VFS update regarding appeal applications

ATTENTION: APPEAL APPLICATIONS
All appeal applications will now follow a revised online process. This will be effective from the 26 January 2019.

Applicants are requested to refer to the below before applying for an appeal application:

  • Applicants will only be able to apply for an appeal application once their previous application has been collected from the VFS application centre.
  • Applicants will only be able to submit an appeal application within 10 days of collecting the rejected outcome.
  • Applicants can only appeal once under the appeal category 8(4) and if rejected for the second time they will have one last opportunity to submit a final appeal under appeal category 8(6) which is then submitted for the review of the director general.
