Looking to start a career at SASSA? Whether you’re passionate about helping people or looking for a stable government job, applying for vacancies at the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) is a straightforward process once you know where to start. Here’s a simple guide to help you.

Are you a recipient of the Sassa SRD grant? It's important to know when you can expect your R370 payment for May 2025. We have the details on the SASSA grant payment dates for 2025.

Civil rights organisations have jointly filed a court application against Sassa in the Pretoria High Court. Their application raises concerns over the eligibility requirements for The Social Relief of Distress grant, valued at R350. 
 

SASSA has fallen victim to many scams, as criminals have tried to defraud the agency's system. In response to the many attempts of theft, SASSA has created an anti-fraud strategy to crack down on criminals. 

According to SASSA, temporary disability grants are only valid for a short period of time. The Democratic Alliance (DA) is now challenging this, as it is calling for the agency to extend the period to allow for more payments to be made. 

On Thursday, the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) stated what beneficiaries need to bring along when they collect their grant payment at the post office.

If your application for the R350 grant offered through Sassa was rejected, you might have a chance to appeal. Sassa and the Department of Social Development are working on an appeal system after many complained about delays and their applications being rejected on an unfair basis. 

ANC Youth League has said that they want the R350 grant distributed by Sassa during lockdown to be increased to provide for unemployed youth more.
