Extended working hours at Home Affairs

Source: Roodepoort Connect, 23/11/2018

Roodepoort Home Affairs office manager, Lungile Afrika, wishes to
notify resident that the office will be open on Saturday, 17 November
and Saturday, 1 December.
The reason for the extended hours is the large number of identify
documents (IDs) that have not been collected by applicants. Lungile
urged resident to use this opportunity to collect their documents.
â€œWe have decided to extend our office hours to give the public enough
time to visit the branch and collect their documents. Our store room
is full of documents that have not been collected,â€ Lungile said.
Normal working hours are Monday to Friday from 8am to 4pm. On the two
Saturdays, they will be open from 8am to 3.30pm.
Their offices are located at 127 Albertina Sisulu Road, Roodepoort,
Johannesburg, 1724.
