******** UIF!

I lost my job last year November and app**** for my benefits same month but only received my first payment in February this year.

The second payment was in March and I haven't received any payments ever since even after applying every month and my applications being rejected without a valid reason.

I have been to the Soweto Labour center ever since my payment were stopped but up until today I am yet to meet a knowledgeable enough to assist me but they always take down my ID number and claim they are sending it for payment but until today I am yet to receive payment, its been 7 months now and it is disgusting especially because this is my money, now I am made to wait almost a year to 've able to access my money whilst unemployed people like myself are getting social grants for free and the grant system seems to be more seemless than the system used for people who are forced to save money while employed for rainy days, the rain has caught me for 7 months now and my umbrella is seating somewhere with an *********** department who cannot even explain as to why.

My last application was on September 14th (online) and the status has been "sent to paymaster". October 20th the pay master is still seating with my application.

It is sad and I hope that at least I will get assistance of some sort.

Thank you
