Your Washington, D.C. Email address is INVALID
Please change your email address so I can be able to make my inquiry. I need to know if I can get my police clearance from any embassy or consulate in the USA? May someone assist? Thank you

traveling with a minor child
I was able to get all of the needed information by phone. The embassy staff person was so helpful and spent the time necessary to answer all of my questions. Much appreciated. Thank you!

Why do persal numbers in RSa issued without proper documentaion:Morphotype fingerprints are required.
To all.
Urgent!

We do suspect that some if not many of government employees are working without proper identity documents.
The persal system must check this and a morphotype fingerprint correspondant is required or a prerequisite.

No calls are answered
I am trying to reach a human being at the Consulate/Embassy but nobody answers their phones. Really? All I need to know is how to get a Power of Attorney letter to send to my son in SA because my bank account is locked and he has to take the letter to the bank.

SA passport
Applied for a permanent SA passport last year, still haven't receive it. And embassy seems to be completely shut down. No one is ever available and sometimes phone goes straight to a voicemail. So disappointed :-(

VISA REQUIREMENTS FOR EL SALVADOR
I AM A CITIZEN OF EL SALVADOR AND AM PLANNING TO TRAVEL TO SOUTH AFRICA NEXT MONTH. ON SOME WEBSITES IT SAYS I DO NOT NEED A VISA TO ENTER THE COUNTRY. HOWEVER, ON HERE EL SALVADOR IS NOT ON THE LIST OF COUNTRIES THAT DO NOT NEED A VISA PRIOR TO ARRIVING IN SOUTH AFRICA. WHAT IS THE CORRECT ANSWER?
