SASSA APPLICATION STATUSES AND THEIR MEANINGS



When applying for SASSA grants, including the COVID-19 Social Relief of Distress
grant, applicants may encounter various application statuses. Understanding what
each status means can help applicants determine where they are in the process
and if any additional action is required.

EXPECTED SASSA APPLICATION PROCESSING TIMELINES

The South African Social Security Agency aims to process non-disability grant
applications within 90 days and disability grant applications within 30 days.
However, the actual timeline can vary depending on several factors.

 * One is which SASSA center handles your application, as some may have more
   staff and resources to process claims faster than others.
 * The type of grant you applied for also matters, as some may require more
   verification steps.
 * How quickly you submit any additional documents or information, SASSA
   requests can impact processing times, too. If they ask for something and you
   provide it within a week versus waiting a few months, that can move your
   application along faster.
 * Current application volumes and queues at your SASSA center can also affect
   timelines if they face a backlog. The best advice is to call the SASSA
   helpline if your application exceeds the standard service timelines without
   receiving an outcome. Checking in with them can help determine the status and
   see if any additional steps are needed from your side to complete the
   processing.

Being proactive and communicating with SASSA about your application status can
potentially speed up the process.


SASSA STATUS CHECK FOR R350 PAYMENT DATES FOR 2024 – 2025

There is no fixed schedule that says grants must be paid on a specific date of
the month. The payment date depends on factors like processing time. However,
the Schedule of payment dates for the year 2024 -2025 is given below. Read
in-depth about Sassa Payment Dates and schedule.

The South African government has not chosen a single date for giving out grant
money. If you qualify for a grant in a certain month, you will get the payment
sometime that month. The payday can vary each month. 

To check when your grant money for each month will be paid, look on the SASSA
website. There you can see your grant status.

SASSA UPDATE FREQUENCY: TRACKING SASSA STATUS UPDATES

SASSA gives updates on grant payments and application status every month. They
want people to know if they will get money or if their application is
progressing.

These monthly updates normally come before the pay dates for that month. SASSA
announces the payment dates for the next month at the end of each month.

There is no set date every month for people to get their grants. SASSA will
share the schedule before each month starts.

People who should get grants will get financial aid for each month they qualify.

Everyone needs to check their status every month to see if they will get a
payment that month. This helps make sure you get your money on time.

It is very important to look at the payment dates from SASSA. This is so you
know when to expect money in your bank account or your SASSA card.

Checking dates helps people get their grants on time each month. The status
updates let people know if they will continue getting a monthly grant.


REASONS FOR DECLINED SASSA GRANT APPLICATIONS?

Getting rejected for a SASSA grant can be disappointing. But, it’s crucial to
grasp the reasons behind the rejection of your application. This knowledge can
help you fix any issues and successfully reapply. Let’s have a look at some of
the common reasons:

 * NSFAS Support/Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) – Applicants who already
   receive support from NSFAS or UIF may not qualify for additional SASSA
   grants.
 * Incorrect Information – Not giving accurate or full details in your
   application may result in disqualification. Applicants must ensure all
   details provided are accurate.
 * Incomplete Application – Ensure you submit all required information and
   documents to complete your application for consideration. Missing information
   will result in declined applications.
 * Dependency Criteria – Grants like the Child Support Grant have criteria
   regarding legal dependents. Not meeting the dependency requirements will lead
   to declined applications.
 * Residency Requirements – Applicants must meet residency requirements related
   to citizenship and length of stay in South Africa. Foreign nationals with
   insufficient time living in the country may not qualify.
 * Disqualification by Law – Applicants who have been legally disqualified due
   to fraud convictions or other factors will have applications declined.
 * Age Requirements – Grants like the Older Person’s Grant have minimum age
   requirements. Applications from individuals below the age criteria will be
   declined.
 * Verification Failure – Supporting documentation must be validated. Invalid or
   insufficient verification documents will lead to declined applications.
 * Means Test – Applicants must fall below specified income thresholds.
   Individuals exceeding financial criteria will not qualify for means-tested
   grants.
 * Administrative Errors – Incorrect data capture, processing delays, or other
   internal issues can lead to declined applications.




