The person in question was granted leave to remain in the State for a twelve month period on 12 April, 2005. In January this year she submitted an application for leave to remain on behalf of her daughter, Relebohile, who had entered the State sometime in 2005, the date of her entry into the State, is as yet unknown.

The person should now contact my Department to apply for renewal of her permission to remain in the State. My Department will then be in a position to consider both applications.
