When you’ve been in an accident, what are your options for dealing with living expenses while waiting for an RAF claim? The Road Accident Fund (RAF) is supposed to be a safety net for South Africans injured in Road Accidents. Unfortunately, this is a safety net that shaping up to be full of holes and they only seem to be getting bigger and bigger the more you look. Recent headlines paint a concerning picture: accusations of unlawful conduct, persistent payment delays, and claimants left in financial limbo. You’re probably facing physical recovery expenses and, on top of those, trying to manage your ongoing living expenses while you wait for your claim to be paid out. The frustration is understandable. You’ve been through a traumatic experience, and now, the very system meant to support you seems to be faltering. So, what options for dealing with living expenses while waiting for an RAF claim do you have to ensure your basic needs are met? Understanding the RAF delays Before you start to explore your options, it’s important to understand the current RAF situation. The RAF is facing some very concerning financial and operational challenges that translate into lengthy claim processing times, disputed claims, and delayed payouts. While the legal battles and internal restructuring chaos play out, you, the claimant, are unfortunately left high and dry to bear the brunt of the mismanagement.
