Common Reasons for Payment Delays
Administrative Postponements: Given the number of applications SASSA has to deal with, there are times when there is a delay in processing caused by the volume of work or by administrative backlogs.
Verification Process: It is possible that your application is being subjected to further verification procedures to ascertain that the information provided is correct, and all the requirements to be admitted to the service are fulfilled.
Wrong Bank Details: The bane of this process is wrong bank details. Make sure to verify your information against SASSA records to avoid discrepancies.
Other Pending Documents: In addition, missing or improperly submitted documentation can also cause a delay in the process. Submit all necessary documents and if need be the process can be recommenced.
Technical Problems: Occasionally there may be technical problems which may slow down the payment processes. Such problems are often sorted out in a short period by SASSA.
Not Satisfying the Requirements/Conditions: Be sure that all the conditions for eligibility are satisfied including the relevant income limits or restrictions and relevant documents.
Previously Granted Resources: Funds may have been allocated to you already, but they are not visible in your account yet. Look through your bank statements for confirmation.
