Some R350 grant applicants have not been satisfied with the reasons why their grant applications were rejected by Sassa, especially with the recent extension of the grant.
President Cyril Ramaphosa recently announced the extension of the Social Relief Of Distress (SRD) R350 grant for 12 months.
The announcement made by the president means that more than 10 million individuals, who are currently benefiting from the SRD grant, will continue to receive relief.
However, more than 3 million people who applied for the SRD grant were rejected from receiving the crucial relief.
The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) provides reasons to applicants explaining why their grant applications were rejected. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION.
Sassa has explained that there are ways to raise concerns if clients feel aggrieved by their application outcome.
“Those who feel aggrieved by their application outcome should either call 0800 60 10 11 or utilize the SRD website: https://srd.sassa.gov.za with their complaints in order to access the resource mechanism,” said Sassa.
