When will the SASSA SRD Grant (R370) payment for April 2026 reflect?↓
SASSA Social Relief of Distress (SRD) R370 payments do not have a single fixed pay date. Instead, they are processed during the designated payment window at the end of the month (normally between the 20th and 30th of April 2026) once your status on the portal shows 'Approved'.
Where can I collect my SRD Grant (R370) payout once it is paid?↓

Alternatively, you can collect your cash at participating South African retail merchants including Pick n Pay, Boxer, Shoprite, Checkers, and Usave.
What does it mean if my SRD Grant (R370) status is 'Approved' but there is no payment date?↓
If your SASSA status is 'Approved' for April 2026 but has no payment date, it means your application has been verified, but SASSA is still processing the bank payment batch. Keep monitoring the SASSA Services Portal as payment dates are updated in batches.
