Social Grant Reviews, Certification, and Beneficiary Biometric Enrollment.

Mr. Mathe from SASSA explains Social Grant Reviews, Certification, and Beneficiary Biometric Enrollment as part of efforts to verify that grant beneficiaries still meet the eligibility requirements. The review process looks at changes in income, employment, household circumstances, and other factors that may affect whether a person still qualifies for assistance. He also outlines the certification requirements for beneficiaries who are called in for review, including providing a valid ID, proof of income or an affidavit if unemployed, recent bank statements, proof of residence, and any relevant supporting documents depending on the type of grant. SASSA says these checks help prevent fraud and ensure that social assistance goes to the right people. On biometric enrollment, SASSA has introduced fingerprint or facial recognition verification for beneficiaries as an added security measure. The process is designed to strengthen identity verification and protect the grant system, with beneficiaries advised to complete enrollment at SASSA offices when required. Heart to Heart
