To be eligible for the SRD grant, applicants must be South African citizens or permanent residents, be over the age of 18, not receive any other social grants, and be able to demonstrate that they are in a state of distress or experiencing financial hardship.

The amount of the SRD grant varies based on individual circumstances and may be paid out for up to six months. Recipients of the grant are also required to attend financial education workshops to help them manage their finances better and become more self-sufficient in the long term.

SASSA is responsible for administering the SRD grant, including processing applications, determining eligibility, and disbursing funds to recipients. The agency also provides ongoing support to grant recipients, including financial education and counseling services to help them become more financially stable and self-sufficient.
