What day of the month does SASSA pay? 2023-2024
The payment dates for SASSA (South African Social Security Agency) grants vary depending on the type of grant and the payment method selected by the recipient. SASSA has three payment methods, including cash payments at a designated pay point, electronic payment through a bank or post office, and direct deposit into a bank account.
- For cash payments, the payment dates are typically set for the first day of each month, or the first business day following the first of the month if it falls on a weekend or public holiday. Recipients are advised to check with their local SASSA office for the exact payment date and time at their designated pay point.
- For electronic payments through a bank or post office, payment dates are typically set for the first three working days of each month. However, the payment date may vary based on the bank or post office used by the recipient.
- For direct deposits into a bank account, the payment date can vary depending on the specific bank's processing times. However, SASSA typically processes payments on the first day of each month and payments are usually reflected in the recipient's bank account within two to three working days.
- It is important to note that payment dates may change due to public holidays or other unforeseen circumstances. SASSA usually notifies beneficiaries of any changes to payment dates through various communication channels, including SMS notifications and public announcements.
- Recipients are also advised to ensure that their banking details are up to date to avoid any delays or issues with receiving their grants. This can be done by visiting a local SASSA office or updating their details through the SASSA online portal.
- In summary, SASSA payment dates vary depending on the payment method selected by the recipient, with cash payments typically made on the first day of each month, electronic payments on the first three working days, and direct deposits into bank accounts processed on the first day of each month. Recipients should ensure that their details are up to date and be aware that payment dates may change due to unforeseen circumstances.
