The South African Social Security Agency has blamed an administration issue, for its failure to pay the R350 social relief of distress grant for the past two months.
10,6-million people applied for the grant in April.
SASSA's hoping to make payouts by mid-June.
Senior Policy Specialist, Neil Coleman, elaborates...

#ANC #President_Ramaphosa We can't tolerate what is happening with our SRD grands sometimes they skip the payments and now two months has passed and yet some like me opened a small businesses with the SRD grands and we ran out of stock since April and we have families to feed while SA permanent employees are feeding there families and unemployed ones are waiting for the SASSA agency to send the SRD grands its not fair

Has nothing to do with Departments those are just faces eating change... Monopoly Capital won't just take and move R3.6 Billion in a month with out signing the Real looting contracts. They could have just revived PostBank as Post Office has 43 to 44 000 premises but banks blocked that license too...

Why isn't this being discussed more? "Paying the right social grant, to the right person, at the right time and place, NJALO!" Really, Njalo? This is still their slogan. So, since millions of people have been left stranded, some of whom would have received help or assistance from family or friends, those people will now be declined after waiting two months because Sassa will claim they have an alternative income, promising something to the people and then making them wait, my question is what do they expect them to eat during those two months? I mean, it's completely revolting! because they would have little choice but to seek alternative options, such as through family and friends, and yet, after doing so, they would be disappointed, after being declined, do you realize that this is not just psychologically, but also emotionally harmful? As some might argue, before they had this grant, they knew they had nothing, and there's no doubt that it has aided millions of people, but not knowing if you'll be able to get something to eat or not, from this waiting is, in my opinion, is inhumane, and what's worse is the lack of communication, I mean, people are poor, but they aren't stupid, and communicating with them to let them know what's going on would have been much better at least. But instead with this grant, it's been one complication after another, and as they say, mid-June, it's next week, on Wednesday the 15th. How are they going to do that when not a single individual has been approved for April, let alone May and June, and verification, as we've learned from them, takes time because there is no defined time frame on when this will be completed? So, if they only begin accepting people before July, they can still declare, "We began approving in mid-June." It's evident that meeting that goal won't be achievable; Sassa is notorious for setting deadlines that they can't fulfil, then they're twisting it with a new deadline that they won't be able to fulfill yet again, this delay was done to reduce the number of people who received the grant, at least for those months when they would be turned down for alternative income. I don't believe that people would just not do anything to feed themselves and their family during the time that they forced people to wait. It's a ruse. But then again their slogan is “paying the right social grant, to the right person, at the right time and place, NJALO!” They aren't doing any of that with the R350's, especially the last part of ALWAYS! Which it has been months now, which is entirely stupid and unfair to everyone receiving this grant. I can only image if and when it becomes a basic Income grant, as the process will still be the same, because they'd have to authenticate and do this means test, there'd be no way of knowing when one should expect payment. My issue is who are they relieving from distress? With what's going on, it appears like they're causing even more anxiety, I don't think it's a relief for applicants to have to wait months for a response, and yet their slogan says this "Paying the right social grant, to the right person, at the right time and place, NJALO!” ok that one really bothers me. I wont even start with #Sassacares. R350 is the never-minded grant. Hopefully something is done because those millions of people are already hurting and are being forced and expected to suffer even more in order to continue receiving this money, some of which have others depending on them as well, so the number is much more than 10 million people. Making this no longer a social relief of distress grant.
