Guidance for SRD Grant Beneficiaries
Recipients of the SRD grant are urged to actively monitor their SASSA status either online or via the mobile app to confirm their specific payment date. SASSA provides assurance that it has enacted all requisite measures to ensure a smooth and punctual payment process.
For beneficiaries who have supplied their bank details, grants will be deposited directly into their accounts. Alternatively, those without bank details can collect payments at designated pay points. This staggered approach not only aims to prevent system overload but also empowers SASSA to promptly address any potential issues.
Beneficiary Guidance
SASSA advises beneficiaries to remain patient and utilize available communication channels for inquiries or concerns. While June payment dates are confirmed, beneficiaries are encouraged to stay informed through official announcements, as occasional adjustments may arise due to unforeseen circumstances.
The agency reaffirms its commitment to expeditiously and effectively disbursing grants to all eligible recipients.
