Since its founding in April 2005, the South African Social Security Agency, or Millions of South Africans, have significantly benefited from the vital work done by the organization known by its loving acronym, SASSA. The Department of Social Development (DSD) developed SASSA, which functions as a social welfare guardian angel, in response to the urgent need for a comprehensive social security system in South Africa. SASSA has been a pillar of support from the organization’s founding to the present (2023), ensuring that families and vulnerable persons have a safety net to rely on. The SASSA has been a symbol of optimism throughout history, growing from modest beginnings to a diverse organization that affects many people’s lives. srdsassa Its efficiency and reach have increased as it has adjusted to the constantly shifting requirements of South Africa’s heterogeneous populace. The goal of SASSA has remained constant with every year that has gone by: to improve the general well-being of the country’s people, lessen inequality, and alleviate poverty. As we examine SASSA’s history, it’s important to remember that, as of 2022, 46% of South Africans had received a social grant from the organization. This figure demonstrates how much influence SASSA has, which makes it an essential part of South Africa’s social fabric.

During the COVID-19 epidemic, SASSA launched the Social Relief Distress (SRD) R350 award. It attempts to accommodate people’s financial demands when they cannot provide for their fundamental necessities: eligibility determination, application processing, and payment distribution, which fall within the purview of SASSA. The SASSA’s SRD R350 award supports South Africa’s economic growth and social welfare. Those who apply for the award and who are unemployed or low-income families will get R350 per month in temporary financial help if they do not receive funding from the Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF).

OVERVIEW OF SRD R350 APPLICATION STATUS EXPECTED RESULTS: One of the following outcomes will appear when you check your SASSA SRD status. I’ll go over each result below, along with what it means and what has to be done. * Application Completed: This indicates that your SRD R350 grant application, or reapplication, has been finished. It will be reviewed each month before being granted. While this shows that you are getting closer to receiving payments, it does not ensure you will receive the grant funds. * Application Approved Status: Your SASSA grant application has been approved if you see “Approved Status.” The grant money will be awarded to you upon approval. You will receive approval notification via letter, email, or SMS. The funds can then be received via your bank account, a Post Office account, or a cash card, depending on your preference. * Application Status: If your SASSA status is Declined, it indicates that SASSA has denied your application because you did not satisfy the requirements. Additionally, SASSA will provide you with an explanation for their denial. * Application Status Pending: When an application is listed as “pending,” it indicates that SASSA has received it but needs additional time to evaluate and confirm the information before approving it. After they have completed their verifications, your status will be altered, and you will be informed of whether your grant has been approved or refused. * Identity Verification Failed: This indicates an issue with the identity verification process. SASSA could not verify your information against the Department of Home Affairs (DHA) databases. * Bank data Pending: Although SASSA has received your application or reapplication, you have not chosen a preferred payment method or supplied the banking data. You must enter your banking information on the SASSA website or select your preferred method (Cash Send or Bank). * Reapplication Pending Status: This indicates that your grant application for the SASSA R350 has not been renewed. You ought to use the SRD website to apply. Created in reaction to COVID-19, the SASSA R350 stipend was expanded to assist its fellow citizens in need. All citizens who are unemployed and in need must reapply for the award. * The status of the period pending is always indicated as a single month, for example, “period December pending.” It means that verifying your reapplication for that particular month is ongoing. Until the payment date is sent to you, you should frequently check your status for this month. * Period authorized Status: The authorized period is usually indicated for a particular month, for example, “January approved period.” It suggests that your application has been accepted for that specific month. Search for the “payday” box to view your payment date. The payment has not yet been processed if the field is empty. * Status of Period Declined: The period declined is usually displayed for a particular month, such as “period October declined.” This indicates that SASSA has rejected your application for that specific month for good reasons. You can use the website to request reconsideration if you believe the rationale is unjustified and you are qualified for the award. * Application Canceled Status: This indicates the termination of your grant. You can use the website to reinstate your funding if you so want. TYPES OF SASSA GRANTS: SASSA SRD R370: The SASSA SRD R370 Grant, also known as the Social Relief of Distress Grant, is awarded to jobless South Africans or asylum seekers residing inside South Africa’s borders and experiencing financial difficulties fulfilling their basic needs. Before October 2023, the monthly assistance amount was 350 Rand. Later, a SASSA official raised it to 370 Rand each month, and as of right now, the SASSA is awarding R370 SRD grants. SASSA LOANS: “Grant loans” and “social grant loans” are other terms for SASSA loans. The SASSA award beneficiaries get these loans from banks, financial institutions, and microlenders. Both the source of the loans and a direct participant in their provision are not SASSA. Because the lenders making these loans view your SASSA grant as a reliable source of income, they base their loan decision on the grant amount you get. This means you will not be eligible to receive the whole loan amount unless you demonstrate that your income can cover the loan balance through a monthly SASSA grant installment. SASSA CHILD SUPPORT GRANT: An equivalent Child Support award is given by SASSA to the primary caregiver of a child under the age of eighteen. If an adult who is 16 or older monitors and is responsible for the child’s welfare, they may act as a substitute caregiver. The allowance covers the family’s income shortfall. As a result, fundamental necessities for kids, including food, clothing, and education, are met. Foster parents, single parents, and other specific groups get the Child Support Grant. Family caregivers may use up to six grants to pay for expenses associated with children for whom they are not legally or familially liable. SASSA Child Grant Status Check SASSA DISABILITY GRANT: SASSA provides a variety of grants to assist persons in need. The SASSA Disability Grant is available from SASSA to help those in need who are disabled and unable to work. This stipend might assist disabled individuals in lessening their financial load and maintaining a respectable living level. GRANT IN AID: One of SASSA’s most helpful projects is grant in aid. Individuals who fulfill the requirements are eligible to receive the Grant in Aid for unexpected expenses such as paying for medical care or electricity bills. One of the fastest and most immediate forms of financial assistance offered by SASSA to anyone is Grant in Aid.

