The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) provides various grants to support vulnerable individuals in South Africa.
One of these grants is the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant, which offers financial assistance to unemployed individuals living in South Africa.
What is the Meaning of UIF Registered?
If your SRD grant application status reads “UIF Registered,” it means that SASSA has found your eligibility for UIF payments.
UIF stands for “Unemployment Insurance Fund.”
About UIF (Unemployment Insurance Fund)
The Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) operates under the auspices of the Department of Labour and is governed by both the Unemployment Insurance Act of 2001 (UI Act) and the Unemployment Insurance Contributions Act of 2002 (UIC Act).
Why is My SRD Grant Status Showing “UIF Registered”?
Your SRD grant status may show “UIF Registered” for the following reasons:
- The applicant is already receiving UIF payments.
- The applicant is eligible for UIF payments but not receiving them.
- The applicant has applied for UIF benefits but not received the funds.
What to Do If Your SRD Grant Status is UIF Registered?
The only solution for this status is to appeal to the Independent Tribunal for Social Assistance Appeals (ITSAA).
They will verify your application status and allow you to submit the application for reconsideration.
