As May 2025 begins, SASSA beneficiaries across South Africa are once again checking their grant payment statuses—especially with the new R370 SRD grant increase now in full effect.
Google search trends show massive demand for terms like “SASSA status check,” “May payment dates,” and “R350 to R370 grant.” According to the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA), Older Persons Grants will be paid first in early May, followed by Disability Grants and then the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) R370 grants.
Many applicants have reported delays or “pending” statuses on the SASSA portal. If your status hasn’t updated or you’re unsure of your payment date, don’t worry—Pondoland Times has you covered. Visit SASSA website for:
