Why Is My Bank Details Verification Still On Pending?

Your SASSA SRD R350 banking details verification is on pending because the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) has not received confirmation of your banking details from the Department of Treasury and hence, cannot approve your bank account information ro payment.

That is why we encourage you to do SASSA R350 Application Status Check after you have applied or reapplied for the SRD R350 grant.

Again, if you check your application status and your Covid-19 Social Relief of Distress (SRD) R350 Grant application was declined, you can do a reapplication.

This is to make sure they can pay your SASSA R350 grant money through the bank account you provide them as your means of receiving your grant payments.

It is well to know that, SASSA has no interest in checking how much money you have in your bank account. Again, such information will not be provided to them.

Instead, they will only try to verify that the bank account information you have provided to them is actually yours since SASSA does not allow beneficiaries to use other people’s bank accounts to receive the SASSA R350 grant payment.

Generally, pending means, that SASSA has not processed your SRD application yet. Nonetheless, there may be other factors causing this. So we do recommend that you read Why Is My SASSA R350 Grant Still Pending? for further explanation.

SASSA has to communicate with your bank in the verification process and this may take some time. Usually the delay is how you bank responds to SASSA quicker or they do not provide your information to SASSA in time.

SASSA will have to verify and approve your payment details before giving you a payment date to collect your R350. If you have selected a payment method and have provided the required information, then there’s nothing to worry about. SASSA will verify and process your payment.

Hi, I started applying for SRD GRANT this year January. Well my application went through and active. My January to March were approved yet with no payments dates. April we had to reapply and that’s what I did and it is still pending now as the CEO said its payment will be made on July.

May also appeared and pending too, June appeared also and it is approved but still with no pay date. I submitted all the necessities to sassa website as requested even now my banking details since from January it is still pending.

What could be the delay after so many months just to only verify my banking details? Your help will be highly appreciated

Currently, SASSA has not given any specific reasons as to why verification and approval of payment information take longer. However, they have assured the public that all pending applications and payments will be processed between June and July.
You should exercise a little patience.

Two things could be the reason.

First, it’s either SASSA has not processed your application yet.

Second, it’s either there’s not enough information for SASSA to process.

Again, SASSA has asked all R350 grant beneficiaries to re-apply. We suggest you do so if you have not so that you provide the needed personal details and information as SASSA requires to measure if you qualify for the R350 grant qualification.

You are not the one who verifies your bank account. You only submit your banking details if you choose to receive your R350 through the bank payment method.

SASSA will then verify the information you provided from the bank and confirms the details matches what they have in their database.

All you can do is submit your banking details and SASSA will do the verification.
