With a reputation as the land of beauty and opportunity, South Africa is a prime choice for foreign nationals interested in relocating away from home. Whether travelling as a student, fulfilling a critical skills shortage or retiring on foreign shores, a professional South Africa Immigration Consultant can ensure that your immigration journey is hassle-free.
At June Luna Immigration Attorneys, we have spent almost a decade successfully helping foreign nationals achieve temporary or permanent residency. In our experience, most applicants suffer months – most often, years – of unnecessary and expensive delays before seeking professional help.
In our ongoing effort to provide unmatched immigration services, our immigration lawyers and support staff for South Africa will guide you through the process, provide an estimated timeline (excluding complications) and follow up with the Department of Home Affairs on your behalf.
Along with taking on the administrative details, our immigration lawyers can consult and provide expert advice on various situations. These include applying with a criminal record, the requirements of travelling with school-age children, or your options as a student graduating with a degree listed as a critical skill. Truthfully, there is only so much information a private citizen will have access to, which is why we strongly encourage professional guidance.
Alternatively, if you have an existing residency application going through extended delays, JLIA can expedite the application and force an outcome through litigation. Our South Africa Immigration consultants are well-versed in navigating the Department of Home Affairs and overcoming their delays.
When planning your future, the last thing you need is administrative troubles. For unmatched South African immigration services, please contact our team to discuss your needs. Here’s to the future you deserve.
