How long does SASSA Status Pending take and Solution?

Since SASSA issues grants monthly, you can wait for the next payment date.

Now to the SOLUTION

If you can’t, it is better to go to the nearest SASSA office and contact a representative.

You can also call them or contact them via WhatsApp but visiting in person is better as call agents don’t have much control over your application. However, there is no fixed date for the Special Covid-19 R350 SRD grant to be paid.

How many days does SASSA pending take?

The duration of a SASSA (South African Social Security Agency) pending status can vary and there is no fixed time frame. The processing time for a SASSA application depends on various factors such as the complexity of the case, the completeness of the application, and the volume of applications being processed at the time.
In general, it can take a few weeks to several months for a SASSA application to be processed and for a decision to be made on the application.

According to a recent update, it is to be noted that the application can also go pending if there is a lack of funds. In such a case, there is nothing much to do from your side apart from waiting. You can keep checking your Sassa status to keep yourself updated on the situation.
