SRD SASSA STATUS CHECK

Open Official SASSA SRD Website →

To check your SASSA Status for the SRD grant, ensure you enter your 13-digit South African ID number and the registered mobile number used during your application, then click 'check status'.

Our team of social security experts monitors the South African Social Security Agency systems daily to help you navigate "Pending," "Declined," or "Approved" results. If your status check reveals a "Bank Details Pending" message or a "Failed Identity Verification" error, please utilize our banking update guide or our biometric verification portal. We prioritize your data privacy and follow strict editorial policies to ensure you receive the most authoritative and fresh information regarding your SRD grant payments and legislative extensions through 2027.

How to check SASSA SRD R370 Status

For millions of South Africans, the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant is a vital financial lifeline. Ensuring your SASSA status check is performed regularly is the only way to stay informed about your application progress, payment dates, and potential verification requirements. As of 2025/2026, the grant has been adjusted to R370, and the Department of Social Development has implemented stricter biometric and security measures to curb fraud.

Note: The SRD R370 grant has been officially extended. For more details on the legislative changes, read our update on the extension to 2027.

Check SASSA Status Online

The most efficient way to track your application is through the official digital portals. Online tracking provides real-time updates on whether your grant is Approved, Pending, or Declined.

SRD R370 Status Check

To check the status of your R370 grant, you must have the credentials used during your initial registration. The system cross-references your ID with Department of Home Affairs and bank databases.

  • Check Using ID Number: Your 13-digit South African ID number is the primary identifier. Ensure it is entered without spaces.
  • Check Using Phone Number: You must use the cell phone number that was used to submit your application. If you have lost access to this number, you will need to undergo a phone number change process.
  • Check via Official SRD Website: Visit srd.sassa.gov.za and scroll to the "Application Status" section. The platform (often referred to as the SC19 portal) is the most reliable source of truth.
  • Check via GovChat Portal: While SASSA has diversified its digital footprint, GovChat remains an alternative gateway for social services, though direct website checks are generally faster during peak periods.

Check via WhatsApp

WhatsApp provides a convenient, low-data way to interact with SASSA's automated systems. This is particularly useful for beneficiaries who prefer a conversational interface.

Official SASSA WhatsApp Number

The official verified number for SASSA enquiries is 082 046 8559. Always look for the green "verified" tick to avoid common SRD scams.

WhatsApp Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Add 082 046 8559 to your contacts.
  2. Send a message saying "SASSA".
  3. Select "Status Check" from the menu of options.
  4. Follow the prompts to provide your ID number and the registered phone number.
  5. The system will reply with your current month's status and a "Pay Day" if available.

Check via USSD Code

For users without a smartphone or internet access, the Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) method is the standard. This works on any mobile device across all South African networks.

USSD Code Format

Dial *134*565# on your phone. You will be prompted to enter your ID number. This service is generally free, but some network providers may require a minimum airtime balance of R0.01 to initiate the session.

Network Issues & Errors

If you encounter "Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code," it is usually due to network congestion during payment batch processing. Wait 30 minutes and try again. If the error persists, check if your identity verification is still valid.

Check via Call Center

If digital methods fail or if you believe your status is incorrect due to a system error, speaking to an agent is the next step.

  • SASSA Toll-Free Number: Call 0800 60 10 11.
  • Best Time to Call: To avoid long wait times, it is recommended to call between 08:00 AM and 10:00 AM on Tuesdays through Thursdays. Mondays and month-ends are typically high-volume periods.

Check via Moya App (Data-Free Option)

The Moya App is a popular choice because it allows for "data-free" messaging and service checks. Under the "Discovery" section of the app, you can find the "SASSA SRD" icon. This links directly to the SASSA database, allowing you to perform a status check without consuming your mobile data bundle.

SASSA Status Check

Managing your SASSA status check is a critical monthly task for millions of South Africans. With the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant now adjusted to R370, the South African Social Security Agency has intensified its verification processes. Regular monitoring ensures you remain informed about your application's progress, payment cycles, and any required actions like biometric verification.

Check SASSA Status Online

Online tracking is the fastest and most comprehensive method for 2025/2026. It provides a real-time window into the SASSA database, allowing you to see exactly which stage of the "Means Test" your application is in.

