Is your UIF registration the reason your R350 grant application was denied? What you can do if your application is turned down is listed below.

Your Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant application may have been rejected for a number of reasons, but the Unemployment Insurance Fund is one of the most frequent ones (UIF).

The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) urges applicants to file an appeal if their SRD grant application is turned down because they have a UIF registration. Here is a step-by-step tutorial on how to submit an R350 grant appeal if you are one of those affected.

Visiting the Sassa Appeals website, perform the following tasks:

Enter ID number
Enter telephone number
Lodge appeal

Following the submission of your appeal, SASSA will confirm your employment status with the UIF and let you know the result.

Additionally, you must validate your current application once via the WhatsApp number: 082 046 8553 or the Sassa website.

Additionally, SASSA has recommended applicants seeking assistance in this topic to call them at their Toll-Free number, 0800 60 10 11, rather than going to their labor centers.

This is how to file an appeal if your 350 SRD grant application was rejected due to UIF registration.

For candidates whose 350 SRD grant has been rejected owing to UIF registration, SASSA has established a process for filing an appeal. This is how you handle your appeal rather than visiting the labor department.

Visit https://srd.sassa.gov.za and fill out the following form:

Identity Number or Department of Home Affairs Refugee permit number
Name and Surname as captured in the Identity Document
Gender and Disability
Contact details – Cell phone number
Residential Address

As your information will be shared with other organizations and financial institutions, including SARS and banks, you will also be required to sign a statement and permission form attesting to its accuracy. A thorough declaration and consent statement is available on the website.
Additionally, applicants must use the Sassa website or WhatsApp number: 082 046 8553 to confirm their current application.
Following the filing of the appeal, SASSA will check your employment status with the UIF and let you know how it turned out.

Additionally, applicants are advised to get in touch with SASSA at their Toll-Free number, 0800 60 10 11, rather than visiting labor centers, for assistance with this issue.
