SASSA Banking Details (Main Grants)

To change or confirm your bank account for SASSA grants (Old Age, Disability, etc.), use the Annexure C form. Here’s how.

Steps

1. Get Annexure C (Banking Details) form at SASSA
2. Take it to your bank to stamp and confirm your account
3. Submit the stamped form at a SASSA office
4. Allow one payment cycle for the change to take effect

Who can change the bank?

• The beneficiary (the person who gets the grant) must change the details. SASSA won’t pay into someone else’s account.
• If the beneficiary cannot go in person, appoint a procurator at SASSA with proper documents.

Tips

• The bank account must be in the beneficiary’s name
• Keep your phone number up to date for notifications
• Using a bank account is more convenient than cash collection
• If you switch from a SASSA/Postbank card to a private bank, normal bank ATM fees apply
