Approved applicants of the special Covid-19 SRD Grant, whose unclaimed funds from the first round of the grant were to be forfeited on August 31, can still collect their unclaimed funds at the Post Office.
The Minister of Social Development, Lindiwe Zulu, made this important development possible through the recently published Ministerial Directions.
The affected beneficiaries have until November 30 to collect their unclaimed funds. Payments not withdrawn by any beneficiary by end of November will be forfeited to the State to fund other government priorities.
“We urge approved clients who have unclaimed funds from the previous cycle to collect them as soon as possible,” Busisiwe Memela-Khambula, Sassa CEO, said.
