The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently going to the Fernie 2 Community Hall in Mpuluzi to render solutions for the community.

SASSA might be rendering providers like new social grant applications, change of payment method, client care enquiries, together with the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.

In an announcement, the agency said it really is alarmed concerning the high quantity of people counting on social grants for survival.
“The purpose from the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out into a superior number of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.

“This really is a result of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no fully functional office committed to service the area daily. The SRD services stage developed for intervention encounters a large influx of likely beneficiaries, that makes sassa status check it hard for that office to attend to all people who check out a service point.

“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise extra means to empower the servicing of all buyers and raise use of Social SRD Assistance companies,” the agency said.
