Mar 13 2013 11:48 AMApplying for a South African visa on your own can be a frustrating exercise. Immigration to South Africa can also be a complicated process if you dont know what you are doing. Using a company like New World Immigration to apply on your behalf is always a good idea. We offer a FREE ASSESSMENT to all our prospective clients so take advantage!
As with any legal process, one can represent themselves when dealing with Home Affairs. If you speak to any foreigners currently living in South Africa, they will all tell you of some horror story concerning their application process or other people they might know.
There are two options available to applicants wanting to apply for a South African visa. They can either lodge the application abroad in any country where they have residency OR submit a Change of Conditions application using a BI1740 form and this can be done IN South Africa. Quite a common permit that we facilitate is the Life Partner permit and the Spousal Permit which applicants often apply for in South Africa
If one is applying from abroad, various things change like the application form itself which needs to be noted before one attempts to apply. If one is thinking about adding working rights to their spousal visa for example, this is also a different process.
