sassa website not working 2023-2024

Millions of customers rely on the grant application online, but the South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) has made it plain that it would soon be inaccessible. You won’t be able to access the Social Alleviation of Pain (SRD) website for the following reason.

All Social Relief of Distress (SRD) R350 award winners were required to submit a new application by the end of April 2022. According to Sassa, about 8 million people applied for the grant.

These applications were made through the Sassa SRD website, which is located at https://srd.sassa.gov.za. Award applicants can also use the website to submit appeals for unsuccessful award applications, actually check the status of their award applications, and choose their method of payment.

Sassa has announced that grant applicants won’t be able to utilize the website due to system maintenance.

Sassa said, “Please be aware that ICT will be doing a series of system and infrastructure maintenance; this procedure will be completed over four weekends.

The first weekend has ended. Only three weekends have been designated for upkeep.

When Will The Sassa Website Be Unavailable?

27 May to 29 May (17:00 Friday to 23:00 Sunday)
10 June to 12 June (17:00 Friday to 23:00 Sunday)
24 June to 26 June (17:00 Friday to 23:00 Sunday)

Beneficiaries should take note that the SRD Website won’t be accessible during these hours, Sassa continued. Any trouble this may create is much regretted.

All enquiries and services related to the R350 grant are available through WhatsApp.
