About Migration Network
Liza Stroebel worked for the Minister of Home Affairs in South Africa for several years. She moved to George in 1994 and was employed at the Home Affairs Regional office for 9 years as supervisor, of which 3 years were as Acting Regional Representative and 2 years as Office Manager. She was, inter alia, a member of the Regional Committee who approved/rejected temporary residence applications and conducted Permanent Residence interviews for the Immigration Selection Board.
She has shown herself as an outstanding officer since her appointment at the Department of Home Affairs and received Cum Laude in terms of the former Immigration Act, Act 96 of 1991.
During the beginning of 2003, she attended a training course on the new Immigration Legislation, Immigration Act 13 of 2002, and again received Cum Laude. During December 2002, she was invited by a reputable Cape Town immigration company to become part of their team, and made history by opening the first ever private immigration company to set up offices in the Southern Cape and became the sole proprietor of the George office on 1 April 2003.
She achieved such success that she decided to ‘fly solo’ as from 1 October 2003 under her own company, called ‘Immigration Southern Cape’. Unfortunately, her business partner and husband Mike was diagnosed with cancer and she sold her business on 30 September 2010 to spend quality time with him until his death. After a period of mourning, she decided to get back into South African Immigration and started Migration Network during November 2011.
With many years of experience in the corporate world prior to entering the civil service, as well as several years in the Department of Home Affairs, she is able to render the highest quality service.
She has been awarded Business Woman of the Year for two consecutive years in the small business category by the South African Council for Business Women in 2006 and 2007.
