Mistakes to Avoid While Applying for SASSA Grant
Browser Caching: many people while applying or filling out their application form for SASSA ignore the importance of clearting their browser cache. This looks very normal but it can create serious problems like wrong information in your application.
If we don’t clear out our browser caching before iterating with the application, sometimes your browser auto-fills many empty fields with the details that were saved in your browser caching, so avoid this.
Unaware of Grant: it’s a very common issue seen in applications of many applicants of SASSA that they aren’t even aware of what SASSA grant they are applying for. It is very important to know what SASSA grant you want to be granted.
Do you do proper research before applying for any grant, and do notice the criteria of that grant and match to yourself whether you’re suitable for that grant or not.
Incomplete Information: many people don’t even provide their surname while applying for SASSA, they think only first name is enough for verification, but this is not the case. Always provide your full name with 100% correct spellings.
Also, don’t provide information incomplete like national ID number and phone number, always keep in mind that all such information is case-sensitive which means even a single spelling mistake can throw you into a problem related to your application.
Confusion in Grant: there is a great number of people who think that SASSA old age grant and SASSA old age homes for pensioners are similar things. These are two different things and can only be claimed following their own processes. Be aware that you will not be granted an old age home in the same grant.
Choosing Un Authorized Bank: many people aren’t aware of SASSA payment methods, always choose the bank for receiving your grant money from SASSA that is only officially announced by SASSA. You can’t choose any other bank than SASSA has told.
Choosing Agent: many people due to illiteracy or some other reasons don’t want to apply on their own so they choose a third person as an unauthorized agent who applies on their behalf, on previous records it has created problems for many applicants.
It’s always advised to complete the whole application process on your own to save yourself from scams, and do your proper research on grants and the application process before actually performing any step toward your grant.
Non-Transparency: never try to trick or fool the SASSA authentication processes, it is advised to always be transparent in providing all your details. It is seen that people who are transparent in their whole application process get SASSA grant approval on the first try.
