Obtaining permanent residency in South Africa comes with several benefits. From no longer needing to renew a temporary visa every few years, taking a step forward in qualifying for South African citizenship, obtaining a South African identity book, or simply joining the ‘citizenship’ line at the airport, your life in this incredible country is about to get a lot more convenient.
However, most applications for permanent residency in South Africa are a mixed bag. Despite the joy of building a future in one of the most beautiful countries in the world, you’re now, unfortunately, forced to deal with the frustration of residency administration. At June Luna Immigration Attorneys, our team has almost a decade of experience successfully helping permanent residence candidates achieve residency quickly and efficiently.
While the standard timeframe for applications for permanent residency is between eight to twenty-four months, there is no guarantee you will receive an outcome within that time. Many of our clients went through months – more often years – of delays before seeking the assistance of an immigration attorney. At June Luna Immigration Attorneys, we can assist you with the application process from the start or take on the duty of obtaining an outcome for your existing application, liaise with the Department of Home Affairs and even force an outcome through litigation if necessary.
Our team is well-versed in the frustration that clients feel after suffering delays with little or no feedback, which is why we do all we can to ensure that your application is resolved as quickly as possible. Working with a trusted and experienced immigration attorney can help ensure that you avoid unnecessary stress and wasted resources on your way to becoming a permanent resident. Contact our team today and let us help you achieve permanent residency.
