If an applicant had already applied for a community care grant but lacks the money to pay their rent advance after moving to another residential estate or locality, then they can be availed with crisis loans, though on short term basis.
To be availed with the required crisis loans, an applicant may be requested to furnish the social fund lender with their banking information, their previous total debts owed to various financial institutions, source of their income for the loan provider to come up with a true picture of the applicant current financial situation, so as to gauge their repayment capabilities. Apart from the very essential survival requirements, the loan amounts can not be used for buying on non-essentials, like cars, television, radios, paying parking expenses, educational costs, for paying holiday expenses, etc.
