SASSA says it is working on an appeal system for the aggrieved applicants of the R350 social grant

SAfm — The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) says it is working on an appeal system for the aggrieved applicants of the R350 social grant. This follows complaints of lack of clarity in the criteria followed by the agency in approving or rejecting applications. Frustrated unemployed South Africans took to social media complaining that they have been declined the grant despite meeting the requirements to qualify. While some applications are still pending - a month after applying, others have been rejected on claims of other sources of income.We spoke to SASSA CEO, Busisiwe Memela-Khambule.
