The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) began paying out June 2025 social grants this week, with Older Persons Grants having already been paid on Tuesday, 3 June 2025.
Today, Wednesday, 4 June, Disability Grants are being paid across the country. Grant recipients are reminded to check their accounts or visit designated pay points only after receiving confirmation that their funds are available — either via SMS or official banking notifications.
Full June 2025 SASSA Payment Schedule
- Older Persons Grant – Paid on Tuesday, 3 June 2025
- Disability Grant – Being paid today, Wednesday, 4 June 2025
- Children’s Grants & All Other Grants – Coming up on Thursday, 5 June 2025
SASSA has emphasized that beneficiaries do not need to rush to collect their money on the day it’s paid — once deposited, it will remain available.
❌ No Double Payments in June
Rumors about a double grant payout in June have gone viral on social media. However, SASSA spokesperson Paseka Letsatsi confirmed that these claims are false. Grant amounts remain unchanged since the March 2025 increases and the next scheduled adjustments will only take place in October.
How to Stay Safe and Informed
- Avoid withdrawing your full grant amount in one visit. Use SASSA cards at retailers for safer access.
- Never share your SASSA card or PIN with anyone.
- Follow official SASSA pages or reliable news platforms like Pondoland Times for accurate updates.
