Dear Honorable Minister
We are excited about your enthusiasm and your commitment feels palpable. I am a British citizen who has been in the country since early 2013. I came via a critical skills visas, had both my sons late 2013 and 2015 in Johannesburg . I have been on a permanent residence visa since 2000 but my kids applications for permanent residency is nearing 2 years now with no update except that they are under review. I am a senior professional in the health sector, contribute towards tax, of good standing order in the community and have been committed to the growth of SA in my field but I feel let down. One of my sons has missed a scholarship opportunity as he is an excellent student at one of the prestigious schools. One of the requirements of the scholarship was to have permanent residency but he missed the opportunity. Please kindly assist.
