Countless vulnerable individuals rely on grants disbursed by the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA). It’s imperative to stay informed about SASSA payment dates to ensure you don’t miss out on the assistance you deserve. SASSA has unveiled the payment schedule for the remainder of 2023, providing beneficiaries with essential details.

SASSA’s Crucial Role: SASSA operates under the framework of the Social Assistance Act, overseeing the implementation of various social assistance programs designed to support vulnerable South Africans. These programs encompass a range of grants tailored to different needs.

Permanent Grants: SASSA administers several permanent grants, including the Older Persons pension grant, Disability grant, War Veterans grant, Care Dependency grant, Foster Child grant, Child Support grant, Child Support grant Top-Up, and Grant-in-aid.

When Permanent Grants Are Paid: Permanent grants are typically distributed at the beginning of each month, commencing on the second day. However, it’s vital to note that SASSA does not disburse grants on public holidays or weekends.
