Post Office announces SRD pay days for February 2022

The SA Post Office has announced the pay dates for social relief of distress (SRD) beneficiaries who collect their R350 grant from their local Post Office.

Thursday 3 February 2022 to Tuesday 8 February is reserved for the payment of old age, disability and child grants.

The rest of the month is dedicated to the payment of R350 SRD grants. 

  • Mondays: Beneficiaries whose ID numbers end in 082 and 087
  • Tuesdays: ID numbers ending in 083 and 088
  • Wednesdays: ID numbers ending in 084 and 089
  • Thursdays: ID numbers ending in 080 and 085
  • Fridays: ID numbers ending in 081 and 086

The dates are posted regularly on the Post Office’s Twitter and Facebook pages. The handle is @PostOfficeSA.

Beneficiaries are advised to wait until they have received an SMS confirming that their grant is available before they visit their post office.

Beneficiaries whose phones were used to apply for only one SRD grant can also collect the grant from any Pick ‘n Pay or Boxer supermarket.  If a phone was used to apply for more than one grant, it can only be collected from a Post Office.  This does not apply to beneficiaries who chose to receive their grant in a bank account.

SRD grants are payable until the end of March 2022.  However, beneficiaries who have not yet received there grants need not be concerned.  Payments will be made at Post Office branches at least until June 2022 to make sure all outstanding grants are paid.
