The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently checking out the Fernie two Group Hall in Mpuluzi to render expert services to your community.

SASSA will be rendering companies including new social grant applications, change of payment method, client care enquiries, plus the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.

In a press release, the agency explained it is alarmed about the substantial number of people relying on social grants for survival.
“The intention of your Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out into a significant number of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.

“This is certainly because of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there is no entirely functional office devoted to service the area on a daily basis. The services level developed for intervention activities a substantial influx of prospective beneficiaries, which makes it challenging for your office to attend to all people who go to a read more service point.

“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise more resources to help the servicing of all website prospects and raise use of Social Assistance expert services,” the agency said.
