If your Application for a Sassa Grant Reinstatement was Denied, Take this Action

The SASSA gives recipients of the SRD (R370) grant the option to reactivate their grant if they cancel it because their financial situation has improved or because of an administrative error.

After cancellation, a person can reapply and receive the grant benefits from SASSA if they lose their employment or experience financial difficulties for any other reason. You must meet the requirements for grant eligibility and submit a clear justification for your request, backed by relevant documentation, to reinstate the SRD grant. Both the SASSA office and the official website can be used to complete the reinstatement procedure.

The restored SRD (R370) application may take SASSA 7 to 14 days (or even 90 days) to assess, depending on the volume of applications submitted. SRD grant payments are issued starting when the reinstatement application is submitted. An SMS informing applicants of the approval or rejection of their reinstatement request for an SRD grant will be sent to them.

The Request for Reinstatement of Sassa Grant was Denied:

If the SASSA rejects your request for reinstatement, you can submit an appeal.

Here is a thorough procedure to help you with the appeal:

1. Before filing an appeal, find out if your application was turned down. Check Your Application Status. You can check online, call the SASSA hotline, or go to the closest office to accomplish this.
2. Obtain an Appeal Form and Fill It Out: To obtain an appeal form, stop by the SASSA office closest to you or obtain one online. Fill out the form and explain why you think the rejection was wrong.
3. Acquire supplementary supporting documentation: Get fresh or extra papers that strengthen your case. This might include updated income statements, health evaluations, or other pertinent paperwork.
4. Send in Your Appeal: Visit the SASSA office where you first applied and bring the required paperwork to file your appeal. Ensure you file your appeal within ninety days of learning about the refusal.
5. Await the Appeal’s Outcome: Your appeal will be reviewed by an impartial tribunal, which may require sixty to ninety days. An SMS with the results will be sent to you.
6. What to Do Next If the Appeal is Denied: The judgment is generally final, although you can ask the SASSA office for an explanation if the appeal is denied. A year may pass before you may reapply.

You must provide a compelling case supported by much evidence to reverse the original ruling. You should contact SASSA’s anti-fraud hotline if you have any questions or concerns about any malpractice that may arise throughout the appeals procedure.
