As per SASSA, a special provision has been made to ensure that, as from the 2026, the period of payment for the Disability Grant will span until early in January to accommodate the first disabled persons in finding the cash they need upon time. The Disable Grant in itself is only one of the different social grants that are provided to people facing various levels of incapacity.
One of the essential facilities that comes with the Older Persons Grant. Permanent disability grant. SASSA provides other essential services every month to permanent disability-affected members who are unable to earn a steady income. The reason why the service is commenced as early as possible is aimed at making it our dedication to assist disability-affected populations early in order to relieve the financial strain placed on their medical and survival needs.
Children’s Grant and other Payment Dates
Children’s Grants will be paid out to the Child Support Grant, Foster Child Grant, and Care Dependency Grant, following Older Persons and Disability Grants.

Therefore, the payment for January 2026 will help all families take care of basic necessities, such as food, school, and transport at the beginning of the year.
SRD R370 Grant Payment Date
Ultra-desolation grants have their base set at R320 per month and are handled differently. The SRD payment footprint and system, as opposed to permanent grants, sees these being catered to later in the month. These benefits no longer come through in one block on one day but are part of a single payment window spread over days. They must also check their payment status and be assured of the payment date.
What You Need to Remember
SASSA reminds all grantees to keep their details up to date both militating toward receiving payments on time. This means that changes should be done considerably ahead of payment cycle initiation. This should also serve as a warning to claimants to stay away from scams and treat official SASSA notifications as the only feasible directions.
