Processing Times

Of paramount importance to our clients is the time scales involved in processing their applications for visas, work permits etc. Although the time factor is largely dependant on the efficiency of and resources available to the relevant immigration authorities, NHIS will help you ensure that the processing of your application is not delayed unnecessarily (eg. due to submitting insufficient / inadequate information or supporting evidence required by the authorities). There are also some instances in which NHIS will be able to expedite the current processing times. For an estimate of the processing times the authorities are currently working to please visit the following websites:
