What To Do About Your ‘Pending’ SRD Grant Status

If you applied for the R350 SRD grant and your application status is now ‘Pending,’ this means that your application has not yet been approved, according to SASSA. It means that SASSA is still scanning your information so that it can be verified first.

What should you do?

If they haven’t been accepted yet, SASSA has recommended applicants to continue monitoring their SRD status for developments.

Following the verification of your application by SASSA, the Department of Home Affairs will validate the data you submitted, including your ID number, Name, and Surname.

After that, your ID number is checked against a number of databases, including those maintained by South African Revenue Services (SARS), the Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF), and the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS). This is to see if you have any other income streams or grants, and if you do, you won’t be accepted.

Your ID number and cellphone number are then subjected to a fraud risk scoring procedure after that.

If your application is accepted, you will be paid via bank transfer, cash send, or post office.

It is crucial for applicants to be aware that the Special Covid-19 R350 SRD grant will not be paid on a specific day.
