Why Sassa SRD R350 April 2023 Not Showing?

Many South Africans who rely on the SASSA SRD R350 grant may be wondering why they haven’t received their monthly payment for April as we approach the end of the first quarter of 2023. A number of factors are affecting the grant’s processing and disbursement.

Why Sassa SRD R350 April 2023 Not Showing?

Due to the extension of the SASSA SRD R350 grant by the government, the grant for April 2023 has been delayed. SASSA has had to upgrade and reconfigure their systems to accommodate the extension of the grant. As the new systems are being tested and implemented, there has been a temporary delay in the processing and disbursement of the grant.

SASSA is working hard to ensure that the upgrades are completed as soon as possible, so that eligible applicants can receive their grants as soon as possible.

Second, existing applicants may not have to reconfirm their applications to be considered for the extended grant. In order to determine eligibility for the extended grant, SASSA will use existing data. Therefore, previous grant recipients won’t have to reapply or reconfirm their applications.

SASSA Eligibility Criteria for the Extended Grant

There are no new eligibility criteria for the extended grant, which is the third reason for the delay. This means that applicants who meet the eligibility requirements will continue to receive the grant based on the old criteria. An individual who is unemployed, does not receive any other social grant or unemployment insurance benefits, and does not receive any other income is included here.

The SASSA encourages all applicants to use this opportunity to ensure that their personal information, especially their banking details, are accurate and up-to-date. As a result, the grant processing and disbursement will be sped up, and fraud risk will be reduced.

A delay in the SASSA SRD R350 grant in April 2023 is due to the extension of the grant, the need to upgrade and reconfigure SASSA’s systems, and the use of existing data to determine eligibility. The SASSA is working hard to ensure that eligible applicants receive their grants as soon as possible. To avoid further delays, applicants should ensure that their personal information is accurate and up-to-date.
