SASSA Reconsideration

SASSA reconsideration allows declined SASSA grant applicants to request their applications be reviewed again by the South Africa Social Assistance and Security Agency (SASSA). This process is a lifesaver for anyone who believes their social grant application and SRD R350 application was unfairly rejected or that their circumstances have changed since they first applied.

SASSA Reconsideration

You can apply for SASSA Reconsideration online and this process is simple. You need to submit your reconsideration application by providing your ID number, application ID or reference number to have your declined grant reconsidered through the Department of Social Development Republic of South Africa. This method works for all declined grants including SRD reconsideration by following these steps.

  1. To apply for SASSA reconsideration, visit DSD website https://srd.dsd.gov.za/appeals/appeal.
  2. Enter your 13-digit national ID digits in the given field of the South African ID Number of Applicant.
  3. Provide your cell phone contact details in the given field of Phone Number used to Submit your application.
  4. To verify your identity click on the “Send Pin” to send a PIN code for your phone.
  5. You will receive the SASSA OTP Code that you need to enter in the PIN box.
  6. After entering the code you can approach the reconsideration page.
  7. Select the month for which you want to apply for reconsideration and provide your reasons for the declined grant reconsideration.
  8. Submit your reconsideration application and wait for SASSA to respond to your request.

After submitting your application, you can expect to wait for the SASSA review process to be completed, which takes up to 90 working days. During this waiting period, you will be required to provide supporting documentation relevant to your grant type.

For example, SRD R350 grant applicants must be jobless and needy, and if you’re applying for a Disability grant or Care Dependency grant, you may need to provide a medical test. For Children grants, you’ll need to submit an affidavit. Similarly, for Old Age and War Veterans grant applicants, assets and income reports may be required.

SASSA Reconsideration Status Check

It is crucial for applicants to Check SASSA Reconsideration Status online after successfully applying for reconsideration application. This process ensures that you’ll be informed as soon as your grant is reviewed and approved within the 90-day maximum processing timeline for reconsiderations.

  1. To check your SASSA Reconsideration Status, visit the SASSA Website at https://sassacheck.com/
  2. Select the first tab for “SASSA Status Check Online.”
  3. Enter your South African ID and Phone Number to request your reconsideration status.
  4. Press the “Check Now” button to view your SASSA reconsideration status.

It is important to check status of your reconsideration application after submission. Your status check result will show which month your declined grant was reconsidered and how much SASSA has paid. This is officially displayed in the SASSA system with your unique App ID, which is linked to your grant application.

In the meantime, if your SASSA reconsideration pending for your approved SRD reconsideration application or if you haven’t received SASSA payment dates. You can call SASSA complaints department at 0800601011 to investigate the issue further and get information on when you can expect to receive grant payment. You will need to provide your reconsideration Application ID to look up your details.
