What is the SRD R350 Grant?

The SRD R350 grant is a temporary financial support measure aimed at unemployed individuals and those in financial distress during periods of economic difficulty, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. While the grant was introduced as a temporary measure, it has continued into 2024, supporting those who are not receiving any other income or financial aid from the government.

To qualify for the SRD R350 grant, applicants must meet the following eligibility criteria:

• Be a South African citizen, permanent resident, or refugee registered in South Africa.
• Be between 18 and 60 years old.
• Be unemployed and not receiving any other social grants, unemployment insurance (UIF), or NSFAS funding.
