CONSENT FORM
I will be travelling to South Africa for INDABA and post fam trip to Cape Town from 6th to 12th May. My minor son will be joining me in Cape town on the 12th May and he will be travelling with my wife and his grandparents. I was told by VFS I will need to give a consent form since I am travelling earlier and son, wife and parents later.
Is the consent form required since he will be travelling with his mother and grandparents?
I am from the travel and trade industry and have spoken to Tourism South Africa, they said I could give a notarised affidavit giving my consent for my child to travel with my wife and parents, as my wife and son are currently out of city and we need to apply visas by tomorrow. Will that be valid or do we need to personally come to the consulate to sign the affidavit?

Who are waiting for their critical visa for more than 4 months?
I want to know how much time does Consulate in Mumbai normally takes to process critical skill application. Please share your contact details if you are waiting for more than 4-5 months for critical visa.
As waiting period has increased indefinitely.

Waiting for reply to an Appeal to the Consulate
I had applied for Visitor Visa (DHA-84) for South Africa on 4th Jan 2016, the Visa was rejected for reasons "unskilled and unemployed". I made an appeal for review of decision on 25th Jan 2016 submitting my educational, skill qualification certificates & experience certificate along with the appeal. Till date I have not received any response from the consulate. I want to know by when I will get a reply as I am forced to reschedule my meeting time and again.
