sassa 550 grant 2023

In order to avoid a promotion for yet another Social Alleviation of Pain (SRD) award, the Branch of Social Improvement has sought South Africans with weak social standing.

The Social Relief of Distress (SRD) award is an essential kind of assistance for millions of South Africans who are vulnerable. However, you must remember that the South African Social Security Agency’s R350 grant website is the only place where you may submit an application for the SRD award (Sassa).

Following a dubious advertising that urged South Africans to apply for a brand-new “R550 SRD award,” this has happened. The Department of Social Development (DSD) claims that the advertisement is a fraud and does not originate from the agency.

Hoaxes promoting newly approved R550 grant payments to South Africans have been circulating on a variety of social media platforms.

According to the statement, “Social Relief of Distress (SRD) R550 payments is a temporary source of support meant for those in such a serious material need that they are unable to meet the most basic necessities of their family.”

The post also contains a link to the application for the funding. People have been urged by the DSD to ignore these messages and avoid connecting. They asserted that the post was falsely informed.

The SRD grant is worth R350. On the SRD website, applicants can submit their applications. Rejected applicants may file grant appeals with the Independent Tribunal for Social Assistance Appeals (ITSAA).
