Department of labor Pretoria Nana Sita

I've been on maternity leave since 1 July 2023. I tried submitting my uif documents at the Nana Sita department of labor Pretoria and was unsuccessful until I gave birth. Following that they advised me that I can have someone submit on my behalf so while I was home taking care of the baby, I asked my sister to submit for me, she managed to submit my documents at the Orlando department of labor in Soweto. When I went back to the Pretoria branch to check how far my claim is going, I was not happy with how I was treated. On arrival I enquired at the front desk where to go to make a follow up on claims so I was directed to the 1st floor. I found a queue on the corridor and asked one of the guys on the que if that was the que for enquiries, I was then told to ask the guy who works with uif claims who was taking information from the people queueing on the passage, I then tried to ask the guy and he told me to join the queue so I joined the queue. When I got to the counter after what had been over 2 hours of waiting for service, I was turned back by the same guy who told me to go make an enquiry at Soweto since submission of documents was done there.

Adding to that, the year is almost over and I still haven't received my money, the last time I went to the Orlando office, I was advised I'd receive my money in 2 days, it's end of November and still haven't received my uif claim. How is it that it's simple for them to debit this money from our payslip every month without fail but it's such a hassle to get paid when you need it.
