It seems that, despite several assurances and promises, the Home Affairs Department continues to fail South Africans when it comes to service delivery.

However, the most important concern is whether delayed applications are not being used fraudulently.

My wife applied for the renewal of her passport last October and got assurances that she would receive it in early December.

But she has not received it yet. This is a major cause of concern, especially with her needing it for work purposes.
