How are SASSA Payment Dates Determined?
SASSA payment dates are determined based on various factors, including the type of grant, the payment method, and the date the application was approved.
For example, the Older Persons Grant, Disability Grant, and Child Support Grant payments are usually made on the first day of each month, while the Foster Child Grant and Care Dependency Grant payments are made on the 15th of each month. The payment date for the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant is on the 15th of every month.
The SASSA payments schedule is subject to change, and beneficiaries are advised to check with their local SASSA office or visit the SASSA website for the latest payment dates. The payment method may also affect the payment date. For example, bank transfers may take longer to process, and this may affect the payment date for beneficiaries who have chosen this payment method.
In addition, SASSA may also adjust payment dates to avoid public holidays or weekends, ensuring that beneficiaries receive their payments promptly. SASSA strives to ensure that grant payments are made on time and to the correct beneficiaries.