WHAT HAPPENS AFTER SUBMITTING AN SASSA APPLICATION?

After you submit your SASSA grant application, the agency starts a verification
process. They will check your name, surname, and ID number against the
Department of Home Affairs records.

Your ID number also gets cross-checked with databases from other agencies like
the Unemployment Insurance Fund, South African Revenue Service, and the National
Student Financial Aid Scheme.

Once this verification process finishes, you will receive notification of the
results. This will tell you if your SASSA application was approved or declined.

The notification should explain the detailed reason behind the approval or
decline. This provides transparency into how the decision was made.

To verify the status of your application online, you can track it randomly on
the website. You can also call the SASSA phone number at 0800 60 10 11 and
follow the prompts to get status updates.

Knowing about this verification process helps you understand what happens after
submitting your SASSA application. You can then take the right next steps based
on whether it was approved or declined.


HOW TO GET YOUR SRD GRANT PAYMENT AFTER STATUS CHECK? – SASSA CANCELLATION R350

SASSA releases the payment schedule for each month at the end of the previous
month. You can only collect your grant money after doing a status check and
getting an SMS saying your payment for that month is confirmed.

 * If you provided bank details when applying for the SRD grant, the money will
   be deposited directly into your account.
 * If you did not provide bank details, you could collect the cash from your
   local Post Office branch or a SASSA partner retailer like Pick n Pay,
   Shoprite, Boxer, Checkers, Usave, or Spar.

For those without bank accounts, you can pick up – cash from

 * post offices
 * Pick-N-Pay stores
 * Boxer stores
 * A bank mobile money transfer is another option.

The grant money becomes available once you get the SMS that says your monthly
payment has been made.

By checking the monthly payment schedule, doing a status check, and knowing your
payment method, you can smoothly get your SRD grant funds after confirmation.
Having the right information helps ensure you can access your grant money
through direct deposit, at approved retailers, or via mobile transfer.


HOW TO RECEIVE YOUR SASSA GRANT THROUGH BANK ACCOUNT

To get your SASSA grant deposited into a bank account, visit your nearest post
office or bank to open a new account if needed. You can also use an existing
account you already have.

Next, get a SASSA Annexure C form for Request for Bank Payment. Have the post
office or bank fill out and stamp this form.

Afterwards, deliver the filled and stamped SASSA form and your banking
information to the nearest SASSA office. This gives them the necessary details
to deposit your grant money directly into your bank account every month.

Have A Look At: SASSA Change Banking Details

Once SASSA has your bank account details, your monthly grant funds will be paid
electronically into your account. This allows secure and convenient access to
your grant without needing to collect cash payments.

Following these steps ensures you can get your SASSA grant through bank deposit
each month. Submitting the right paperwork links your grant to your bank account
for easy direct payment.


SASSA PAYMENT STATUS CHECK ON GOVCHAT

The Govchat app allows you to check the status of your SASSA grant payments
easily. Govchat is available as a free download from the Google Play or Apple
App Store.

Once you have the app, open it and select the “SASSA Status” option. This will
connect you to the SASSA chatbot.

Through the chatbot, you can inquire about the status of your grant payments.
Simply type in your question or query. The Govchat SASSA bot will respond with
the latest information on your payment status.

You can also contact SASSA directly through the Govchat app by selecting the SRD
option and emailing srd@sassa.gov.za. Or visit the SRD website at
www.srd.sassa.gov.za for status updates.

The Govchat app makes checking your SASSA grant payment status quick and easy.
With just a few taps, you can get the latest status information through the
user-friendly chatbot or connect directly with SASSA representatives.


