Dear Professor Blade Nzimande
I am a University of Limpopo student since 2021, this year I registered at UNISA due to my health issues, but around March I canceled my registration and continued with University of Limpopo. I have been receiving living allowance but it stopped in June. I enquired with the University and told me that I'm not funded. I contacted NSFAS and they told me that my registration is linked with UNISA, I was told to submit proof of deregistration from UNISA to NSFAS, I did sent an email to UNISA requesting it but they told me that they don't provide such documents but only statement. I emailed the statement to NSFAS but NSFAS says they don't need it they only need a document written PROOF OF REGISTRATION, otherwise my issue will not be resolved because it's not their fault. I tried to convince UNISA but there's nothing they can do because they don't provide such documents and my registration were successfully canceled and no allowance were allocated for me to UNISA but NSFAS says they already paid my allowances to UNISA. This is affecting me academically and emotionally since I only depend on the NSFAS allowance, I'm starting with my exams this week but I don't have food no place to sleep because I can not afford without the funding. Please help me regarding this issue.
