hi, any south Africans living in the uk who have recently applied for south African passport renewal ? hoping to get some help with the process if you live far from London. is it possible to get a renewal by mail ?. obviously i have been on the website but have a few issues that are out of the contained info on the forms. i have both British and south African passports, apparently new rules suggest that i have to give proof how i got to become a south african at the age of 11 ! when i turned 16 i got a south African id and a sa passport. i just applied . i only got my brit passport many years later. parents no longer with us ,so cant ask them.how do i prove that i got the docs apart from the fact i have them in my hand ?

was recently informed that i cannot visit south africa with just my brit passport, if i have both i have to enter with the south african one.this has really bummed me out, does it mean i have to give up my sa passport ? i have dreams of returning to sa, not something i would like to give up on.
