Many Thanks
I would just like to thank Miss Custodio and Miss Hayden for all their help in getting my wife and children's Residence permits ready on time for our departure to South Africa this week. I have dealt with them three times in two years now and every time they were very helpful and friendly and we always got what we wanted in time. Get all your paperwork and requirements in order and there will be no problem!!! They handled all our application present and past in a polite and professional way. Again I want to commend these two ladies for doing there job properly. God bless and keep up the good work!!!!

IN EXPERIENCED SOUTH AFRICAN EMBASSY IN MANILA
I a girl friend in manila,who is busy trying to get a visa to visit me in South Africa for 3 months,i have sent an invitation letter,banking statements and an itinery for a tour,also a letter from my lawyers,begging for her visa for 3 months,but all they can say that they want her bank statements,which she does not have.So no visa they say,its not necessary,as I am funding all responsibility,eg full bond payment,air fares and etc.She has been for councilling and all requirements,but they still insist on her bank statements,where does one get that when you never worked.Its a bloody shame,when all other requirements were met.It seems I must go over marry her there and apply for a visa,Its a crying shame for south Africa,yet millions,of Zimbabwians are thriving here,with no documents,the authorities are doing nothing about it,but in my case for a visit they want bank statements.The south African law is carried out with who sit in wrong places and are so called bosses and don't know their job.Catch a wake up as our country is sliding the same way as all other black countrys in SOUTH AFRICA
