As of April 2023, the South African government is not offering the SASSA SRD (Social Relief of Distress) grant of R350 per month. However, I can provide information on the previous application process for the SRD grant, which was available from August 2020 to April 2022.
The SRD grant application process varied depending on the applicant's preferred method of application, which included online, WhatsApp, email, and physical application at SASSA offices. However, the basic requirements for eligibility and application were the same.
To be eligible for the SRD grant, applicants had to be South African citizens, permanent residents, or refugees registered with the Department of Home Affairs, and over the age of 18. Applicants had to demonstrate that they had no source of income, or that their income was below R3500 per month. They also had to show that they were in distress due to a disaster or unforeseeable emergency, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
To apply for the SRD grant in August 2020, applicants were required to submit the following documentation:
- A copy of their ID document or passport.
- A completed and signed application form.
- A letter from their employer, confirming that they had lost their job or income due to COVID-19, or any other documentation demonstrating loss of income.
- A bank statement or proof of bank account, indicating the account holder's name, bank account number, and bank branch code.
Applications were processed by SASSA and successful applicants received the SRD grant amount of R350 per month for a period of up to six months. Applicants were required to reapply for the grant after six months if they still met the eligibility criteria.
It is important to note that the SRD grant was a temporary relief measure and not a permanent solution to financial distress. The South African government has implemented various measures to address the issue of poverty and unemployment in the long term, including job creation initiatives and skills development programs.
