SD Sassa: How do I check my SASSA SRD status?
When a person is unemployed, has no other source of income, and is not receiving any other type of social grant or payment from the UIF (Unemployment Insurance Fund), they may be eligible for a temporary financial aid program called the SRD grant. It is meant to help persons who are suffering from severe financial hardship as a result of unforeseeable events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic or other catastrophes.
The SRD grant offers a monthly payment of R350 for a duration of six months. It is intended to assist recipients in meeting their basic needs, including buying food, clothing, and other basics. Refugees, citizens of South Africa, and lawful permanent residents are all eligible for the payment.
The SRD grant application process is managed by SASSA, and interested individuals can apply online or by visiting a SASSA office. The application process is designed to be simple and accessible to all, and SASSA aims to process applications as quickly as possible to ensure that those in need receive assistance in a timely manner.
