Step-by-Step Process to Check SASSA Status Online 2026/2027:

The R350 Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant has played an important role in helping many South Africans meet their basic needs during challenging times. Managed by the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA), this monthly grant offers temporary relief to unemployed individuals, have no source of income and do not receive any other form of government support. For beneficiaries, one of the most important details to keep track of is the R350 payment dates. Knowing when payments are scheduled helps recipients plan, budget carefully, and avoid unnecessary delays or confusion.

For the 2026-2027 financial year, SASSA will continue releasing monthly payment schedules to guide all grant beneficiaries. These schedules ensure that funds are distributed in an orderly manner, avoiding long queues at pay points and making it easier for individuals to receive their money either through banks, retail outlets, or mobile cash send services.

The R350 payment dates are usually spread across the month, with older persons, disability grants, and child support grants being paid first, followed by SRD payments. It is important to note that SASSA does not pay all grants on the same day to prevent system overloads and reduce pressure at collection points. This article provides clear information on the R350 dates for 2026-2027, how to check your status, and the different ways you can receive your funds. Staying informed will ensure you never miss your payment and can access the grant smoothly every month.
