SA Social Security Agency (Sassa)
Sassa announced the reconsideration option late last year after many social media users flooded its pages to complain that their applications were cancelled without explanation.
Payment announcement
The South African Post Office has announced the payment dates for R350 grant recipients to pick up their grant at their local Post Office.
Reconsideration Notice
This is to avoid complications with applications that could result in recipients not being paid.
Beneficiaries can collect their payments at post offices by using the ID number system which determines payment dates according to the last three digits of beneficiaries’ identity numbers.
#1 “Clients who get married or change their surname at the department of home affairs are urged to update Sassa of the change.
#2 “Sassa validates the client’s information with the department of home affairs monthly. If details do not match, the application for the period may be declined,” said Sassa.
The dates below are applicable to the Sapo payout system. Beneficiaries can obtain their grants as soon as they receive confirmation of payment from Sassa.
