The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) has announced that COVID-19 SRD grant payments for September 2025 will be made between September 25 and 29, 2025.

Beneficiaries are urged to ensure that their banking details are correct and verified to avoid delays in receiving their payments.

For those who have been approved but have not yet received their funds, SASSA advises checking if banking details are pending verification or if the account is on referred status.

Updates and amendments can be made through the SRD website or directly via the self-service portal.

Once banking details are confirmed, payment will be processed in the next payment cycle. If the payment date has passed and funds have not been received, beneficiaries are encouraged to contact the SASSA call centre, as the issue could be related to anomalies with their bank account.

SASSA continues to emphasise the importance of keeping personal and banking information up to date to ensure timely access to support grants.
