  • Did you get a notification that your application was rejected?
  • Do you disagree with that decision?

If you answered “YES” to all 3 questions, you may, within 30 days but not exceeding 90 days, appeal SASSA’s decision to the Independent Tribunal for Social Assistance Appeals (ITSAA). To do so, follow these steps:

  • Double-check that the information you provided to SASSA, which is reflected on the SRD DSD Appeal Electronic Platform is complete and correct.
  • Where necessary, update your contact information by clicking on this link. This is very important if your appeal is successful. If your appeal is successful the Independent Tribunal will direct SASSA to initiate the payment of the Covid-19 SRD directly to you and accordingly need to have your correct contact information.
  • After updating your information on the link provided, if applicable, click “Save” and thereafter you will be automatically redirected back to the SRD DSD Appeal website to continue to lodge your appeal.
  • Appellants or their proxy will have to confirm that they have read and accepted the clauses in the Declaration and Consent Documents.
  • Click “Submit” and look out for the confirmation message on the page that your application was submitted successfully.
