The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) gives the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant to deliver economic help to individuals and families struggling with hardship.
The grant targets South African citizens, refugees, asylum seekers, and special permit holders between the ages of 18 and sixty.
The SRD grant is there to aid all those who have inadequate earnings, don't receive other social grants or unemployment insurance and lack financial support from somewhere else.
Up until finally April 2024, the Sassa SRD grant value stood at R350 monthly. It was then declared the SRD grant could be increased to R370 starting from April 2024.
There are two primary methods to apply for the Sassa SRD grant: On line sassa appeal status utilizing the Sassa SRD Site and on WhatsApp.
Must you have submitted an SRD grant application and were rejected, Sassa then allows you to post an appeal which can then see them rethink your R370 Sassa grant application.
When you finally submit a Sassa SRD appeal, It is encouraged that you often do a Sassa status check.
