South Africans who rely on social grants can now check the official payment dates and amounts for next week. Knowing exactly when to collect your SASSA grant helps avoid long queues, confusion, and delays especially for older persons and those in rural areas.

The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) has released its updated grant payment schedule for the upcoming week, including amounts for each grant type. Whether you’re receiving an Older Persons Grant, Child Support Grant, or Disability Grant, staying informed ensures a smooth and timely payout.

SASSA Grant Payment Schedule for Next Week

The following is the confirmed SASSA grant collection schedule for next week:

Wednesday, 4 June 2025 – Disability Grant
Thursday, 5 June 2025 – Child Support Grant, Foster Child Grant, and Care Dependency Grant

Payments are made starting on the above dates and remain available afterwards. Beneficiaries do not need to rush on the exact day if it’s inconvenient. Funds will remain in their accounts for later withdrawal.

This year’s first increase took effect in April. Here’s what beneficiaries can expect to receive:

Old Age (60-74 years) and Disability grants by R130 to R2,315;

How to Collect Your SASSA Grant

You can collect your SASSA grant in the following ways:

ATM withdrawal using your SASSA card
Retail stores such as Pick n Pay, Boxer, Checkers, Shoprite, and Spar
Post Office (SAPO) – selected branches only
Direct bank deposit (for beneficiaries who opted in)

To avoid overcrowding, SASSA recommends collecting grants a few days after the initial payout date if possible.

SASSA continues to provide essential financial support to millions of South Africans. By knowing when to collect your SASSA grant, you can plan your week and access your funds safely and efficiently.
