The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) has started disbursing May 2024 payments. This week, you can expect to see funds credited to accounts for the Older Persons Grant.
Sassa distributes several different permanent grants to people living in South Africa. These include 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.
May Sassa Grant Payment Dates
- Friday, 3 May: Older Persons Grant
- Monday, 6 May: Disability Grants
- Tuesday, 7 May: Children's Grants
While Sassa usually aims for consecutive payment days, this month there's a slight delay for some grants. Rest assured, once your specific grant is paid, the funds will remain safely in your account until you need them. There's no pressure to withdraw cash immediately.
