I said I physically went there s few days ago

Emperoh:
I think Abuja has issues. I submitted mine since 28th of September in Abuja and no response up till now

I went to the embassy they said they have a backlog of applications so visas will only be issued from next or upper week and they also changed consulars so things are a bit slow .

Hello house, my dad is my sponsor for my study in S.A and he is using his company's account statement cos the account has a very goood cash flow and turnover.
My question is: Is he meant to state that he owns the company in the sponsorship letter he would write and does he have to submit any proof that he owns it??

I think you can just put a signed letter from the company saying they’re sponsoring you that’s what I did when I used a company account

I’m running out of patience this will be the 9th week on Wednesday and nothing when I track it still says your application is under assessment at the abuja high commission. And then they’ve got no contact number that works

paulavon:
Mine is Critical skill Visa. Pls what aviation school are you attending?

Powered flight training center in wonderboom airport Pretoria.

paulavon:
We have no choice than to wait.

But I’m getting worried like what could be wrong VFS made sure I had everything before I submitted so I don’t know I’m just anxious man . Is yours aviation ?

paulavon:
Please have you received your passport now? Mine will be 8 weeks by next week and i have not heard from them.Why so much delay

I still haven’t heard from them oh I’m assuming if there was something wrong they would have said something . And the abuja embassy doesn’t have a contact number that works so I don’t even know what to do again .

yomifoster:
My took 6 weeks. I submitted in September and collected in October. Its a renewal though

This is my 7th week is there a number you can call ? They told me it’ll take 8 weeks and mine is renewal too

Has anyone recently gotten their study permit? How long did it take please ?

Has anyone got the number for the SA high commission abuja ? All the ones I’ve got online don’t go through

Everyone has been ignoring my questions here please how much do I need in a bank statement for study visa and how long is it supposed to take I’m on my 5th week now

Is a bank statement with like 1.5 million naira and transactions totaling over 100m okay for study permit

qalifa:
I submitted my study permit application since the 29th my last one did take 8 weeks tho I’m just scared because my bank statement has like 1. Something million I’m it but transactions over 100m and the flight ticket I booked was one way. Please who was recently gotten theirs ? Thanks

Still waiting on a response... thanks

Unisa remains the best place to find out if you can use their letter to secure study permit.

Please can u attend to my earlier post

tjcoded:

samtol4:

HankVoight:
Evening,
1. Please in respect to flights booking; do I need to pay for the flight before I submit my visa application? If No, am I to pay for the same flight reservation I submitted to the embassy which has a 72 hour reservation holding since i choose the 'pay later' option OR can i move on and pay for another flight on a later day?
2. how much is the visa processing fee for study permits; is it 8,600 or 18,000?
3. Do I need to photocopy my vaccination card?

Thank you for your help.

No u only need a flight booking. And study permit fee is N8600. You need a photocopy of both the back and inside of the yellow card
