Social Security payment schedule 2025 calendar, Sassa Payments For October 2025

Sassa payments, also known as social grants, are financial assistance programs provided by the South African government to help vulnerable citizens meet their basic needs. The grants are managed by the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) and aim to alleviate poverty and improve the quality of life of the country’s most vulnerable groups.

There are various types of Sassa grants available, including the Child Support Grant, Disability Grant, and the much-talked-about R350 Grant, which was introduced in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

One of the most significant challenges faced by Sassa beneficiaries is knowing when their payments will be made. To address this, Sassa releases a monthly payment schedule to guide beneficiaries on when to expect their funds.
