SASSA R3,070 Grant Payment 2025 : Important news for South Africans who rely on social grant payments this September. The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) has confirmed the payments’ dates, and some recipients may be posed with more funds to the tune of R3,070.
What Is This R3,070 Grant?
The R3,070 grant has been specially put together by SASSA that targets providing further relief for households bearing increased costs. It bundles together the monthly grant plus the additional top-ups so that in vulnerable situations, the people get a little extra when it is most needed.
Who Gets The Bigger Pay-Out?
Not even all beneficiaries are entitled to the full amount of R3,070. But the following groups might be eligible:
- Older Persons who receive additional supplements.
- Veterans and severely disabled persons in need of higher support.
- Family members receiving multiple grants (for example, Foster Child and Child Support) that together amount to R3,070.
Beneficiaries should check their SASSA status through the internet, by WhatsApp, or just visit the nearest SASSA office to verify whether they qualify.
September 2025 Payment Dates
SASSA will continue its staggered payment schedule for September, to prevent the congestion of crowds around the payment sites:
- Older Persons Grant will start on 2 September 2025.
- Disability Grant will start on 3 September 2025.
- Child Support Grant and Other Grants will start on 4 September 2025.
There is never any application for the R3,070 grants; if you qualify for it, it will just reflect in your payments during the standard cycle.
Backing Up Your Status
A beneficiary can check their grant information simply by any of these three procedures:
- Online: Via the official SASSA status check portal.
