sassa old age grant online application 2023-2024
You can apply for a grant to help you get through your senior years. The older person’s award is offered to anybody over 60. This benefit was once known as the old-age pension.
How can you know whether you meet the requirements?
Candidates need to meet the following criteria:
-
It is necessary to be a citizen of South Africa, a refugee, or a permanent resident.
-
The petitioner and the child must both be citizens of South Africa.
-
Must be 60 years or older.
-
The applicant cannot be receiving any other social assistance.
-
The means test must be passed by both the candidate and his or her spouse.
-
The applicant cannot reside or receive care in a state facility.
-
The applicant must provide an identity document with a 13-digit barcode.
How much will you be paid?
You will be paid a maximum of R1 980 per month. If you are over the age of 75, you will receive R2 000.
How are you going to get paid?
One of the following methods is how the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) will pay you for the grant:
Cash deposited into your bank or Postbank account electronically at a certain pay point on a specific day (the bank may charge you for the service) (e.g. old age home).
Note: If you are unable to collect the funds personally, you may designate a procurator or provide someone power of attorney to do so at the SASSA office.
When will your grant be evaluated?
The ultimate say in the grant evaluation will go to SASSA. This determination will be made on the basis of your declared income from the time you applied for the grant. You will get notice three months in advance of the review date or the day on which a life certificate (evidence that you are still alive) is necessary. If you get your money from a bank, an institution, or a procurator, you need to fill out a life certificate every year at the SASSA offices.
Your grant is revocable when?
-
if you refuse to comply when your grant is evaluated
-
when you conduct fraud or make false statements about yourself
-
or if there was an error when your grant was authorized.
