SASSA has announced a R10 boost to all social grants starting November 2025. This change comes from the 2025/26 national budget and follows the first round of increases from April 2025. The government is trying to help people who are struggling with rising prices. They want to make things better for those who need support as daily costs keep going up. This small increase aims to give some relief to people who depend on these grants for their basic needs.
New Social Grant Amounts from November 2025
SASSA will add R10 to all main social grants starting in November. The new payment amounts will be:
– People aged 60 to 74 will now get R2,320 instead of R2,310
– Those who are 75 and older will receive R2,340 instead of R2330
– People with disabilities and those who need care will get R2,320 instead of R2,310 War veterans will now receive R2340 instead of R2,330
The increase is small but officials say it helps support people in need. They want to make sure everyone who needs help gets it.

Understanding the R10 Grant Adjustment
Some South Africans think the increase is too small compared to inflation. But SASSA says this shows how the government keeps helping people in need. The R10 increase may be small but it proves they want to support poor people even when money is tight. SASSA might give more money later if the economy gets better and they have enough funds. They also promised that everyone will get their grants on time in November because their systems are ready.
Steps Every Beneficiary Should Take Now
SASSA asks all people who get grants to look at their payment details. They should also check if their bank information is correct in the SASSA system. People who get their money straight to their bank accounts will see the new payment amount on their normal payment date.
