The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) has announced the payment dates for November's social grants.
Each month, Sassa distributes over 18 million permanent grant payments, including 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.
Sassa aims to pay social grants from the second day of the month. However, the agency does not pay grants on weekends or public holidays.
In November 2024, the second day of the month falls on the weekend resulting in a delay in social grant payments.
