Can I collect my SASSA grant from any province?

What happens if I miss my collection day?
You can usually still collect your grant at a later date within the same month, but it may be delayed.
Can someone else collect my grant for me?
Only if you have issued them a power of attorney or they are a registered proxy with SASSA.
