[@comfortmkhwanazi7339]

Wow !!!!!!!!! Thanks for the informative video, I'm a law student and I learnt a thing or two about South African Citicenship.

[@mosesgivenmamba958]

I am 15 years old and i was born in Namibia and my father is south african and my mother in namibian, is there anyway i can get a south african birth certificate?

[@erikloeffen4143]

So can you get a business loan from South Africa for the 300,000 to start a business and pay the business loan back giver time

[@devonpatillo5]

Is it possible to have a Dual Citizenship if you are coming from America? To say if I bought a home and I want to retire there, can I still apply for a citizenship?

[@trying2adult]

Yes you totally can. A lot of retirees from places like the US, Europe, etc. actually love coming to South Africa for retirement because the cost of living is significantly cheaper here compared to the US while the quality of life is really good too. You will be moving to South Africa on a retirement visa which you can then "upgrade" to a permanent residence permit of which after a couple of years you will qualify for citizenship... check out my previous video on permanent residency in SA - youtube.co/watch?v=RyFA_aTEqAs

[@OfficialAfolorunsho]

Thanks a million. I will like to get any new update about SA visas please.

[@trying2adult]

My pleasure. I will definitely keep an eye out for updates and videos will follow!

[@OfficialAfolorunsho]

How do you get the visa successfully as a tourist?

[@thabangtladi8247]

You still want to come to jealousy and xenophobic ppl in SA💁‍♂️is how desperate you are??

[@hildapiet2508]

Hey Tino my name is Jabulile. My Dad is Zimbabwean and my Mom was South African so after she passed on my my dad married another woman from Zimbabwe. My dad has been here for 26 years, my aunt for 15 years. They both don't have a South African citizenship so it's a problem for my three siblings to get a citizenship because they were born in this here in SA. How can we fix this because they have been going up and down with this issue.

[@mahlatse8605]

They should be able to get residency... as long as they have been working here, paying taxes, lived here etc.

[@mahlatse8605]

I think he answered your question

[@hildapiet2508]

Thank you

[@trying2adult]

Hey Hilda. I agree with Mahlatse. Your mom was South African so you are automatically a South African too. You should be able simply get your South African ID with your birth certificate (which will have details of your mother). However, if your siblings' mother is not South African then they I don't think they can apply for citizenship. They might be able to apply for permanent residency if your father still has a valid Permanent Residence permit for South Africa though.

[@laikadhavaran368]

Thank you very interesting. Do you have an email address?....Require some advice please.

[@mujahidamjad6321]

Hi dear I'm 20 years old My mother is south African I don't have south Africa birth certificate. So how i can get the id .

[@AliensFromEarth]

Another question sorry, so do we get to identify as South African's on our official documents once we get our permanent resident permit?

[@mattm8105]

Would I qualify for citizenship/passport if my father was born there and moved to the UK after he was 18? I've heard conflicting answers...

[@trying2adult]

If you father was a South African citizen when you were born then you should qualify. If he is a South African citizen now you should also qualify. Disclaimer: I’m not an expert if you are considering this is is best to consult an immigration agency; they are better equipped to deal with these things. You can find a few of them on Google... you can also try reach out to the department of home affairs but I dunno how useful those guys can be for such enquiries.

How long does naturalisation take? I'm thinking of getting dual citizenship, but I'm concerned the process will take very long. This was very informative though, thank you ✨

[@trying2adult]

I haven't been through the process myself but from what I've heard, the processing time after you have submitted your Citizenship application can be up to 3 years..sometimes more if there are complications

[@ccrraazzyyggiirrll]

[@trying2adult]

😂 which is why it's actually one of the visa's they are most strict with when it comes to verification. It's a tough world

[@JeffMbiyaMwambaFoundation]

Spousal visa not easy to acquire.Been marriage for almost 10years to a south African woman we got 4kids together. I have Been in the country for 18yesrs.I still haven't got any perm res I together with my wife walked up and down the stairs of home affairs to no good successful outcome.Most of the times they Refered us to the immigration attorneys.who will just take us in a long ride and even send me to a country of birth to bring them my police clearance from there that I have no crime there (you know I left my country as a 17year old boy and did not commit any crime there )but you see it is what the Vfs .I did go there bring the police clearance from there and here ...till today still has no perm res. ..Attorney's fees 15k. ..paid 1/3 already. Spousal permit is the longest and tiresome channel Many of my friends who had refugee status today they are in possessions of perm res and green barcoded ID. I keep renewing the visa and get new passport each 5years I don't know if the system is corrupt.

Long as waiting times and not very easy to go through the application but I guess that's because it's fairly easy to meet the requirements compared to the alternative routes.

Down side is that some may use freudulently and might scam people.
