R2,315 SASSA Grant Payments Begin September 2025 — Who Gets Paid First?

by

According to the SASSA notice, the staggered payment system shall remain until September 2025, with the raised grant amount introduced in April 2025, at R2,315, to be paid on different days in relation to the kind of treatment the beneficiary is undergoing. Hence, it is helpful to know the date of payment to avoid being idly wasted in the queues. 

What Grants Are Paid and in What Amounts

As adjusted in April 2025:

  • Mostly permanent grants for Old Age, Disability, Care Dependency, and War Veterans have been raised to R2,315 per month.
  • Payments for other grants like Child Support, Foster Child, etc., are less. 

These amounts remain so until September.

SASSA had set up a staggered provision so that the various categories would receive payment on different types of days in September 2025. The schedule is thus: 

  • Old Persons Grant: will be paid on 2nd September, Tuesday
  • Disability Grant: will be paid on 3rd September, Wednesday
  • Other Grants (Child Support, Foster Care, Care Dependency, etc.): will be paid on 4th September, Thursday

What Other Dates Are There Before 22 September?

You asked: “Payments begin September 22-So who gets paid first?” Peace, payments for the permanent grants in September commence on September 2, not 22. Sometimes the date of September 22 is floating out there in articles and whatnot; for instance, September 22 might be the deadline to apply for the SRD grant or another form of notice. But this is not when the actual regular grant payments-old-age, disability, child support, etc.-start being made.

What Beneficiaries Should Do

Here Below are tips designed to help your SPF through not to mess it up and have a problem:

  • Know your grant type-the grant you are getting: Old Age, Disability, Child Support, etc. 
  • Do not be in a hurry to draw your money-point-cash will be available for a very long time after the first day. You could actually use the time to avoid crowds. 
  • Update your bank or pay point details so as not to have problems when drawing money. 
  • Watch out for unauthorized deductions-an alert by SASSA.
