South Africas Social Security Agency (Sassa) has announced the payment dates for April 2026 social grants, bringing relief to over 19 million recipients. The dates, approved by the National Treasury, are as follows: older persons grants on April 2nd, disability grants on April 7th, and childrens grants on April 8th. The delay was due to routine administrative steps and final sign-off from Treasury officials. The payment schedule is designed to manage heavy demand and prevent bank system overload. Grant amounts are also increasing this April. Sassa follows specific rules for payment dates, and any shifts or delays should be addressed at the nearest local office. With the dates confirmed, millions can now budget with confidence as Sassa continues to deliver vital support.
