Sassa urges grant clients to re-apply ‒ no automatic continuation

Covid-19 Social Relief of Distress grant recipients are urged to re-apply

Mpumalanga South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) is urging all R350 grant beneficiaries to re-apply for the R350 Covid-19 Social Relief of Distress grant.

Sassa Mpumalanga issued this statement after the Customer Care Unit received numerous enquiries from beneficiaries.

Clients assumed that automatically they will be in the payment cycle of April 2022 – March 2023.

The era of disaster terms and conditions regulations have been repealed.

New regulations have been published by the Minister of the Department of Social Development for new applications in this new normal era.

Those who are struggling to re-register on the website must make use of this WhatsApp number: 082 046 8553; it is active.

Beneficiaries who have already re-applied on the website: srd@sassa.gov.za must not make many applications, as it confuses the system and prolonging the verification and approval phase processes.

Applicants must ensure that their personal details are correctly captured and avoid donating personal details to scammers.

If they choose the cell phone payment option, they must Rica their cell phone numbers first to avoid disqualification or disapproval of the application.

For more information, contact the Customer Care toll-free number: 0800 60 10 11 or 013 574 9428/9363 from 08:00 – 16:00 during weekdays, Monday – Friday.
