Spouse visa rejected with marriage certificate

Hello,<br> <br> my request for a spouse visa (22nd of January 2015) was first rejected after 6 weeks because I was unable to satisfy the department by failing to comply with the requirements prescribed in terms of regulation 3 of the immigration regulations. Which does not make sense because I provided all the documentation required including my marriage certificate (used Intergate Immigration services). My appeal was done on the 13th of March, 12 weeks later we have no feedback. Intergate is in constant communication with them and nothing, all they say is that it is still in process. <br> I was supposed to go back to France in June to see my family that I haven't seen since August last year, but right now I can't do or plan anything because DHA is so unreliable. Intergate say the appeal department is understaffed and everything there takes longer. My application was wrongly rejected at first and now 4.5 months later I'm still waiting... so unfair ! <br> I am married to my south african husband - how difficult can it be to grant me a visa to stay with my husband. Why does it need to take 4 months. RIDICULOUS! <br>
