Does SASSA money expire if not withdrawn 2023-2024

The South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) is advising beneficiaries to avoid crowded areas and desist from withdrawing all of their money at once or simultaneously during the first few days of the month.

This is due to the fact that criminals and thieves target helpless people at these periods, claims Sassa.

According to Senzeni Ngubeni, a representative for Sassa, the new Sassa gold cards operate similarly to existing bank cards.

Beneficiaries won’t face any consequences for not using up all of their account balances. The account’s remaining funds will continue to be secure.

Anytime during the month, depending on the beneficiary’s needs, monies may be withdrawn.
