Why Change R350 Payment From Post Office To Bank Account?

You need to change your R350 payment from post office to bank account because SASSA is no longer paying R350 grants through the South African Post Office (SAPO).

So, if you collect your R350 from the post office, you’ll have to change to bank account.

Although there are other SASSA R350 grant payment method options you can choose from.

See Here Is Where To Collect Your SASSA R350 Grant Payment for all the SASSA R350 payment methods you can use to collect your SRD grant payment.

Again, this process works the same when you want to change SASSA R350 payment from your bank account to your e-wallet Cash Send.

Already, we have an article on How To Change SASSA Banking Details for those who are already using their bank account to receive R350 payments but want to switch from their current bank to another bank.

Will SASSA Verifies My Banking Details Before Payment?

Yes, SASSA will verify the banking details you submit for the R350 payment. When you change R350 grant payment from post office to bank account, SASSA will have to verify your bank account details.

Thus, SASSA will try to verify to check if the bank account details you have submitted are accurate and can receive R350 payment in your name.

We do recommend that you read How Long Does SASSA Take To Verify Banking Details? to know how SASSA verifies your banking details and for how long it will take before your R350 payment is approved and paid via your bank account.

How Do I Transfer My R350 To My Bank Account?

Can The R350 Grant Be Paid Into My Bank Account?

Yes, SASSA SRD R350 grant can be paid into your bank account. However, you will have to submit your bank account details to SASSA for verification and approval.

Once your details are checked and approved, SASSA will pay your R350 into your bank account.

Again, the bank account must be registered in your name to match the details of your information in the SASSA database.

If your bank information does not match when SASSA verifies your bank details, you’ll not be paid and your application will be pending.

You should read What Can I Do If My SRD Grant Is Approved But No Payment? for a detailed guide when your R350 grant is approved but no payment is made.

How Long Does SASSA Take To Pay R350 Grant Into Bank Account?

I have approved payments since August 2022 to March 2023 but still no pay date on the SRD website. I have opened up a bank account and submitted my details but still haven’t recieved any payments. Nothing on the SRD system shows my banking details are being verified or even approved yet. Please assist

The reason you have not received a payment date is that your bank details have not been verified yet. Once they are verified, you’ll get a pay date to collect your grant.

Yes, SASSA has to verify your details when you try to change your payment method. However, if you think it has taken longer to be approved, you can go to NSFAS office to make an inquiry.

This issue is very technical. It could be a problem with the srd website. So, I suggest you first change your payment method to bank account payment and see if it works.

Yes, submit your bank account for SASSA to verify and approve your account details so that they pay your R350 directly into your bank account.

Yes, SASSA says they’re still processing all pending payments. Again, before you get your pay date, SASSA has to review and verify your payment details.

So, you should submit your bank account details for verification. If you had already, there’s nothing to worry about. SASSA will process it and give you payment date.

First, SASSA has explained why approved R350 grant with payment date gets declined later. You should read Why Is My Approved SASSA R350 Declined for details.

Second, with your number, you can update your contact details via the srd website.

You can first collect our money at Usave and later change your payment method to bank account. Again, you have to change from the post office so that you’ll not go through any stress for the following months.

Yes, you can only check and or request an update of your payment details once every 24 hours. So, if you have tried earlier, you’ll have to wait for 24 hours before you can try to check again.

First, before SASSA sends you the payment date, they will try to verify and approve your payment details to check if it matches what they have in their system. So, we advise that you provide all the required payment details that are accurate for SASSA to easily verify and approve.

Second, if you have done the first part, then there’s nothing to worry about. According to SASSA, there are lots of SRD R350 payments still pending and they’re processing all payments and will pay in July. So, let’s hope they do pay as they’ve said.

You must use your own bank account. SASSA will try to verify your bank details to check if they match your details in their system. If they don’t, they will not approve your payment.

SASSA usually give the reason for their decision to decline your R350 grant. You’ll see it when you check your status. Again, once your grant is declined, the only option is to appeal for reconsideration.

If the reason is alternative source of income identified, we do suggest you read What Does SASSA SRD Alternative Income Source Identified Decline Status Mean?

To remind you, SASSA is no longer paying through Post Office anymore for now. So, you can collect your R350 at a merchant store like Boxer, Checkers, Usave, and also at Pick n Pay. Also, you can use your bank account to receive your grant.
