Immigration law in South Africa is governed by the Immigration Act 13 of 2002 and administered by the Department of Home Affairs. Immigration lawyers help with visas, work and study permits, permanent residence, appeals against rejected applications and status issues for foreign spouses and children.
Visa and permit applications are lodged through VFS Global for the Department of Home Affairs, and a refused application can be appealed within 10 working days. Court reviews go to the High Court. For Middelburg that is the Mpumalanga Division of the High Court, which sits in Middelburg.
No one can guarantee timelines at Home Affairs, but a lawyer can make sure the application is complete, which avoids delays and rejections.
You can usually appeal within a set period. A lawyer can review the reasons and prepare the appeal.
