Visa and permit applications are prepared under SA Immigration. This desk is for the next step: when a refusal must be appealed, a pending file must be taken to court, or the Department’s silence has become unlawful. The instruction is legal work. It is not a second visa application.
High Court Litigation
PAJA review and applications to compel a decision on a temporary or permanent residence file.
Appeals
Internal review and appeal under section 8 of the Immigration Act.
Action against the DHA
Founding papers where the Department has refused, delayed, or acted outside the statute.
Pending DHA Applications
A written record and a court prayer when a lodged file will not move.
Compel a Decision
Mandamus-style relief to force the Department to decide.
Overstays, undesirability, and waivers remain under SA Immigration — Other Remedies. They are administrative files, not court files, until they become one.