SASSA PAYMENT NOT RECEIVED

Many people rely on the SASSA grant of R350 each month. This money helps them
buy food, pay rent, and care for other needs. But sometimes there are problems,
and you don’t get your SASSA money on time. Don’t worry! Here are some tips on
what to do.

CHECK IF YOUR DETAILS ARE RIGHT

First, check that SASSA has your correct phone number, address, and bank
details. If any detail is wrong, the money can’t reach you! Log in to your SASSA
account or visit your nearest office. Make sure all your details are correct.

BE PATIENT

It takes time for SASSA to process payments for millions of people. Give it some
days after the payment date. Weekends and holidays can also cause a delay. Be
patient for a few more days before taking further steps.

CALL POSTBANK

If you still don’t get the money after some days, call the PostBank helpline.
Tell them your SASSA reference number. They can check the status of your
payment. If there is a technical issue, they can fix it so you get your money.

CHECK YOUR SASSA STATUS

Make sure your grant is still active and has not been canceled. Call the SASSA
call center or visit an office. Inform them you didn’t get the payment. They
will check and update your status.

GET HELP FROM SASSA

If you urgently need help with a missed payment, call the SASSA helpline on 0800
60 10 11. It is a free number. Explain your situation. They will assist you to
sort out the issue quickly.

These steps will help you get your SASSA money if the payment is delayed or
missed. The money is there to assist you. With some patience and checking, you
can access it.


HOW TO CHECK YOUR SASSA MONEY BALANCE IN 2024

The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) provides monthly grants to
people in need. As a recipient, you can check your remaining balance to properly
budget. In 2024, there are a few easy ways to do this on your phone. 

You can use USSD by dialing _120_3210# or _120_69277# and following the menu
prompts. 

Another method is to save the SASSA WhatsApp number 082 046 8553, message
“SASSA”, reply “Status”, and send your ID to receive your balance via SMS. 

You can also download the SASSA SRD Grant app, register with your details, and
login to view your balance. 

If you receive your grant through EasyPay, you can check your balance by
visiting a Net1 branch, logging into online banking, using the mobile app, or
dialing _120_3737# to do a mobile transaction. Checking often helps manage your
grant money wisely.


WHY DOES DELAY OCCUR IN GRANT PAYMENTS IN SASSA?

Millions of South Africans rely on social grants from SASSA every month. This
money helps them survive and take care of basic needs. But sometimes there are
delays and the money does not arrive on time. This can cause stress and problems
for grant beneficiaries. 

Here are some common reasons why SASSA payments can be late.



LOTS OF APPLICATIONS

SASSA gets a huge number of grant applications daily. All these applications
must be processed and approved before payments can be made. When there is a
flood of new applications, it takes longer to process each one. This causes
delays in payment.

CHECKS AND VERIFICATION

To prevent fraud, SASSA does thorough checks before approving applications. They
verify the applicant’s identity, income status, disability status, and other
details. Extra time is needed to get info and complete verification if anything
is unclear or missing. This holds up the application.

TECHNICAL ISSUES

The systems used by SASSA to process payments can sometimes have technical
issues. Computer errors, network problems, power failures – many things can go
wrong with technology. When tech issues happen, payments get held up.

PUBLIC HOLIDAYS

Weekends and public holidays mean SASSA offices are closed. Application
processing and grant payments also pause during these days. This can result in
delays depending on when holidays fall.

ADMINISTRATIVE DELAYS

Mistakes in capturing beneficiary data, missing paperwork, staff shortages –
many administrative issues can crop up. These problems lead to delays in
processing applications and issuing grant payments.

SASSA aims to pay approved grants expediently. But considering the large scale
of the grant system, some delays are inevitable. If your money is late, be
patient for a few more days and check with SASSA before taking further steps.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR SASSA R350 GRANT APPLICATION STATUS

After submitting an application for the SASSA R350 grant, tracking the status
online is important to determine where your application stands. Familiarizing
yourself with the different application statuses and what they indicate can
clarify what to expect next and if any additional steps need to be taken.




