Applying for SASSA grants during lockdown has been made more accessible through online applications and other measures to minimize physical contact and promote social distancing.

To apply for a SASSA grant during lockdown, you can visit the SASSA website and follow the application guidelines provided. Alternatively, you can call the SASSA toll-free number on 0800 60 10 11 for assistance with the application process.

During the application process, you will be required to provide personal information, proof of income, and proof of residence, among other documents. If you are unable to submit these documents electronically, SASSA may make arrangements for you to deliver the documents to their offices or send a representative to collect them from your home.

After submitting your application, you can check the status of your application online or by contacting SASSA through their toll-free number. Once your application is approved, you will receive a notification on the payment method that has been selected for you.

It is important to note that the application process may take longer than usual during lockdown due to the increased volume of applications. However, SASSA has assured applicants that they are working to process the applications as quickly as possible to ensure that those in need receive the assistance they require.

Overall, applying for a SASSA grant during lockdown is possible through online applications and other measures put in place to ensure that the application process is safe and accessible for everyone.
