I submitted my document 1 month back through my friend but still I haven’t received. Kindly anyone from department help to process it soon as desperately waiting for this to apply for my visa.
Processing Period is Maximum 3 weeks. You may contact your nearest Police Divisional Headquarters.
Yes. I contacted. But they said to wait for the call from them. I even contacted head office both via call and also in person. But still they ask to wait for the turn. Its 6 weeks but still not.
I need to ask, if I can order my morality paper by email and pick it up by myself because I just found the application form on this page? S it takes 3 or 4 weeks. How can I know, how long I need to wait for it? I stay in Flic en Flac and was planing to come to Rosehills headquarter on Tuesday.
My friend I would advise you to come in person in your own interest and with the documents as requested, original plus 2 copies. Further, you may have to wait for your turn to be received. So, please be early, the office opens at 8.30 a.m. the waiting time may be shortened through your earliest arrival. All the best. Take care.
