Can Another Person Make an Application for a Social Grant on Behalf of an Applicant?

If the application cannot be made by the care-giver or beneficiary because they are too old or sick, a friend or family member can bring a letter from them and a doctor’s note saying why the primary care-giver cannot visit the office themselves. A home visit may then be arranged. The Agency can also appoint a Procurator for this person. (See: Can another person fetch an applicant’s grant?)
