SASSA Grant Suspensions Alert: Check Your Grant Status And Submit An Appeal For August 2025

by

SASSA Grant Suspension 2025 : Thousands of South Africans rely on monthly SASSA grants to support themselves and their families. But, in August 2025, some beneficiaries will have the experienced spontaneous halting of their payments, much to the concern of many for the next expected income. In case your grant has been suspended, prevent panic; there are some clear steps to check your status and appeal. 

Reasons Why SASSA Grants Will Be Suspended

SASSA can suspend grants for a number of reasons, mostly related to eligibility checks. They include:

  • Outdated personal information, such as ID numbers, contact details, or bank accounts.
  • Other earnings alleged to be picked up by SASSA systems, leading to an unverified income status.
  • Failure to provide reconfirmation of details within the set timeframe.
  • Sets of measures to avoid fraud ensuring that payments are made to genuine beneficiaries only.

Although these checks are genuine attempts at protecting the system, they sometimes lead to delays and errors hurting innocent beneficiaries.

How To Check If Your Grant Is Suspended

To know your status if you did not receive the August 2025 payment:

  • Visit the SASSA SRD website or open the Moya app to check your grant status.
  • Dial the USSD code *120*3210# to check application and payment status.
  • Call the toll-free SASSA number (0800 60 10 11) to speak with an agent.
  • Check your SMS: SASSA might send you a notification that your grant has been suspended.

What must be done is speedily getting the payment into the account as soon as it does not appear.

Appealing A Suspended Grant

You may appeal if your grant was unfairly stopped. Should any of the following apply to you, then:

  • Lodge your appeal online on the SASSA SRD portal under the appeal option.
  • Include evidence of unemployment, updated ID copies, or bank statements.
  • Verify your details again to ensure SASSA has the correct information on your personal and financial situation.

Remember, you must appeal within 30 days of the suspension. The earlier this is done, the sooner consideration can be given for payment reinstatement.
