Half a million grants yet to be collected

Social Development Minister Lindiwe Zulu has called on South Africans who haven’t collected their approved Social Relief of Distress grant to collect it before the end of the month. Zulu says everybody must re-apply for the second round, even if they qualified and received grants the first time.  More than half a million grants have not yet been collected from Post Office branches.

She says the new applications will be effective from the 6th of August – provided the qualifying criteria are met.
