KUALA LUMPUR: Those who did not qualify for the Rahmah Cash Contribution must make a fresh application before the end of this month, says Deputy Finance Minister Steven Sim.
His advice follows reports that some applications were rejected because the applicants had businesses registered in their name.
Sim said eligibility for the aid is based on the overall assessment of an applicant, not just on income. He said the new applications and any supporting documents would then be cross-checked with government data.When tabling the revised Budget 2023 on Feb 24, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said Phase 1 of the Rahmah Cash Contribution would involve households in the B40 group with income of less than RM2,500.He said the government will also give additional cash aid of RM600 to hardcore poor households based on eKasih data.
