The SRD grant started as a way to help people who lost their income during COVID. At first people got R350 each month to help them buy basic things while they couldn’t work. The government made some changes later on & increased the amount to R370. They also changed some rules about who could get the money. Before November 2025 many people wanted to know more about when they would get paid and who could apply for the grant. Most people still call it the R350 grant even though the amount changed.
November 2025 SASSA SRD R350 Payment Schedule Explained
The SRD payments for November 2025 will happen between November 24 and 30. These dates only include normal business days. SRD works differently from other grants because people get paid on different days. The money is sent out in groups so some people get paid earlier than others during this time. If you don’t get your payment right away don’t worry. It usually takes 2 to 3 business days for the money to show up in your account or be ready at payment locations.
