How to Change SRD Contact Details

By Klnam Kurt •  Updated: 04/10/24 •  6 min read

Beneficiaries can now change their personal information on the SASSA SRD platform. This was made possible by the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA). This is important because it lets people who get social grants ensure their information is correct and up-to-date, which can avoid delays or other problems with getting their money.

Beneficiaries can update their personal information, such as their home, contact information, and bank account information, all through the online platform. Changing these things in person at a SASSA office would have taken more time and work. Overall, this feature makes it easier for people to handle their social grants and ensures the process is more efficient and effective.

Changing your personal information on the SASSA SRD website is done to ensure you get a relief grant with correct and up-to-date information on file. 

This helps stop fraud and payment mistakes and ensures the money goes to your account.

Updating personal information like an address or bank account number can also help ensure payments are sent and received quickly and easily. It is important you check and update your personal information on the SASSA SRD website regularly to make sure they keep getting the relief grant.

How do I change my personal details in SRD?

On the SASSA SRD page, “personal details” means information that can be used to identify a person and is needed to apply for a Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant. This information includes the applicant’s full name, date of birth, gender, identity number, and contact information, like their phone number and address. To determine eligibility for the grant, the applicant may also have to give information about their marital situation, dependents, income, and expenses. Make sure that all of the personal information you give is correct and up-to-date to avoid delays or being turned down for the SRD grant.
