“irp5 registered means that the system has picked up an alternative income from your details.” IRP5 is a document that is also known as an employee’s tax certificate which outlines the employer/employee’s related incomes, taxes and the related deductions at the end of each year.
If you check your R350 grant application status and it tells you that you were rejected because you’re IRP5 registered, this means that databases are picking you up as someone who pays tax which means you’re receiving an income.
You could also be seeing that you receive money through UIF which would then leave you to not qualify for the grant.
This is of course an issue as the main requirement to receive the SRD grant is to be unemployed and not be receiving any other incomes, grants or payments.
However, many South Africans who get this message have not worked for ages and are left confused.
Paseka Letsatsi, Spokesperson for SASSA, explained:
Unfortunately, if your name appears there, we as the South African Security Agency do not necessarily expertise of what UIF has or perhaps at Home Affairs … we cannot argue.
Letsatsi then encourages people to follow appeal processes so that they can attend to these issues.
