Since January 2019, workers in South Africa have been entitled to a minimum wage of R20 per hour, which translates to around R3,500, based on a 40-hour working week.
The new rules apply to all workers in South Africa, with the exception of National Defence Force, National Intelligence Agency and Secret Service employees, as well as volunteers.
Three other groups have different minimum wage standards. Farm workers are now entitled to a minimum wage of R18, domestic employees to R15, and workers on expanded public works programmes to R11.
Employers in South Africa can apply to be made exempted from the minimum wage for up to a year, though at this stage it's unclear as to the circumstances of when an exemption may be granted. If a company fails to pay the minimum wage (without an exemption being granted), they'll face significant fines.
The wage will be reviewed each year to assess whether it's having the desired effect on alleviating poverty and reducing wage inequality.

Hello, Diko -

You will need to contact the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS, South Africa) directly.

This is the link to the NSFAS home page:
http://www.nsfas.org.za/content/

I suggest you read this article:

Note: Fixya.com is not the best website for asking questions about financial aid for university in South Africa or any other South Africa related questions on education. Fixya.com is intended as a website for asking and answering questions on how to go about REPAIRING _THINGS_.

Best wishes.

Hello -

I hope I am correct in thinking you need the help of an adviser at the University of South Africa in applying for a grant (a bursary?) from the South African National Scheme Student Financial Aid Scheme?

First, Fixya.com is intended to be a website for asking and answering questions about how to repair _things_.

Second, your question landed in the Fixya category for Computers & Internet and not Higher Education or Financial Aid.

After making those points, you will need to go the the UNISA web site This is the link to the home page:
http://www.unisa.ac.za/sites/corporate/default

On the home page you should see the MyUNISA link, the portal for UNISA students. There is also a Contact Us link near the upper right of the home page, which you can choose to obtain a telephone number to speak with a real person.

Also, this is the link to the NSFAS home page:
http://www.nsfas.org.za/content/
Scroll down that page and look in the lower right corner of the page to find telephone numbers you can call.

Best wishes.

Hello, Esme -

You are asking about the South African Social Security Agency and a grant for widows, aren't you? I am answering from the USA.

This is the link to the SASSA Head Office and Regional Contacts web page:
http://www.sassa.gov.za/index.php/contact-us/head-office-and-regional-contacts

If you scroll down the page you will find an email address for Grants Enquiries.

Note: Fixya.com is intended to be a website for asking and answering questions about repairing _things_ and not for South African government programs.

Best wishes.

Um. It depends a lot on who/what you're applying for Financial Aid to. If it's a particular school, you're probably really pushing it. Call them directly and ask. Be prepared to possibly spending Thanksgiving digging up financial and bank records and paying an expedite fee to the institution.

If it's a general organization that grants scholarships or grants, or loans, you'll have to look at their timeline. It may be that you can qualify, but not get your aid until later on, in which case, you may need to talk to the school about billing or financing options until you can get your aid.

Good Luck!
