Are you a recipient of the South African Social Security Agency's (Sassa) Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant? If so, you can easily check your payment status and expected date online.
SRD grant payments are typically made during the final week of the month after Sassa completes necessary verification checks.
Soon, Sassa will commence with SRD grant payments for January 2025. This will be the first Sassa SRD R370 grant payment for this year.
SRD Grant Payment Dates for January 2025
January 2025 SRD grant payments are set to be paid to approved grant applicants between 25 January 2025 and 31 January 2025.
Beneficiaries are urged to check their SRD status on the official SRD website to determine the exact date their grant will reflect in their bank accounts.
To confirm the exact payment date, beneficiaries can check their SRD status on the official SRD website.
- Visit the SASSA SRD status website: Go to the official Sassa website and navigate to the SRD status check section.
- Enter your details: You'll need to provide your ID number and the cellphone number you used when applying for the grant.
- Verify your identity: A one-time pin (OTP) will be sent to your phone. Enter it to confirm your identity.

Funds may take 2-3 working days to reflect in your bank account after the SRD grant payment is processed. There's no need to withdraw your Sassa money immediately; it will remain in your account until you need it.
You can collect your Sassa social grant at various payment points, including ATMs and retail stores like Pick n Pay, Checkers, Shoprite, and Boxer.
