SASSA SRD July 2025 Payment Dates: Check Your Grant Status & Schedule

With July 2025 just around the corner from rest, applicants for the Social Relief of Distress should be notified of a couple of exciting payments’ related updates. Being somewhat a few steps away from extirminating unemployment and poverty, SRD grants of R370 per month are now somewhat an effective financial lifeline for the unemployed or those in economic distress. 

SRD Payment Dates for July 2025

Permanent social grants such as Older Persons, Disability, and Children Grants are paid at the beginning of each month, therefore, SRD grant payments are normally made during the last week of the month. SRD grant recipients should anticipate the payment dates to be between 26 and 31 July 2025.

How to Check Your SRD Pay Status

Payments should be regular, or in time; thus, applicants and beneficiaries should keep checking on their SRD status. Checking on the payment status will entail:

  1. Visiting the official SASSA SRD portal
  2. Entering your South African ID number and phone number when you applied
  3. Your payment status and payment date will then be displayed on the screen 

With just this little check, you will be able to find out if your grant has been approved, rejected, or is still under review.
