The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) features the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant to offer economic help to individuals and households struggling with hardship.
The grant targets South African citizens, refugees, asylum seekers, and special permit holders in between the ages of 18 and 60.
The SRD grant is there to aid whoever has insufficient income, don't receive other social grants or unemployment insurance and lack financial support from in other places.
Up until April 2024, the Sassa SRD grant value stood at R350 every month. It was then announced the SRD grant will be increased to R370 starting from April 2024.
There are two major ways to make an application for the Sassa SRD grant: On line using the Sassa SRD Web read more page and on WhatsApp.
Should you have submitted an SRD grant application and have been turned down, Sassa then helps you read more to post an read more appeal which will then see them rethink your R370 Sassa grant application.
As you post a Sassa SRD appeal, It is really encouraged that you often do a Sassa status check.
