Delay in getting Visa
Hi Sir/ Madam,

I had invited my parents to South Africa in Dec 2013. They applied the for the visa in November 2013 (in Mumbai) and till date haven't received the visa. The tracker in VSF site shows status reason as - SENT FOR VERIFICATION TO NEW DELHI. Its been more than a month that the status is same. What can be the possible reasons for the delay?

WATCH OUT FOR THIS PERSON!!!!!!!RAWOOT MUSADDIK ABDUL LATIF
Above mentioned person is gonna apply visitor's visa by the embassy to enter South Africa.This is all to bluff the Embassy as once he gets the visa he will not go back to his native as he wants to work in Capetown.

This person has been here thrice and now wanting to settle here.My duty as a South African was to inform the Embassy.Rest is in your hands.He will be applying soon anytime so watch for him.And further he will bring his family at a later stage once he settles here.

Best Regards

TRP: Temporary residence permit
I'm a South African citizen, I recently got married in India. I made an application for the above mentioned. I personally was at the Consulate and was not even allowed to enter the premises, the security was abrupt and rude I did not receive any adequate service; purely disappointed at the manner in which a South African is treated in his own Consulate! There was no way of attaining Information and to trace token numbers provided by the consulate is an impossible task as there is only one telephone line which is constantly busy. My wife was suppose to receive her passport and the TRP but has yet not received any response. I'm DISGUSTED by the service being a South African I did not expect such terrible service.

sudden travel plans..need visa urgently
Our nephew's fully paid travel plans to south africa got cancelled suddenly and the whole package has been passed on to my husband and me. We rushed to apply for visa on 12th without wasting any time but came to know that it requires 5 working days while I need visa earlier as the itinerary begins so..pls help and guide us in order to leave as per itinerary as no cancellation is allowed in the package and the best part of the itinerary is in the first 2 days.
