SAQA, I'm begging them to not destroy my academic and professional plans. I still have hope. It is being more than 7 months that I've app**** and I don't know where the application stand. They generically answer to people. Please, do not destroy my career

The status of my application, which has been in the “Seeking Verification” phase for over 90 days. When I submitted my application, I was informed that the process would be completed within 90 days. Regrettably, this timeline has not been met and The cutoff date for the completion of my application was April 20

My dearest hello peter friends. yes, SAQA still lives in the Cold War. Only specific devices are able to penetrate the services they are supposed to render. After many a day of collecting intelligence, via their terrible email handling, this is what it came down to. Please do not be someone using future-focused technology, rather, go to the Windows graveyard and find yourself a windows 95 server that might still be operational. Terrible service. Mimicking the state of our ruling government. I am trying to verify if the foreign institution, where I want to do my Masters, is accredited with SAQA. They have a link on their website. https://www.saqa.org.za/status-of-foreign-institutions/ But the consultant stated that I should not do the following: - Use Safari, - Use Firefox, - Use Google, or use any Apple products. Unable to verify via my iphone, ipad or my Mac. Are you not in 2025?

I paid upfront, shared the list of 5 or 6 documents required. They rep**** rejecting the application, asking for not just diplomas, but also transcripts, then certified diplomas, then certified transcripts, then to include tranlsations of the diplomas and transcripts, then certified translations. Always with a 48hr deadline. I sent all of that, and they still rejected my application. It's all submitted online, they hide behind a "noreply@saqa.co.za" email there is no way to get in touch with them directly. Essentially the business consists of taking the cash upfront and then not delivering the certificate

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with SAQA for my degree verification letter, the entire process was seamless. From start to finish, SAQA adhered to the deadlines and provided the exact information they outlined on their website. It was refreshing to experience such efficiency and transparency. I highly recommend others who need assistance from SAQA to carefully read the instructions available on their website—doing so ensures a smooth and hassle-free process. Overall, I am very satisfied with the service I received and will certainly turn to SAQA again if needed.

I app**** for SAQA evaluation back in 2015 and I successfully received the evaluation. Recently i needed to do professional registration and im told i must have a new barcoded electronic certificate from saqa. I contacted SAQA and requested for the updated certificate only to be told that i have to reapply for evaluation and pay AGAIN an amount of R2125 for an evaluation that they already did before. They claim that before they did not contact the learning institution so the process must be redone. How can they ask us to pay twice for the same service, an evaluation that they have already done and they have it on record. This is clear ******ion, a very unprofessional way of raising their own funds. If there was a negative rating i would give it.
