SASSA during the weekend, urge beneficiaries to update their personal information which was initially incorrectly provided on the SRD website and/or alter their responses to the screening questions asked in their applications.

Update about Social Grant payments for July

As stated by South Africa Social Security Agency (Sassa) social grant payments for July will start on Monday for older persons, followed by disability grants on Tuesday, with all other grants paid from Wednesday.

Meanwhile, SASSA Beneficiaries who do not have PIN codes or have forgotten their PINs are encouraged to ensure they reset their PIN codes at their nearest post office outlet. Those who have PIN codes and remember them need not renew their PIN.

This process will help our clients to use all available channels to access their grants and give them the freedom to use their Sassa cards at all points of collection, such as ATMs and merchant stores Pick n Pay, Shoprite, Boxer and U-Save,” said the agency.

Sassa urged beneficiaries to only make their way to mobile pay points on specific dates to avoid disappointment.
