Uncollected SRD Grant
Uncollected SRD Grant: How do I apply for SASSA social relief?
The Uncollected SRD Grant in South Africa refers to the social relief of distress grant provided by the government to assist vulnerable individuals and households affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, but which has not yet been collected by eligible recipients. The grant was initially introduced in May 2020 and provides R350 per month to eligible individuals who are unemployed, do not receive any other form of a social grant or income support, and who have been affected by the pandemic.
However, there have been reports of a significant number of eligible recipients who have not collected their grants, either due to difficulty accessing the grant or lack of awareness of the grant’s availability. In response, the government has made efforts to reach out to eligible recipients and improve the distribution of the uncollected SRD grant.
The uncollected SRD grant is intended to provide temporary financial relief to those who are struggling to make ends meet during the pandemic, and it is hoped that efforts to improve access and awareness of the grant will help to provide much-needed assistance to those who need it most.

What happens to uncollected SRD grants?
The uncollected SRD grants in South Africa are returned to the National Revenue Fund (NRF) after a certain period of time. The NRF is a government account where all government revenue is collected and managed. If eligible recipients do not collect their SRD grants within five months of the grant being approved, the funds are returned to the NRF. This is done to ensure that the funds allocated for the SRD grant are used appropriately and efficiently to support those in need.
It’s important for eligible recipients who have not yet collected their SRD grants to do so as soon as possible to avoid losing out on this important source of financial support. The government has made efforts to improve the distribution of the SRD grant and increase awareness of its availability, so eligible individuals are encouraged to contact SASSA or visit a SASSA office for assistance in collecting their grant.
