Aswesuma Rejected or Not Selected? Complete Appeal & Objection Guide 2026

While the Aswesuma Welfare Benefit Scheme provides monthly financial relief to millions of families across Sri Lanka, many eligible households may find their names missing or applications rejected during evaluations. To ensure fairness, the government provides a formal framework to submit Appeals (மேல்முறையீடு) and Objections (முறைப்பாடுகள்).

Here is the complete step-by-step guide on how to claim your rights.

1. What to Do If You Didn’t Receive Aswesuma Benefits

If your name is missing from the active recipient list or your application was declined, take these initial steps:

  • Verify Your Status Online: Check your eligibility status and score details by entering your National Identity Card (NIC) number on the official Welfare Benefits Board portal.

  • Identify the Reason: Review the evaluation feedback or rejection criteria provided in your status report.

2. How to Submit an Appeal or Objection

  1. Visit Your Divisional Secretariat: Go directly to the designated Aswesuma welfare unit at your local Divisional Secretariat to collect the official appeal or objection form.

  2. Gather Supporting Documents: Attach documents that clearly prove your economic burden, low family income, or special vulnerabilities (such as senior citizen status, medical conditions, or individuals with disabilities).

  3. Submit Within the Deadline: Ensure you hand over the completed application forms back to the authorities within the announced timeframe.
