Relative Visa Enquiries assistance
Discuss joining family in South Africa with a clearer understanding of the relationship, intended stay and preparation that may be involved.
About this application route
Family connections are an important starting point, but the applicable route depends on more than the wish to live close to one another. We help organise an enquiry around your relationship, the family member’s status and your intended plans, so the right questions can be reviewed before you proceed.
What to consider
Clarify the connection
Explain who you plan to join and the relevant family relationship.
Define the intended stay
Describe whether you are planning a visit or a longer-term stay so the enquiry can be directed appropriately.
Consider individual needs
Discuss each person’s plans rather than treating an entire family as one identical application.
Prepare for your consultation
- Identify the family relationship relevant to your enquiry.
- Outline your family member’s broad status in South Africa.
- Describe your intended stay and any work or study plans.
- Arrange a discussion before choosing an application route.
Common questions
Does every family relationship support this route?
Do not assume so. The relationship and current requirements need to be considered for your circumstances.
Is this suitable for a short family holiday?
A short visit may involve a different route. Tell us the purpose and intended duration so your enquiry can be directed correctly.
Can several relatives enquire together?
Yes, but each person’s circumstances and preparation needs may differ. Share the family plan and the number of people involved.
