The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) has notified social grant recipients about the payment schedule for June. If you receive or know someone who receives social grants, you may be interested in the June Sassa payment dates.
The agency said payment will be made to the recipient’s bank accounts on the following days:
- Friday June 2 — old age grants;
- Monday June 5 — disability grants; and
- Tuesday June 6 — all other grants will be paid from this date, including the children’s grant.