Note: Effective from April 2024, the grant amount is R370. Ensure you are checking for the correct period to see your current payment dates.

SRD R370 Status Check

  • Check Using ID Number: Enter your 13-digit South African ID number exactly as it appears on your identity document.
  • Check Using Phone Number: You must use the cellphone number originally registered during your application. If you have lost this number, follow the guide to update your phone number.
  • Check via Official SRD Website: Visit the SC19 portal at srd.sassa.gov.za. Scroll to the "Application Status" section to begin your query.
  • Check via GovChat Portal: You can access SASSA services via the GovChat digital platform for secondary verification if the main site is under maintenance.

Check via WhatsApp

WhatsApp remains a data-efficient tool for checking status on the move.
Official SASSA WhatsApp Number: 082 046 8559.

WhatsApp Step-by-Step Guide:
  1. Save the official number to your contacts.
  2. Send a message with the word "Status".
  3. Respond with "Yes" when prompted to check for yourself.
  4. Enter your ID number and follow the automated prompts.

Check via USSD Code

For those without internet access, USSD is the most reliable method.
USSD Code Format: Dial *134*565# or *120*3210# on your handset.

Network Issues & Errors: If you receive an "MMI Code Error," it is usually due to high traffic on the telecommunications network. Wait and try again after hours. Ensure you have at least R0.01 airtime, as some networks require a minimal balance to trigger a session.

Check via Call Center

If digital tools fail, contact the SASSA Toll-Free Number: 0800 60 10 11.
Best Time to Call: Call on Wednesday or Thursday mornings between 08:00 and 10:00 to avoid the high-volume peaks found on Mondays and at the start of each month.

Check via Moya App (Data-Free Option)

The Moya App allows you to check your status without using your data bundle. Open the app, go to "Discovery," select "SASSA Services," and enter your details. This is an excellent option for beneficiaries with zero airtime.

SASSA Status Meanings

SASSA status results are not just labels; they are instructions. Understanding these helps you resolve payment delays quickly.

🕒 PENDING

Your application is currently being cross-referenced with bank and government databases. SASSA is verifying that you do not have alternative income. No action is required unless this persists for over 90 days.

✅ APPROVED

Verification is successful! Your grant is ready. Check your payment dates. If there is no date yet, your payment is being processed in the current batch.

❌ DECLINED

The system found a reason to reject your application (e.g., UIF, NSFAS, or Income > R624). If you believe this is an error, you must lodge an appeal within 30 days.

👤 IDENTITY FAILED

Your details don't match Home Affairs records. This may require Biometric Verification. Check our identity guide to resolve typos or record mismatches.

🏦 BANK DETAILS PENDING

SASSA cannot pay you because your banking info is missing or hasn't passed verification. Immediately update your banking details to link your account.

Comprehensive Directory of All Statuses

Below is an exhaustive list of all status codes generated by the SASSA system, including less common technical responses.

Status Label Description Required Action
Application Completed Initial submission received. Wait for status to move to Pending.
Referred Internal security flag or risk detected. Perform Biometric Verification.
Debtor Overpayment detected in previous cycles. Contact Support.
Cancelled The application was stopped by user or system. See Common Issues to reinstate.
Meets Criteria Initial demographic check passed. Wait for Monthly Means Test.
Reapplication Required Current period expired or annual renewal due. Reapply Online immediately.
Appeal Pending Review by ITSAA is in progress. Check Appeal Status (Takes 60-90 days).
eKYC / Awaiting Identity Digital "Know Your Customer" check needed. Complete facial recognition via Verification Link.
Self-Exclusion Response You listed yourself as having other support. Review Eligibility Criteria.
Failed Technical error during the status query. Retry in 24 hours. See System Errors.

SASSA Appeal Process

If your SASSA status check returns a "Declined" result, it is not necessarily the final decision. The South African social security framework provides a legal recourse known as the SASSA Appeal Process. This mechanism allows beneficiaries to dispute a rejection if they believe the system has incorrectly flagged them for alternative income or existing government support.

Important Legal Distinction:

Appeals are not handled by SASSA itself. They are managed by the Independent Tribunal for Social Assistance Appeals (ITSAA), a body appointed by the Minister of Social Development to ensure an unbiased review of your financial standing.

