• Social grants are funds provided by the government to needy South African citizens. SASSA manages social grants in South Africa. Social grants are given to people who are at risk of poverty and require government assistance in order to raise their standard of living. The elderly, people with disabilities, and parents with young children are frequently among these. Any person requesting a social grant must be a South African citizen, a legal permanent resident, or a refugee (proof of such status must be provided). Furthermore, they must be South African citizens.

What is a means test?

• Some social grants, including child support, disability, care dependency, and social relief of distress, are subject to a “means test.” The means test determines your eligibility to apply for a social grant; SASSA will assess your income and assets to determine your eligibility. The means test determines your eligibility for a grant designed for those who do not have enough resources to support themselves.

Care dependency allowance

Parents who work full-time and have disabled children may be eligible for care dependency grants. How much money will be distributed as part of this grant?

• R1 860 per child, per month.

How do you know if you qualify for the grant?

• To be eligible for the care dependency grant, the child must be under the age of 18 and be permanently disabled, as determined by a medical officer. If you’re married, both you and your spouse must meet the means test’s minimum eligibility requirements. The following are some articles that will assist you with your Sassa application.
