After processing, the waiting period is usually between a few days and a couple of weeks.

It’s only natural that you are eager to see the money in your account after SASSA processes your SRD grant. There is however a waiting period for beneficiaries to consider. This is usually around 2 to 3 working days. It’s a short but important timeframe which allows the transfer of funds to clear and be available.

Why Wait for?

• Banking Operation Banks perform their internal banking operations including fraud checks, interbank clearings, and other procedures. This period is used to ensure that all the checks and balances have been performed correctly to protect your money.
• Batch processing Financial institutions process transactions often in batches. It can be a long wait for your payment to be processed in a queue with other payments.
• Clearance cycles: The banks operate according to clearance cycles which determine the time when money is transferred from one account into another. These cycles align with standard processing time. The SRD grants are paid within them.
• Weekends and Public Holidays The waiting time may be increased if public holidays occur during the 2-day window. This is important to remember when you expect your payment.
• Different banks, different speeds: The speed of processing transactions can vary depending on the bank that you are using. Some banks will reflect payments faster than others.

Preparing for Payment Period

• Verify your eligibility: Check that the payment for March 2024 has been approved.

• Documentation: Please keep your identification and any other documentation handy in case you are required to prove your identity at any time during the period.
• Budgeting Plan your budget around payment windows and the 2-3 day wait period before funds are reflected.
