What “Children’s Grants” Covers

The published monthly schedule groups children’s grants together for payment-date purposes. Individual grant eligibility and amounts remain different.

SRD R370 Is Separate

The SRD grant does not use this same three-day permanent-grant schedule as an individual pay date. Check the pay-day field on your own SRD status result after approval.

If Payment Does Not Arrive

Confirm the grant type, payment method and scheduled date. If a payment is still missing after the relevant processing period, use the payment-not-received troubleshooting guide.
