Are you a NSFAS-funded student at a TVET college? Don’t miss out on your May 2025 payments. The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) has released key information regarding TVET student allowance and accommodation payments for May 2025. These payments are influenced by banking institution processing times, so it’s essential to stay updated.

 

NSFAS May 2025 TVET Allowance and Accommodation Payments: Important Dates and Details

NSFAS Accommodation Payments for TVET Students: 23–26 May 2025

According to the latest update, NSFAS is processing accommodation payments for May 2025. These funds will be transferred directly to accommodation providers and not to the students themselves.

  • Payment Schedule: Between Friday, 23 May 2025 and Monday, 26 May 2025

The exact date depends on each provider’s banking institution and how quickly they process the payment.

 

NSFAS Allowance Payments for TVET Students: 23–25 May 2025

In a separate announcement, NSFAS confirmed that student allowances—which may include transport, meal, and personal care allowances—will be disbursed during a slightly shorter window.

  • Allowance Payment Window: Between Friday, 23 May 2025 and Sunday, 25 May 2025

Again, the timing depends on the bank’s processing time, so some students may receive funds earlier than others.

 

Ensure Your Banking Details Are Up to Date

Both posters emphasize the importance of updating your banking information. Incorrect or outdated banking details can delay or block your NSFAS payments.

  • Action Required: Log into the official NSFAS online portal and update your banking details to avoid payment issues.
  • Pro Tip: Double-check your account number, branch code, and account type before submission.