R350 GRANT STATUS PENDING

The COVID-19 R350 grant from SASSA aims to provide financial relief, but many
applicants see their status pending for weeks after applying. This delay is due
to the high volume of applications and the thorough verification process. 

SASSA checks applicant details against databases to identify valid applicants,
which takes time. You will receive an SMS notification if approved or rejected.
If status remains pending after applying, you are still in the queue waiting to
be verified. 

To resolve a pending status, wait 90 days after applying, then contact SASSA to
escalate and check your application. Provide any documents to help verify
details faster. 

Tips to avoid delays include submitting accurate information, applying online to
reduce errors, and being patient, as the process does take time due to overload
on SASSA. Hopefully these tips will help understand and resolve a pending R350
grant status.

For in-depth details please have a look at Sassa pending status


WHY SASSA STATUS FAILED?

A “Failed” status after submitting your SASSA grant application can occur for a
few key reasons. Identity verification failure is common, due to incorrect
details or incomplete information in the application. To resolve, access your
application and carefully correct any errors before resubmitting. 

Another reason is an incomplete application missing required fields or
documents. Review all sections to fill any missing details. 

Technical errors with the SASSA website can also lead to failure. Verify your
application is complete, then wait and recheck status after 6-12 hours. 

If your status still shows failed after addressing errors, consider submitting
an appeal to SASSA for reconsideration within 30 days of rejection. 

Provide accurate details in the appeal form. SASSA reviews appeals monthly so
the process can take up to 30 days. 

Identifying the specific failure reason, correcting errors, and appealing can
get your application back on track for approval through persistence.


WHY SASSA STATUS DECLINED?

If your SASSA grant application is declined, it is for specific reasons. A main
one is failing the means test, which checks if your income and assets are below
thresholds to qualify. For the R350 COVID grant, your bank balance must be under
R624 monthly. 

Exceeding income limits or having assets above allowed values will also lead to
a declined status. If you already receive UIF, NSFAS or other benefits, your
application may be declined to avoid duplication. A change in unemployment
status or not meeting age criteria for certain grants can also cause a decline. 

If your status is declined, first review the reasons in the notification
message. Then take steps to address those issues before reapplying to improve
your chances of approval. 

Being aware of common decline reasons allows you to take corrective action and
potentially get approved upon reapplying.


UNDERSTANDING THE SASSA R350 GRANT RECONSIDERATION PROCESS

If your SASSA COVID-19 R350 grant application was rejected unfairly, you can
request a reconsideration. First, review your initial application and identify
any inaccurate details submitted. When disputing the rejection, provide complete
and accurate information by closely following the reconsideration guidelines on
the SASSA website. Submit corrected details and any documents needed.
Communicate with SASSA if you have queries. Once accurate data is provided, the
process can take up to 30 days.

Be patient. Carefully adhering to the guidelines and supplying precise details
increases your chance of overturning an unfair rejection. Submitting correct
details proves your eligibility and helps get approved upon reconsideration.


MANAGING YOUR SASSA R350 GRANT APPEAL AND APPROVAL

The COVID-19 R350 grant aims to provide relief for unemployed South Africans
facing financial hardship. If your application is declined, you can file an
appeal to the Independent Tribunal for Social Assistance Appeals (ITSAA) within
90 days. 

ITSAA takes 60-90 days to evaluate R350 grant appeals. SASSA has an online
appeal process – you need to access the website, provide credentials, get a PIN,
select the month, attach documents, and submit the appeal. 

Reasons an appeal may be rejected include identity failure, existing grants,
NSFAS/UIF support, employment status, age, income level, or deceased status. If
your appeal is declined, the only remaining option is to pursue judicial review
in High Court. Understand the exact rejection reason to address any issues
specifically. 

Following the online process meticulously and providing accurate documents gives
you the best likelihood of a successful appeal.




WHAT TO DO IF SASSA APPROVED BUT NO SMS RECEIVED

Getting approved for SASSA grant provides much-needed financial relief. But
sometimes your status may show as approved online, yet you do not receive the
SMS notification. This can prevent you from accessing the payment. 

