Those in need can receive social assistance from the South African government. In South Africa, social handouts are governed by the SASSA. Those who need government support to raise their standard of life and who risk sliding into poverty may be eligible for social grants. The elderly, those with impairments, and parents of young children are frequently included. You must be a South African citizen, an approved permanent resident, or a refugee in order to qualify for a social grant (proof of such status must be provided). They must also be citizens of South Africa.

A “means test” is used to a number of social benefits, including child support, disability, care dependence, and social suffering alleviation. Based on your income and assets, SASSA will utilize the means test to assess if you qualify for a social grant. The means test determines your eligibility for a grant designed for people who cannot afford to live independently.