SASSA MEANS TEST: To ensure that only worthy people receive the grant, the Means Test computes the applicant’s financial situation, including their income, assets, and other economic criteria. Should the applicant’s assets or income exceed the SASSA means test criteria, they will not be eligible for the award. The means test requirements for each grant category vary to assess financial eligibility. Grants for the elderly, disabled, and veterans of war, for instance, are all awarded on a sliding scale; that is to say, the more private income you have, the less money you will receive in grants. A married person’s income and assets are determined jointly with their spouse. Whether they got married on communal land or not makes no difference. Assets and income are entirely dependent on single individuals. I covered each grant’s income and asset thresholds in this context. You may find out how much SASSA pays you by reading this page. To apply for the SASSA social grant, make sure you have read the text thoroughly and understand the means test requirements. The maximum income and asset criteria that will be in effect as of April 2023 are covered here. Remember that these figures fluctuate every year on April 1 or October 1. INCOME THRESHOLD FOR ALL SASSA GRANTS: Age, Disabilities, Aid, and War Veterans’ Grant: A single individual’s monthly income cannot exceed R8 070 (or R96 840 annually). The combined annual revenue of a married couple should not exceed R193 680 (or R16 140 a month). * Child Support Grant: A single person’s monthly income (or R60,000 annually) as the child’s primary caregiver should not exceed R5,000. The combined annual revenue of the married applicant (the child’s principal caretaker) and their spouse should not exceed R120 000 (or R10,000 per month). * Care Dependency Grant: A single parent’s or child’s primary caregiver’s monthly income cannot exceed R20 800 (or R249 600 annually). The combined annual revenue of the married applicant (parent or primary caregiver of the kid) and their spouse should not exceed R499 200 (or R41 600 per month). * Foster Child Grant: No means test for eligibility for a Foster Child Grant. The Social Relief of Distress Grant requires that your monthly income not exceed R624. * The asset threshold for all SASSA grants is R1 372 800. An individual cannot possess assets worth more than this amount. A married person’s combined assets with their spouse shouldn’t exceed R2 745 600. WHAT DOES THE SASSA MEANS TEST DEFINE AS INCOME? According to SASSA, the following are regarded as sources of income: * Receiving a gift from a private pension * Making money through farming or other business ventures * Getting financial support from loved ones or friends * Renting out a section of your home to generate income * payments for child support from a former spouse * Earning money through employment * leasing a home that you own * Reimbursement from additional sources, such as the Road Accident Fund (RAF) and the (UIF).

Remember that you may only pick up your SRD grant payment after the status check and after getting an SMS each month verifying that you paid. Three options are available to you for getting your money: 1. Direct Deposit of Grant Funds into Your Bank Account: If you have chosen a bank account as your payment method and submitted your account information with your SASSA application, the grant funds will be sent straight into your bank account.

Using Cash Payment Method: You must pick up your grant money in cash from the following SASSA-partnered retail locations or local Post Office branches (SAPO/Post Bank) if you failed to supply the bank information and do not own an SASSA card. * Pick n Pay * Shoprite * Boxer * Checkers * Usave * Spar Please take the following actions to withdraw grant funds from SASSA-selected retailers: 1. To prevent long lines, visit the SASSA-partnered store early in the morning with your Application ID and South African ID Card. 2. Inform the clerk that you would want to take out the grant money. 3. Give the cashier your ID card and application ID. 4. After confirming your information, they will give you the money and a receipt. For future reference, kindly store the receipt in a secure location. WHY SASSA STATUS FAILED: If your identity verification is unsuccessful, your SASSA status check is unsuccessful. This happens when the Department of Home Affairs (DHA) data and your details don’t match. You will need to update your SASSA online application and fix any errors to fix this problem. WHY SASSA STATUS DECLINED: The application was refused, or the SASSA Status Check was denied for a month due to the Means Test and the SASSA review procedure. This status may be applied to both new applicants and current beneficiaries if they fail to satisfy the Means Test standards. This evaluation looks at income levels and situational changes, such as a rise in your bank balance over R624. If you receive a decline notification, you can correct your SASSA Declined Grant application after reviewing the grounds for clarification. * Your assets and income levels are above the R624 minimum. * Benefits under UIF, NSFAS, or SARS are recorded with your ID. * The reason for your unemployment has changed. * The SASSA Means Test identifies a different source of income. * Your age does not meet the requirements for the sought award. WHEN SASSA R350 GRANT ENDS: President Cyril Ramaphosa announced the SASSA R350 award at a news conference in late 2022. Acknowledging its mandatory function in providing for the necessities of around 7 million people, he verified the continuation of this significant aid. This is excellent news for individuals who rely on the R350 stipend to pay for their basic living needs. With this extension, the SASSA R350 award will now be guaranteed until March 2024. Extensions may be possible if the government works hard to acquire extra funding. HOW TO CHECK SASSA BALANCE? For online balance queries, you can use your bank app to view the status of your SASSA balance. Applicants who have updated their bank information for the SASSA grant may be eligible.
