SASSA has arranged a way to appeal for applicants whose 350 SRD grant has been declined due to UIF registration. You can process your appeal instead of visiting the labor department.
According to sassacheckapp.com the best time to make SASSA appeal is right after rejection, if you are going through rejection, make sure you appeal first before you go for a reapply which can be performed multiple time with improved requirements.
You must carefully go through the objection letter that SASSA sends you. In this letter, you will know the potential reasons why your application was rejected by authorities. When making an appeal, you must be very careful about the mistakes you made in the previous application.
If your appeal continues to decline, you can wait a month or two to reapply, but make sure you reapply from zero with proper research and better requirements and document management.
According to previous SASSA application data, the more transparent you are in showing your personal details and information, the higher the chances of application approval, so always keep this factor in mind whenever you are appealing or applying from scratch for a grant.
Visit https://srd.sassa.gov.za and provide the following information:
- Identity Number or Department of Home Affairs Refugee permit number
- Name and Surname as captured in the Identity Documents
- Gender and Disability
- Contact details - Cell phone number
- Residential Address
You will also have to sign a declaration and consent form confirming the validity of the information you have provided, as it will be shared with other organizations and financial institutions such as SARS and banks. A detailed declaration and consent document is available on the website.
Applicants must also confirm their existing application via the Sassa website or WhatsApp at 082 046 8553.
Once the appeal is lodged, SASSA will verify your employment status with the UIF and communicate the outcome.
Applicants are also encouraged to contact SASSA on their Toll-Free number 0800 60 10 11 and not to visit labour centres for assistance.
