Beneficiaries without valid banking details on file may be approved for the SRD grant but not receive a payment date. To avoid payment delays, it’s essential to keep your banking information up to date with Sassa.
If your Sassa SRD grant application is approved and you need to change your payment method, you can easily update your banking details via the SRD website.
