sassa verify bank details 2023-2024

The verification of some SRD SASSA applicants’ bank details may have taken longer than expected. Since SASSA has shed some light on the steps and length of this process,

One process used to validate SRD grant applications is bank verification. In response to applicants’ complaints that it seemed like the procedure was taking forever, SASSA took action.
A candidate expressed their displeasure with SASSA on social media, complaining that the bank verification process had already lasted a week, and challenging SASSA, “Do you not understand the sense of urgency? Why don’t you pay more attention to us? You placed the horse before the cart, right?”

SASSA responded by saying:

There is no predetermined time limit for the bank verification procedure.

As part of this procedure, the applicant’s information is forwarded to the Department of Treasury and the particular bank they have selected.

When the details are verified, it goes back to the Depository and is then turned over to SASSA so that the payment may be made.

When you check the status of your SASSA R350 award, would it be a good idea to see “Bank subtleties forthcoming,” which indicates that your application or reapplication has been received? Your bank details and preferred method of payment for your R350 award, however, have not been provided.

What should you then do?

All you need to do is enter your banking information on the SASSA SRD website. How to execute:

Check out srd.sassa.gov.za
Please enter your ID number.
The cell phone number you provided during the application will receive an SMS containing a secure link.
Click the link in the text message to follow the instructions that appear on the screen.

SASSA has repeatedly said that beneficiaries will be paid for the months for which they are eligible and that there is no predetermined deadline for the R350 grant payment.

There is no predetermined time limit for the bank verification procedure. Following verification at the applicant’s preferred bank, the department of Treasury forwards the applicant’s information back to Treasury, where it is subsequently sent to SASSA for payment reasons.
