More Zimbabwean Passports Still to be Processed

Zimbabwean Consul General, Godfrey Magwenzi, has told NGO stakeholders in Johannesburg that fewer than 10 000 passport applications out of 72 261 received by the consulate remain to be processed.
 
The situation is more difficult for Zimbabweans who filed a preliminary application for a residency permit without providing identification documents or who surrendered false documents.
 
Those who are affected must apply for new identification documents in Zimbabwe, and get a passport there before returning to South Africa, which NGO stakeholders say was unfair to those who are now living in South Africa.
