SASSA SRD Reapplication 2026 — How to Reapply for R370 Grant

If your SASSA SRD application was cancelled, expired, or you never applied before, you can reapply for the R370 grant online. Here is how.

Who Needs to Reapply?

You need to reapply if:

• You previously cancelled your SRD application and want it reinstated
• Your application expired (SASSA periodically closes old applications)
• You never applied before and want to apply for the first time
• Your status shows “Application Not Found”

How to Reapply Online

1. Go to srd.sassa.gov.za/sc19
2. Enter your 13-digit SA ID number
3. Enter your active South African phone number
4. SASSA sends an OTP — enter it to verify your identity
5. Add your banking details (bank name and account number)
6. Submit your reapplication

SASSA will run verification checks and send you an SMS within 30 days.

Reinstate a Cancelled Application

If you cancelled your SRD application but want it back:

1. Go to srd.sassa.gov.za/sc19/reinstate
2. Enter your ID number and phone number
3. Follow the prompts to reinstate your application

Reinstatement is only available if you cancelled voluntarily. If SASSA cancelled your application for policy reasons, you need to submit a fresh application.

Reapplication Pending — What Does It Mean?

If your status shows “Reapplication Pending”, it means:

• Your reapplication was received
• SASSA is currently running verification checks
• This is normal and can take 2–4 weeks

Check your status again using the SASSA status tool after 14 days.

What Documents Are Needed?

No physical documents are required for online reapplication. You only need:

• 13-digit SA ID number
• Active South African mobile number (registered in your name)
• Bank account number
