The Sassa Payment Dates for R350 Grant for February 2023 haven’t been confirmed yet. There is no fixed payment date for those who receive their SASSA SRD grant payments through the bank account. These payment dates are no longer applicable to the post office payout system. Beneficiaries can receive their grants as soon as they receive confirmation of payment from SASSA.
Beneficiaries are urged to wait for an SMS to say that they can collect their R350 grant and should not head out to collect it if they haven’t received an SMS. If you don’t have any banking details, individuals can collect your grant cash from Pick-N-Pay, Shoprite, Checkers, USave or Boxer stores.
The SASSA SRD R350 will be paid to beneficiaries from August 2021 until March 2024.
