SASSA Application | South African Social Security Agency Application | See Details On SASSA Application Below:

SASSA Application | Applications for a SASSA Grant can be done in 2 ways: at any in-person SASSA office or online via the SASSA services website. To find out about both application methods, keep reading.

APPLYING FOR A SASSA GRANT IN PERSON

To apply in person, you will need to visit a SASSA office close to you. If you are unable to visit the SASSA office yourself, due to being too sick, old or disabled, you may have a procurator (family member or friend) apply for you. They should bring a letter from you authorizing the application.

The application form is available at the SASSA office and must be completed in the presence of a SASSA officer. A SASSA officer will be able to assist you or your appointed person, to complete the application form if you or they are unable to do so.

After the application form has been completed in full, you will receive a dated stamped receipt, with the name of the SASSA official who assisted in your application. You will need to keep your receipt as proof of application. The application process is FREE.

APPLYING FOR A SASSA GRANT ONLINE

If you are applying for a Care Dependency Grant, Child Support Grant, Foster Child Grant, Disability Grant, Older Persons Grant or Grant-In-Aid, you may apply in person at any SASSA office, or you may online via the SASSA services website (carry on reading as we explain both methods of application below). If you would like to apply for the SRD grant, visit the SRD Grant application page.

Please note the following before you apply:

• Make sure you have a cell phone (which will be used for verification of your account) and an email address (where you will receive notifications from SASSA).
• If you are unable to apply yourself (due to sickness, old age or illiteracy), you may have someone you trust apply on your behalf – this person is called a Procurator.
