Holders of a valid online asylum-intention receipt are protected from being arrested, detained, or deported for illegal entry or lack of documentation, provided the receipt is a first-time application IMC Chairperson Mmamoloko Kubayi said home affairs plans to introduce the phased registration model by 10 November 2026.

How will the police know that the application has been rejected?

The streets will determine what happens, we have seen it happen countless times

With all these fake certificates how will police know the difference??

So just a receipt and your illegality and deception is protected??!!

Basically we are told no one is leaving 🤷🤷🤷

They say nothing about repairing and erecting the proper border fence to stop these illegal immigrants, otherwise people are going to abandoned they countries n come in through unsecured borders. Imagine 3 to 4 billion asylum seekers in SA. How are we going to live like that?

Ao bathong, re swelang Mr President. The gates are wide opening for the whole world to claim asylum in RSA. Please consider your decision. The people have spoken.

This govt is shitty!

They are all going to be first time applicants. They change their identities every day!!!!

We have few weeks to the election, unless something drastic happens within Comrades my vote won’t be part of this.

South Africas immigration crisis will double by December because we have a stupid and short-sighted government. This is free ticket to SA. How can a person roam the strees of a country for years with just a ‘receipt’?

So why does South Africa have immigration laws?

How will they get someone's finger prints online??

One they’ll do is PROTECT THEM!

So basically anyone can come here and claim asylum and no law enforcement is meant to do anything about it? Go sharp 👍

OOOHHH okay no wonder they documented them..They dont want them deported..They want to fight for them while they are here... So this means any criminal can come to SA illegal and apply for asylum and theres nothing we can do about it as voters

At this point I'm thinking of applying for asylum even if I'm a South African cos it seems Safer and the Government can protect my rights that way 😔😔

It will take 10 years before the first applicant is deported,and the ANC will not be in government at the time.

These ANC people are making their laws as they go... real abuse of power... the law says, while waiting for the outcome of your application, the applicant must keep their status in the country valid at all times, meaning their passport must be valid & endorsed at all times!

Ay siyabhedelwa la

@mytouchrecords So as an asylum seeker you can apply online? That’s a better life than 21% of South Africans 🇿🇦
