SASSA has confirmed that eligible beneficiaries could receive up to R2,110 in total grant payments for June 2025. This amount is not a new standalone grant, but rather a combined total that includes adjusted values across different categories such as the Older Persons Grant, Disability Grant, Child Support Grant, and others. These grants play a crucial role in helping South Africans cover essential needs like food, electricity, transport, and housing.
As inflation and the cost of living continue to climb, SASSA has slightly adjusted the value of its core grants in 2025 to provide better protection to low-income families. Beneficiaries who qualify for more than one type of assistance such as elderly caregivers looking after children may receive a combined payout of R2,110 or more depending on their individual circumstances.
Who Qualifies for the June 2025 Grants?
To receive SASSA grants in June 2025, applicants must be South African citizens, permanent residents, or legal refugees with valid documents. Each grant type has its own income threshold, age requirement, and approval process.
For example, the Older Persons Grant is available to individuals aged 60 and above who fall below a specific income cap, while the Disability Grant is for those medically certified as permanently disabled.
The eligibility process remains means-tested. This means that income, household assets, and living conditions are assessed to ensure that the support reaches the people who truly need it most. SASSA also continues to verify identities and cross-check with the Department of Home Affairs to prevent fraud or double payment.
Payment Schedule for June 2025
SASSA has officially released the grant payment dates for June 2025. These dates vary by grant type to avoid long queues and delays at pay points and to ensure smooth processing of payments. Here is the official payment calendar for June:
- Older Persons Grant will be paid on Tuesday, June 4, 2025
- Disability Grant will follow on Wednesday, June 5, 2025
- Child Support, Foster Care, and Care Dependency Grants will be released on Thursday, June 6, 2025
If you receive your grant through a bank account, SASSA card, Postbank, or a mobile cash pay point, the money will be available on the same day it is deposited. There is no need to withdraw the funds immediately, as they will remain in your account until used.
How Does the Total R2,110 Add Up?
Many beneficiaries wonder how the R2,110 figure is reached. It is typically the total of more than one grant paid to the same person or household. For example, a pensioner who is also caring for a foster child or dependent relative could qualify for two grants that together sum up to this amount.
Here is a breakdown of the most common grant values for June 2025:
Table: SASSA Grant Amounts – June 2025
| Grant Type | Amount (ZAR) |
|---|---|
| Older Persons (60–74 years) | R2,180 |
| Older Persons (75+ years) | R2,200 |
| Disability Grant | R2,180 |
| War Veterans Grant | R2,200 |
| Care Dependency Grant | R2,180 |
| Foster Child Grant | R1,180 |
| Child Support Grant | R530 |
| SRD Grant (Social Relief) | R350 |
A beneficiary receiving an Older Persons Grant and also responsible for a child under the Child Support Grant, for example, would receive a total of R2,180 + R530 = R2,710, which exceeds the average R2,110 mentioned. However, someone only receiving a single grant may receive less, depending on their situation.
Where to Apply or Update Your Details
If you are applying for the first time or updating your information due to changes in income, address, or household size, it is best to visit your nearest SASSA office or use the official online portal. Keep your identity documents, bank details, and proof of income or medical status up to date to avoid delays in your payment or potential suspensions.
Applicants must reapply for certain temporary grants such as the SRD R350 grant every few months, while permanent grants like Old Age or Disability require periodic verification but not reapplication unless your status changes.
