Foreigners who are spouses of South African citizens or permanent resident holders may apply for their life partner visa and upon receiving it, apply for permanent residence.

To obtain permanent residence, you would have to have been with your partner for more than 5 years. This came about with the new regulations published on the 1st July 2005.

The life partner visa is very similar to the spousal visa but accomodates same sex partnerships.

You will have to prove financial and emotional support and may be called upon to be interviewed by the department.

Fagor will guide you through the entire process and make sure that all is in order for your application. Once your application is in you will be able to track the progress of it by entering a unique reference code in our application tracking system and be kept fully up to date with the progress of your application.

Once we confirm that you will qualify for the visa we will guarantee you a successful application.
