Update SASSA Grant Application

The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) requires existing beneficiaries to update SASSA grant application when there are mistakes in personal information, legal changes in name or surname, a lost or changed phone number, outdated banking details, or shifts in financial circumstances such as employment status.

Update SASSA Grant Application

To update your existing SRD Grant Application, your registered phone number and South African ID number are required. The agency can request application updates for additional documents such as medical reports, affidavits, a marital certificate, or a child’s birth certificate.

  1. Go to the SASSA SRD portal and log in to your grant application account. https://srd.sassa.gov.za/said
  2. Navigate to the section “Update Existing Application” to edit your grant application details.
  3. Enter your South African ID and the mobile number to verify the SASSA OTP and proceed as the original applicant.
  4. Once you’ve accessed your application, click to view the details.
  5. Update any incorrect information, reflect your current circumstances, and update your SASSA application.
  6. Upload any required supporting documents in PDF format, if requested by SASSA.
  7. Ensure your name, surname, and all other personal details are accurate.
  8. Click “Submit” to update your application so that SASSA can reprocess and approve your grant for monthly payment.

After updating your SRD R370 application, you should receive a confirmation SMS shortly. This message is your positive proof that your request was successfully submitted and is being processed.

Note: Other social grants such as the Older Persons Grant, Child Support Grant, and Disability Grant, requires you to visit the nearest SASSA office in person.

How long does it take for SASSA to verify the updated application

SASSA reviews and verifies updated personal information within 15 working days. You can check your application status online anytime for reassurance that everything is moving forward.

Important: If you need help or further clarity, call SASSA helpline at 0800 60 10 11 available to support you.

    Theres no way people who have been paying for tax could suffer like these ,government should introduce a team apart from the sassa grant application form receivers, who will run audit and check why people stay so long without being paid.these grant goes the sassa workers account after being approved and they later on give you a single payment These government running these their officials are very very corrupt and they need to privately be audited and held accountable and be jailed for years .they are fraudulent they are master of stealing .when new government takes over all these will come to an end
