The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) makes grant payments to over 18 million South Africans every month. As September is ending and October is about to commence, it's important that Sassa grant beneficiaries have all the information they need about October Sassa grants.
In October 2024, these Sassa grants will be distributed from the second day of the month. However, beneficiaries of other grant will have to wait a few more days for their grant payments as Sassa does not pay grants to beneficiaries on weekends.
