The issue is being able to stay for more than the 30days stipulation for a single entry
Genevach:
I can get the S.A. evisa faster for you
24 hours processing time. validity is 3months

bobodudu100: 8:28pm On May 11, 2024
For the temporary residence dont you have to be staying for more than 90days to qualify?
Genevach:


First the visa has 90 days validity
Second 3 year temporary residency is also possible.
I can get it done

pls I would like to ask this question again ,I had a banned 5 years ago for overstaying for 4 months ,The banned expired last year September ,wanted to ask if it’s okay to apply for SA again Incase I want to ? And mind you I have also renewed my port and I have different port number

Renewing your port doesn't change anything. You have a unique DHA number which doesn't change with any visa granted you. Within the period of your ban, have you visited other countries?

I'll also suggest you wait till next year before reapplying, and make sure you state your earlier ban. Otherwise na another ban you go chop.

3month visa don tire frequent travelers. Attach all your previous visa to them, and tell them to give 1 year. Them go don sabi you for that embassy. lol

It has automatically been lifted. Again, I suggest you give it another year or two before attempting to enter SA. Traveling to only one country in five years won't convince them that you are a responsible traveler. Go to other places and don't overstay - this is what SA would use to judge you in your next application.

Good evening everyone,
I once lived in SA for 5 years with my hubby who was also working. My last visa was overstayed because I was waiting for reply from home affairs. It 9 years since we came back to Nigeria (with 2 kids) hubby too became frustrated when he couldn't renew his visa too. He later came back to Nigeria. Now, I want to apply for master's and go back, is there any chance of being given visa after 9 years, with over stay record even though the years have ed?
Thank you
hunee: 8:17pm On May 17, 2024
Overstay requires a legal representation. Since you were in Sa for long, it makes it easier. Please ask your to help you get an immigration lawyer with connections to the home affairs. In no time, it will be wiped from the system, if you can afford the legal fees. Be informed that Overstay is not an easy process, All the best