How To Appeal SRD R370

To initiate an appeal for the R370 grant, you must lodge your dispute for each month that was declined. The process is entirely digital and must be completed within 30 to 90 days of receiving your rejection notice.

  1. Visit the official ITSAA portal at srd.dsd.gov.za.
  2. Enter your 13-digit South African ID Number and the Phone Number used during your initial application.
  3. Request an OTP (One-Time Pin) which will be sent via SMS. Enter this code to verify your session.
  4. Select the specific month you wish to appeal (e.g., "January 2026").
  5. Provide the reason for the appeal (e.g., "I am no longer receiving UIF" or "My bank account balance is below the R624 threshold").
  6. Submit the form and save your appeal reference number.

Appeal Status Check

Once you have lodged a dispute, you can perform an Appeal Status Check to track the progress of the Independent Tribunal’s review. This is separate from your standard Approved or Pending status on the SASSA portal.

By logging back into the Appeals Portal, you will see one of the following results:

  • 🔍 Appeal Received: Your case is in the queue for review.
  • ⚖️ Appeal Decision Pending: The Tribunal is currently verifying your data with SARS or the Department of Labour.
  • ✅ Appeal Successful: The decision has been overturned. SASSA will be instructed to pay you for that month.
  • ❌ Appeal Upheld (Declined): The Tribunal agreed with SASSA’s original rejection based on the evidence found.
ITSAA Appeal Submission Page Interface

Appeal for Declined Application

The most common reasons for a Declined Status involve data mismatches between government agencies. If you are appealing, ensure you address the specific reason provided by SASSA:

  • UIF Registered: If you lost your job and the UIF system hasn't updated your status, you may need to provide an UI-19 form or letter of termination during the verification process.
  • NSFAS Registered: If you are no longer a student but are still flagged, the Tribunal will re-verify your registration status with the Department of Higher Education.
  • Alternative Income Source: This is often triggered by small deposits. The Tribunal will look at your bank statements to determine if these were "once-off" gifts rather than sustainable income.

For more technical assistance, refer to our guide on Common Rejection Issues.

Appeal Processing Time

Understanding the Appeal Processing Time is vital for managing financial expectations. Unlike the monthly status check, appeals move at a slower regulatory pace.

Standard Window:

Typically, it takes 60 to 90 days for the Tribunal to reach a verdict. This is due to the volume of applications and the manual verification required with external databases.

Backpay Policy:

If your appeal is successful, you are entitled to full backpay for the months that were originally declined. These funds are usually paid in the next payment batch.

SASSA Payment Information

Receiving your Social Relief of Distress (SRD) funds efficiently requires an understanding of how SASSA schedules its disbursement cycles. Following the 2024 increase, the SRD R370 grant is processed through a sophisticated monthly batch system designed to prevent system crashes and ensure financial oversight.

Financial Tip: For the fastest access to your funds, SASSA officially recommends using a personal bank account rather than retail collection points. This allows for immediate access as soon as the payment batch is processed.

SRD R370 Payment Dates (Monthly Updates)

SASSA does not have a fixed "one-day-fits-all" payment date for the SRD grant. Instead, payments are distributed over the final week of each month. The specific day your funds become available depends on when your application reached the "Approved" status and the specific bank you use.

Typically, the processing window opens around the 23rd of the month and concludes by the 30th or 31st. To see the exact calendar for the current and upcoming months, visit our dedicated SRD Payment Dates Calendar.

Payment Methods

Beneficiaries are provided with multiple channels to receive their R370. Selecting the right method is vital for security and convenience.

🏦 Bank Deposit

This is the gold standard for grant collection. Funds are transferred directly from SASSA to your verified commercial bank account (Standard Bank, FNB, Capitec, Nedbank, TymeBank, etc.).

Requirement: The account must be in your name. Link your account via the Banking Details portal.

💳 Postbank Collection

Beneficiaries with a SASSA Gold Card or a Postbank account can withdraw funds at participating Post Office branches or specific Postbank-linked ATMs.

Note: Many physical Post Office branches have closed; check local availability before traveling.

