The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) would like to notify social grant
\nbeneficiaries of an increase in social grant amounts, effective from October 2024. SASSA
\nremains committed to providing vital support to South Africans in need and ensuring that
\ngrant payments are made on time and securely.<\/p>\n
New Grant Amounts as of October 2024:
\n\u27a2 Old Age Grant (Below 75 years): Increased from R2 180 (April 2024) to R2 190
\n\u27a2 Old Age Grant (Above 75 years): Increased from R2 200 (April 2024) to R2 210
\n\u27a2 War Veteran\u2019s Grant: Increased from R2 200 (April 2024) to R2 210
\n\u27a2 Disability Grant: Increased from R2 180 (April 2024) to R2 190
\n\u27a2 Care Dependency Grant: Increased from R2 180 (April 2024) to R2 190<\/p>\n
This increase, in addition to the increase earlier in April 2024, reflects governments
\ncommitment to improving the welfare of all grant beneficiaries.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, payment dates for October 2024 are as follows:
\n\u27a2 Older Persons’ Grants will be paid from 02 October 2024, this includes any grants
\nlinked to these accounts
\n\u27a2 Disability Grants will be paid from 03 October 2024, this includes any grants linked
\nto these accounts
\n\u27a2 Children\u2019s Grants and all other grants will be paid from 04 October 2024
\nBeneficiaries are kindly reminded that there is no need to rush to withdraw funds on the
\nfirst payment day, or to withdraw all their funds at once. It is safer to keep your funds in
\nyour bank account, transact with your card and only draw small amounts at a time. Funds
\nwill remain in client\u2019s accounts and will not be forfeited if not withdrawn immediately.
\nSASSA remains dedicated to ensuring that all payments are processed smoothly, and
\nbeneficiaries receive the support they depend on without hassle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