Here is what to do in such a situation:

POSSIBLE REASONS

There are a few reasons why you may not get the SMS:

 * Incorrect phone number or contact details in your SASSA application.
 * Typos or errors in the details you provided.
 * Low funds and lack of airtime on your phone.
 * Network issues causing SMS delivery failures.
 * Technical glitches in the SASSA system.

WHY THIS IS CONCERNING

Not getting the SMS can stop you from withdrawing your grant from the Post
Office, retail stores, etc. So, it’s an issue that needs resolution.

STEPS TO FIX THE PROBLEM

Here are some steps you can take to fix the problem:

 * Wait 2-3 days in case there are delays in sending the SMS.
 * Call your bank to check for any potential issues from their end.
 * Verify your phone number is correctly entered in SASSA records.
 * Contact the SASSA call center on 0800 601 011 for assistance.
 * If it persists, visit your nearest SASSA office for help.

IMPORTANCE OF RESOLVING THIS

It’s crucial that you follow up persistently to get this issue fixed. Otherwise,
you will not be able to access your approved funds and use them for your urgent
needs.

Taking proactive measures as soon as possible will help ensure you get the SMS
and can withdraw your grant money. Do not delay seeking assistance.

The “SRD Grant is Active Now” status indicates that your application for the
Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant has been approved by SASSA. This means you
are now eligible to start receiving the temporary financial relief offered
through this grant to assist during challenging times.

With the SRD grant status being marked as active in your name, it signifies the
commencement of monthly payouts that you will start receiving going forward.
Payments are scheduled to be disbursed from as early as the next month itself,
following the activation of your grant status.

As per standard procedures, the grant money will be paid out on specific paydays
pre-decided and communicated by SASSA. As an SRD grant beneficiary, you need to
take note of these pay dates and follow the stipulated process to access your
funds in a smooth manner every month.

It is crucial for you to keep yourself updated on the payment schedule to avoid
any delays or issues in receiving your SRD grant money on time. You also need to
follow any other instructions provided by the agency to ensure there are no
disruptions to your payouts now that your grant status is marked active.

WHEN DOES THE SASSA R350 GRANT END OR EXPIRE?

The COVID-19 Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant of R350 per month from SASSA
has provided a crucial lifeline for millions of South Africans during difficult
times. Many beneficiaries rely on the grant for their basic needs. An important
question they have is when this R350 grant will end or expire.

In a press conference in late 2022, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced an
extension of the R350 grant. He emphasized the grant’s pivotal role in enabling
around 7 million vulnerable citizens to meet essential daily needs.

The President confirmed that the SASSA R350 grant will now remain available
until March 2024. This extension gives continued support to individuals and
families who depend on the monthly funds for food, transport, utilities, and
other basics.

The announcement indicates the government will try to secure additional funds to
maintain the grant beyond March 2024 as well. The goal is to assess the
possibility of further extensions to provide ongoing relief to financially
distressed citizens.


IS THE SASSA GRANT EXTENDED TO MARCH 2025?

The Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant provides essential support to millions
of South Africans facing financial hardship. An important question is, has this
R350 SASSA grant been extended to March 2025?



The authorities have officially announced an extension of the SRD grant beyond
its initial lapse date. This demonstrates their commitment to keep supporting
individuals still impacted by the persisting pandemic.

The grant has been extended until March 2025. For those already receiving the
SASSA grant, it is encouraged to perform a status check. This will keep you
informed about disbursement updates and any changes pertaining to your grant.

Remaining aware through regular status checks ensures you are up-to-date on the
grant’s extension in terms of timelines and payment schedules. This promotes
transparency for beneficiaries depending on the funds.

The extension until March 2025 is a reassuring move confirming authorities’
recognition of the ongoing need for financial aid through the pandemic.
Therefore, Checking your SASSA status periodically is advised.