🛒 Retail Store Collection

If you do not have a bank account, you can collect your R370 at major retailers by presenting your original ID and the phone used for registration.

  • Pick n Pay
  • Boxer Superstores
  • Shoprite / Checkers / Usave
  • OK Foods

Payment Delays & Reasons

Even if your status shows Approved, you may experience a delay in funds reflecting. Understanding the root cause can prevent unnecessary trips to the bank.

  • The "Approved but No Date" Issue: Your application passed the means test, but you have not been scheduled in the current month's payment batch. This usually resolves itself within 7 to 10 days.
  • Biometric Verification Requirements: In 2025, SASSA introduced mandatory facial recognition for "high-risk" profiles. If you haven't completed this, your payment will be frozen. Read more on how to complete your identity verification.
  • Verification Mismatch: If you recently changed your bank account, there is often a 10-day delay while SASSA's system communicates with your bank to verify account ownership.
  • Public Holidays and Weekends: SASSA does not process payments on weekends or public holidays. If your pay date falls on a Sunday, expect the funds to reflect by Tuesday.

Update SASSA Details

To ensure your R370 grant is processed without interruption, your record at SASSA must always be accurate. Incorrect information is the leading cause of declined applications. Below are the simple steps to update your profile.

Update Banking Details

If you have opened a new bank account or want to switch from retail collection to a direct deposit, you must update your details on the official portal.

  • Visit the Banking Details Update page.
  • Submit your ID number.
  • You will receive an SMS with a unique secure link.
  • Click the link and enter your new Bank Name, Branch Code, and Account Number.

Expert Tip: The bank account must be in your name. SASSA will not pay into an account belonging to a friend or relative.

Change Phone Number

If you have lost your SIM card or no longer have access to the number you used to apply, you must update it to receive your OTPs and payment notifications.

  1. Go to the Change Phone Number section.
  2. You will be required to provide your ID number and Application ID.
  3. SASSA may require you to pass a biometric verification (facial recognition) to prove you are the rightful owner of the application before the change is approved.

Update Personal Information

If your surname has changed (e.g., due to marriage) or there was a typo in your name during registration, you must correct this to match the Department of Home Affairs records.

Login to the SRD portal and select "Update Personal Details." Any changes made here will trigger a new Identity Verification check to ensure the new details are valid.

Reconfirm Existing Application

Under current regulations, SASSA requires beneficiaries to periodically reconfirm that they still need the grant and that their financial situation hasn't changed.

This is often done via the Reapplication Portal. If you see a status saying "Reapplication Required," simply log in, verify your existing details are still correct, and click "Submit." This keeps your application active in the monthly payment batches.

Identity & Verification Issues

For your R370 grant to be approved, SASSA must confirm that you are who you say you are. This involves a digital "handshake" between SASSA and the Department of Home Affairs (DHA). If any piece of data—like your surname or ID number—doesn't match perfectly, your payment will be blocked.

Identity Verification Failed

This status means the automated system could not find a match for your details in the national population register. This usually happens because of:

  • Typing errors in your first name or surname during application.
  • Using a nickname or initials instead of your full names as they appear on your ID.
  • Inputting an incorrect ID number.

Action: You must check our guide on fixing identity errors to correct your details.

Biometric Verification

As of 2025/2026, SASSA has introduced mandatory Facial Recognition for applications flagged as "high-risk" or those attempting to change their phone number.

If you are selected for this, you will receive an SMS with a secure link. You must click this link and follow the camera prompts to capture a "selfie" that matches your DHA photo. For a deep dive into this process, read our guide to new biometrics.

multi step SASSA biometric verification

DHA Verification Issues

Sometimes the error isn't yours; it's a synchronization delay between government databases. This is common for:

  • Newly issued IDs: It can take up to 4 weeks for a new ID to reflect in all systems.
  • Permanent Residents: Verification for non-citizens often requires extra manual steps.
  • Marital Status Changes: If you recently changed your surname at DHA, SASSA may still be looking for your old name.

