Special Relief of Distress grant (SRD grant) reinstated and expanded
- 28 July 2021
- South African Accounting Academy
Government started the Special Relief of Distress grant (SRD grant) as a way to support citizens who are unemployed and receive no other income during the Covid-19 pandemic. This grant sees beneficiaries receive R350 payments every month, which is why many have called it the R350 grant.
Who can now claim for the R350 grant?
- STILL all out-of-work citizens aged 18-59 who receive no other grants, and
- NOW ALSO unemployed caregivers who DO receive other SASSA payments, e.g. child support grants.
After the end of March 2022, this SRD grant is expected to eventually be replaced by a larger Basic Income Grant.
