What if I Don’t Have My ID?
Life happens, and sometimes IDs get lost or misplaced. Here’s what you can do:
- Affidavit and Commissioner of Oaths: If you can’t find your ID, you’ll need to complete a sworn statement on a SASSA form. This affidavit needs to be done in front of a Commissioner of Oaths, someone authorized to witness oaths and affirmations
- Sworn Statement from a Respected Person: Don’t have access to a Commissioner of Oaths? No problem! A sworn statement signed by a reputable person in your community can also work.
