The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently traveling to the Fernie 2 Community Hall in Mpuluzi to render companies into the community.
SASSA is going to be rendering solutions such as new social grant applications, change of payment method, consumer treatment enquiries, as well as the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In a press release, the agency stated it can be alarmed with regards to the substantial range of people relying on social grants for survival.
“The aim in the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out into sassa status check a significant quantity of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“This really is due to lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there is no thoroughly functional office dedicated to service the area each status sassa day. The company stage made for intervention experiences a large inflow of opportunity beneficiaries, that makes here it tough to the office to attend to all people who take a look at a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise more resources to allow the servicing of all consumers and enhance use of Social Assistance products and services,” the agency said.
