Does a property purchase affect applications for permanent residence?
|
|
For any foreign person seeking to reside permanently in South Africa, applying for a permanent residence permit, or at least a temporary residence permit, is obligatory. Permanent residence applications are assessed completely independently of the issue of property in South Africa. However, the current immigration law and regulations do allow for immovable property owned in South Africa to be taken into account when assessing the applicant's net worth.
Before embarking on the process of applying for permanent or temporary residence in South Africa, it is best to consult with an immigration lawyer since South Africa's immigration laws have recently changed and are complex. |
