# The South African Social Security Agency has acknowledged concerns raised by the Universal Basic Income Coalition regarding grant verification processes. SASSA says these checks align with legal requirements and aim to prevent fraud, especially where applicants fail to report income changes. Around 58-thousand payments were delayed, not suspended, pending review. SASSA urges affected beneficiaries to update their contact details and confirms that no grants will be cancelled without proper notice and opportunity for appeal.
