I want to immigrate from South Africa to UK and no one can tell me how to go about doing it.?

I live in South Africa and have ALOT of family in UK, but some people say I can live with them, others say no. Can someone please tell me how to get residence in UK. I'm 20 years old and just finished studying. I've called travel agents and immigration consultants here but they can't tell me. I'd really like to go soon. . . thanks!

You might be able to get a visa based on UK ancestry, if one of your grandparents was born in the UK. Otherwise, you have no special rights.

As a South African citizen, you can also come as a Working Holidaymaker for two years.

tell them you are a terrorist.
we like giving terrorists homes and cars and free money.
Seems to me Chimplad is right.
flush your passport down the toilet, claim your a refugee, and the UK will give you free housing, benefits and a healh care. you dont need to speak English, or work, as you will be helping our economy - one day all nations will see such benefits...
Unless you have grandparents who were born in UK you do not qualify for a visa. You can as someone said before, get a work visa for 2 years but only until you are 27 years old.

I have a problem that I came here with an ancestral visa ( my father was a Brit but not born here, my grandfather was born in London) I have lived here since 1976 and have naturalised years ago and even though I am British, my daughter who is over 18 cannot get a visa to work here.( she lives in Cape Town)

That is why I get angry when the other idiots on this site say things like just come over and see the pavements paved with gold. When I came over I already owned my house,I had my bank statements showing a healthy balance and they still stamped my visa that I was not allowed access to public funds. Not that I wanted it.
