SASSA is the most well-known organization in South Africa, and it addresses issues such as hunger, financial instability, unemployment, poverty, and more. To help the residents, the agency has started an R350 grant under the Social Assistance Act.
Even after SASSA was established in early 2005, most individuals are still ignorant of eligibility requirements, payment options, and other details related to R350 grants. Here is a brief and uncomplicated guide to it.
The grant that SASSA provides to South African citizens is R350. The overall grant amount and the proportion of disbursed grants are revised annually to account for inflation. Similarly, the R350 grant, worth R 44 billion in 2022–2023, would be given to the victims monthly. It was made very clear in the most recent budget policy statement presented to the Parliament that the R350 award will be available until 2024. So, starting with the payment ways, here’s how to get this award.
R350 Grant Payment Methods:
SASSA grants are given to qualified Africans in several ways.
Traditional Methods: Post Offices
Post offices were the only recipients when the SASSA award was first started. However, as time passes and people’s needs and circumstances change, the grand may be obtained through various channels, including banks and pick-n-pay. Switching to advance payment options is advised, even though local post offices can still accept payments.
Advance Methods: Pick & Pay, ATMs & Banks
You may quickly receive the cash using cutting-edge payment options like Pick & Pay, eliminating the need for hours-long lineups.
R350 Grant Through Pick & Pay:
The most recent way the SASSA has added to get your grant is Pick & Pay. This easy and quick method is not well-known to most people, so let me explain.
The R350 grant collection date is disclosed in an SMS notification you get upon submission of your SASSA grant application, along with information on its acceptance. Visit your SRD status to see if you received the message.
Please visit any local Pick & Pay shop that day to pick up the grant. Keep your ID with you at all times! You will only get grants from the Pick & Pay shop if your ID and contact information match. That’s it! As you can see, obtaining the funding is now simple.
