SASSA: Rejected? A social grant can be rejected after an unsuccessful means test.

The means test assesses your income and other details.

Each month, grants are rejected or approved.

If your grant has been wrongfully rejected, contact SASSA for more information. Send a message within 30 days and complain in writing.

Sometimes assessments are incorrect.
