Delayed SRD Grant Payments Why We Avoid

There are millions of South Africans who benefit from the R350 grant, making it an essential support mechanism. Those who fail to follow this step will not be able to access the crucial grant.

Introduction to Delayed SRD Grant Payments

Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant beneficiaries are urged by the South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) to provide their correct bank account information. If your banking account information is incorrect, you may not receive the R350 grant.

Sassa said, “Clients are advised to ensure that they provide correct banking details when submitting their application for the Covid-19 SRD grant.”

Providing that their grant application was approved, failure to comply with this will result in delayed SRD grant payments.

Sassa checks your bank account

Beneficiaries of SRD grants are advised to use their banking account information. Sassa checks your bank account for any money that might prevent you from qualifying for the grant.

It assists the agency in preventing fraudulent activities related to the SRD grant, according to Sassa. The SRD grant website allows grant beneficiaries to update their banking details.

Final Words

The Department of Social Development also announced changes to the income threshold for SRD grants. The grant will now be available to more people thanks to the announcement.

The food poverty line has been raised to R624 per month. The grant will now be available to people earning up to R624 or having that amount in their bank accounts.
