Please Note:
All information will be electronically available, eliminating the need for document uploads. Make sure you provide SASSA with your mobile number, which we can use to reach you for application status updates.
If SASSA declines your application, you have the right to appeal their decision. You can accomplish this by submitting an appeal to the Department of Social Development for each month in which they reject your application. The notification of your application’s rejection will include instructions for initiating the appeal process. Neglecting to request an appeal for each declined month will result in upholding the initial decision.
