This article contains details on Sassa grants for the 2024–2025 fiscal year.
- South Africa’s government gives social assistance to needy individuals. In South Africa, the SASSA is in charge of social grants. Social handouts are provided to those who are on the edge of going hungry and require government support to improve their standard of living. Typically, these are the elderly, individuals with disabilities, and parents of young children. You must be a South African citizen, a valid permanent resident, or a refugee to be eligible for a social grant (proof of such status must be provided). They must also be South African citizens.
What is a means test?
- There is a “means test” for some social benefits, including child support, disability, care dependency, and social relief of distress. Based on your income and assets, SASSA will use the means test to determine if you qualify for a social grant. Your eligibility for a grant intended for people who cannot afford to live independently is determined by the means test.
Care dependency allowance
Care dependency grants may be available to parents with disabled children who are full-time workers. What amount of money will be distributed overall as part of this grant?
- R1 860 per child, per month.
How do you know if you’re approved for the grant?
- The child must be under the age of 18 and permanently incapacitated, as established by a medical officer, to be eligible for the care dependency award. If you’re married, you and your spouse must both meet the qualifying requirements for the means test. The articles listed below will help you with your Sassa application.
