What to Do If Your Payment Is Late

Updating Your Banking Details
Beneficiaries who wish to update their banking details can do so at any SASSA office, via the SASSA online portal at sassa.gov.za, or by calling the helpline. Changes typically take one payment cycle to reflect. SASSA warns the public to be vigilant of fraudsters who offer to update banking details on behalf of beneficiaries.