How To Fix Verification Errors

Follow these simple steps to resolve most identity blocks:

  1. Review your application: Log into the SRD portal and ensure your Name, Surname, and ID exactly match your green barcoded ID or smart card.
  2. Update your phone number: If you aren't receiving the biometric link, ensure you have the correct phone number linked.
  3. Contact DHA: If your ID is "blocked" or "invalid," you may need to visit a Home Affairs branch to ensure your status is active.
  4. Lodge a Technical Query: If everything is correct but you are still failing, use the SASSA contact page to speak with an agent.

Common Problems & Fixes

Navigating the SASSA digital ecosystem can sometimes be challenging due to high traffic and technical synchronizations. As we progress through the 2025/2026 grant cycle, several common technical hurdles have been identified. Below is an expert-vetted guide to troubleshooting these issues efficiently.

OTP Not Received

The One-Time Pin (OTP) is essential for sensitive actions like updating banking details or lodging appeals. If you are not receiving it:

  • Check Signal Quality: Ensure you have a stable mobile network connection. Sometimes simply restarting your phone can force a network refresh.
  • Phone Number Mismatch: The system only sends OTPs to the specific mobile number registered on your SASSA profile. If you have a new number, you must follow the phone number change process.
  • 24-Hour Lockout: If you request an OTP too many times in a single day, the system may flag the activity as suspicious and block your number for 24 hours. Wait for a full day before trying again.

Website Not Loading

During peak payment dates, the official SRD portal often experiences heavy traffic, leading to "502 Bad Gateway" or "Gateway Timeout" errors.

How to fix it:

  • Clear Browser Cache: Sometimes your browser stores an "error page." Clearing your cache or using "Incognito/Private" mode can solve this.
  • Off-Peak Access: Try accessing the site between 9:00 PM and 6:00 AM when traffic is at its lowest.
  • Use Alternatives: If the website is down, perform your SASSA status check via the USSD code (*134*565#) or the Moya App.

Status Not Updating

A frequent complaint is that the status remains Pending for weeks or even months. This is usually due to database lag between SASSA and the Department of Home Affairs or SARS.

  • Synchronization: SASSA re-verifies your eligibility every month. If their system is waiting for data from your bank or the UIF, your status will remain pending.
  • Check Reapplication: Sometimes a status stops updating because your previous application cycle has expired. Visit the reapplication portal to ensure your file is active.
  • Helpline Intervention: If your status is stuck for more than 4 weeks, contact the call center to request a manual system refresh.

Payment Not Received

If your status is Approved with a payday, but the money is not in your account, there are three primary reasons:

  1. Bank Verification Match: SASSA may have found a slight mismatch between your registered names and the name on your bank account. Ensure your banking details are correct.
  2. Batch Processing Delays: Payments are released in batches. It can take 2-3 business days for the funds to clear once the bank receives the instruction from SASSA.
  3. Unlinked Profile: If you recently underwent identity verification or biometrics, your payment may be held until the next automated system update.

Pro Tip: If you choose "Cash Send" but have not received an SMS, check if your phone number is correctly linked to your ID on the portal.

SASSA SRD R370 Status Check FAQ

1. Why does my status say 'Pending' for the current month?

'Pending' means SASSA is currently cross-referencing your ID number with various databases, including SARS, UIF, and NSFAS. This process happens monthly. If you are still pending after the 15th, it usually indicates a high volume of applications. There is no need to re-apply; your application remains active for every month until the end of the grant cycle.

2. I received an SMS for "Facial Recognition." Is this official?

Yes. SASSA now uses Biometric Identity Verification to prevent fraud. If you change your phone number, change your banking details, or if your profile is flagged for high risk, you must follow the secure link sent via SMS to complete a facial scan. This link will always point to an official .gov.za domain. Failure to complete this scan will pause your payments.

3. Why was I declined for 'Income Source Identified'?

This decline occurs if SASSA’s monthly "means test" detects inflows into your bank account totaling more than R624. This includes any deposits, e-wallet transfers from family, or interest. If you believe this is an error (e.g., a once-off gift), you must lodge an appeal for that specific month within 30 days of the decline.

4. What does the status 'Referred' mean?

A 'Referred' status indicates that your ID or cellphone number has been flagged by the South African Fraud Prevention Service (SAFPS). This isn't a permanent decline, but it does require you to clear your identity. Usually, this is resolved by completing the biometric facial recognition link sent to your phone.

