THE QUESTIONS ON YOUR MIND

Let’s make it clearer.

Explore all questions
Can I apply directly without UIFAssist?+

Yes. Direct UIF applications and official government forms are free. UIFAssist is an independent service and is not required to make a claim.

Where do I submit a new maternity claim?+

New employee benefit claims use UIF Online. You can also ask a Labour Centre for help. Our submission guide explains the preparation and follow-up steps.

Does UIFAssist approve or pay my claim?+

No. Only the UIF can decide eligibility, approve benefits and make payments. Our guidance and case support do not guarantee an outcome.
