Good morning, @TangoN.
We're grateful for your inquiry.
ID and passport applications are managed through the Home Affairs website. While we assist with payment processing, you'll need to visit any of our participating branches for biometrics and collection.
Once you've initiated your application on dha.gov.za, you must subscribe before making payments to DHA. Ensure your application is complete and a reference number is generated for payment processing.
Here's how to proceed:
You can find our bank branches listed on the website. We recommend checking for available dates 2-4 weeks in advance.
Please let us know if you need further assistance.
Kind regards, Standard Bank Team

I seriously hope this is not the case, I have just applied for my 2 kids through my bank, they are young so OBVIOUSLY they do not have bank accounts and they are my minor dependants. The money has been taken out of my account, R1200, but it will not reflect as payment successful so I cannot book to do the biometrics and I am getting VERY frustrated.

Have you ever heard of anything so silly!! So only I can make use of the online system and pay via my Standard Bank account, but nobody else in my family can???? Really????
I thought we used Standard Bank to deal with more efficient systems not more of the same garbage we get from home affairs.

I am also waiting for the bill to reflect from the department of home affairs so that I can pay, How long does it take to reflect? I have redone it a few times and still nothing?

In the space provided, type the person's ID number and the payment request should pop up. This is how it usually works, however, the payment request pop up after typing in the ID number doesn't seem to working currently. I've done many payments on behalf of family members. But there seems to be a serious issue with the payment requests not showing at the moment.

I've made several payments on behalf of family members so I know exactly how the system works. However for the last week, the payment request sent from the DHA website to my standard bank account doesn't show. Usually, under My Bills - Pay on behalf of - Departmen of Home Affairs, I would type in the ID number and then the payment request will pop up. But it doesn't anymore. This has been going on for the last week or so, where the payment request isn't showing on the standard bank internet banking. Please can you investigate this urgent.

When trying to pay the department of home affairs via Internet banking and even after subscription it doesn't show where I can pay the bill. It's been 3 days now and it's frustrating as I also tried calling standard bank yet still no success. I really need to make an ID before going back to work .

I had to subscribe to the Department of Home Affairs, under My Bills.
Once I had done that, the request for payment, with the reference number, reflected.
I then paid and it worked.

Did you pay from your own bank account? Standard Bank requires that the person making the online application via eHome Affairs, that person's ID number and the ID number of the account holder atn Standard bank, must match.... so silly! So only you can make use of that service. If you have to apply for your minor children, you cant because their ID numbers wont match the ID number on the bank account.

This is ridiculous! The ID number of the account holder and the ID number of the person applying online may match as it is my account, HOWEVER, my two young children doesn't have bank accounts and OBVIOUSLY their ID numbers will not match with the ID number on MY BANK ACCOUNT! Have you ever heard of anything so silly!! So only I can make use of the online system and pay via my Standard Bank account, but nobody else in my family can???? Really????