5. My status is 'Approved' but there is no Payday date.

'Approved' confirms your eligibility, while the 'Payday' date is only generated once funds are allocated for release. In 2026, it is common to see a payday date appear 5 to 10 working days after the approval status updates. If it has been more than 14 days, check that your bank details are still correctly verified.

6. Why does SASSA say I am 'UIF Registered' when I am unemployed?

SASSA pulls data from the Department of Employment and Labour. If your previous employer did not update your status to "terminated" on their system, you will still appear as an active worker. You must contact the UIF to ensure your status is updated and then appeal your SASSA decline with proof of unemployment.

7. Can I use a relative's bank account for my payment?

No. To prevent "ghost" payments and fraud, SASSA only pays into a bank account that is registered in the exact name and ID number of the applicant. If you provide bank details belonging to someone else, the 'Bank Verification' process will fail, and your payment will be suspended.

8. Is the SRD grant R350 or R370 for 2026?

As of April 2024, the SRD grant was officially increased to R370 per month. This is the current amount for the 2025/2026 financial year. Disregard any social media rumors about increases to R700 or R900 unless officially announced by the Department of Social Development.

9. What should I do if my SASSA Gold Card has expired?

SASSA and Postbank are transitioning away from the physical Gold Card system. For 2026, it is highly recommended that you change your payment method to "Bank Account" on the SRD website. You can use any personal bank account at a major commercial bank to receive your funds digitally and avoid card-related issues.

10. How long does the appeal process take?

Appeals are handled by the Independent Tribunal for Social Assistance Appeals (ITSAA), not SASSA directly. The legal timeframe for processing an appeal is between 60 and 90 days. You can track your appeal status at srd.dsd.gov.za.

11. How do I change my registered phone number?

You can update your number on the SRD website. If you no longer have the old SIM to receive an OTP, you will be required to undergo a Biometric Facial Recognition check to prove your identity. This prevents unauthorized persons from hijacking your grant.

12. How do I fix an "Identity Verification Failed" error?

This usually means your Name or Surname on the SASSA system does not match the records at the Department of Home Affairs (DHA). Ensure you have not used nicknames or shortened versions of your name. You can use the "Update Name" feature on the portal to correct this.

13. Will I get paid for previous months if my application was delayed?

Yes. If your application for a specific month (e.g., January) is eventually approved after a delay, you will receive that payment retroactively. SASSA often pays backpay as separate transactions within the same week or as a lump sum.

14. Why was I declined for being a NSFAS recipient?

The law states you cannot receive two government grants simultaneously. If you are registered for NSFAS bursary funding, you are ineligible for the SRD grant. If you are no longer a student, you must provide proof of de-registration from your institution to the Independent Tribunal during your appeal.

15. Why has my status been 'Bank Details Pending' for a long time?

This means SASSA is waiting for the National Treasury to verify your bank account. This typically happens if the account is new or if there was a typo in the account number. If it stays 'Pending' for over 14 days, log in and re-submit your bank details to ensure the verification request is active.

16. Can I check my status without using mobile data?

Yes. The Moya App offers a data-free platform for SASSA status checks. You can also dial *120*3227# from your phone, although standard USSD rates apply. Avoid using unverified third-party apps that ask for your ID number.

17. Do I need to re-apply every month?

No. Once your application is successfully submitted, it remains in the system. SASSA automatically re-evaluates your eligibility every month against various databases. You only need to update your application if your circumstances (banking or phone number) change.

18. Why is Bank Account better than CashSend?

While CashSend (via Retailers) is available, it is often subject to technical delays and SMS lag. Payments to a personal bank account are generally processed faster, are more secure, and don't require you to wait for a collection SMS.

19. How do I cancel my grant if I find a job?

You can cancel your application on the srd.sassa.gov.za website under the "Cancel My Application" tab. It is important to do this to avoid future audits or potential debt recovery if you are found to be receiving the grant while earning an income.

20. Can I receive SRD if I get a Child Support Grant?

Yes. Receiving a Child Support Grant (CSG) on behalf of a child does not disqualify the caregiver from receiving the SRD R370 grant for themselves, provided they meet the R624 monthly income threshold.
