SASSA Payment Dates 2021 – Introduction
SASSA payment dates are a very important and a key event for all SASSA Grants Recipients across the country.
Indeed thus their pay dates for the ensuing months as they get ready to cash out and buy groceries and other few things for their livelihoods.
It is the time Older people get their monthly stipend and make some payments either for hospitals or food items or for insurance or for rent. Mothers also use the child support grant to buy basic needs for the kid.
Every here and then, most of these beneficiaries of the grant want to know their payment dates for the particular year.
Below you will find the payment dates officially released by SASSA.
It must, however, be noted that the SASSA payment dates have been slightly adjusted due to the global pandemic. Prior to the pandemic, payments were made at the beginning of the month unless the month starts on weekends or holidays, then it is shifted to the next working day.
But after the adjustment, in an effort to reduce the number of people going to the various pay points to collect their cash, SASSA decided Old Age Grant, Disability grant and Child Support Grant Payment are made on different dates in order.
In view of this, the Old Age or Pension Grant are done first usually starting on the 3rd of every month, follows by Disability grant and follows by the child support grant paid together with other grants including foster care grants, etc.
The payments are made every month, so in this case June have the following payment dates for various categories of grants.
We have listed below the payment dates from June to December 2021. It must be noted that all grants especially child support grants, associated with old Age grant or disability grants will be paid on the same dates for the respective grants.

SASSA has always advised that there is no need for a panic withdrawal or be pressured to withdraw the grants on the same day of payment as the money will still be available. This will provide an opportunity to reduce overcrowding at the various Post office and other pay points. Due the global pandemic, SASSA as stakeholder on the management of the virus, has made this arrangements to make room for social distance.
