Today, #TeamHomeAffairs breaks new ground as we launch myhomeaffairsonline.dha.gov.za, where any South African can verify their citizenship and confirm reinstatement of citizenship if it had been unconstitutionally withdrawn. In keeping with our commitment to use digital transformation to deliver 𝘏𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘈𝘧𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘳𝘴 @ 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦, this process involves no queues and no paperwork whatsoever. Instead, it uses facial recognition and machine learning to verify your identity and securely correct your record on the population register - all from the comfort of your own home, anywhere in the world, instantly. This not only ensures compliance with an order issued earlier this year by the Constitutional Court on the reinstatement of citizenship, but also positions Home Affairs at the global cutting-edge of biometric verification and machine learning technology to deliver digital public infrastructure. Very few countries on earth offer digital citizenship services at this level of sophistication. Over time, the powerful underlying technology we have built for this portal will also significantly enhance other services, as well as immigration and citizenship law enforcement, by eliminating reliance on paperwork and manual verification. Home Affairs is building a digital service delivery revolution, storming into the future to transform South Africa into a world leader in smart government that delivers dignity for all! 🇿🇦

Two years ago, 76 lives were lost at the Usindiso Building. Two years later, families and survivors still wait for justice! Lawyers for Human Rights demands action, accountability, compensation, and safe housing for all. Justice delayed is justice denied!!

[Read] Once again, the High Court finds inadequacy in the investigative processes of the @CouncilPractice. A similar finding was made in GroundUp v LPC [2023] ZAGPJHC 559. Inadequacy is the basis of our case against the LPC. #HumanDignityHasNoNationality shorturl.at/3aHss
