What Went Wrong in November 2025? Key Reasons Behind Delayed SRD Payments

SASSA will pay the SRD R370 grants from November 25 to November 30 2025. People who got approved after asking for a review can get their money on November 8 2025. These dates only work for people who got their applications approved and have a set payment date. It’s better to wait a few days after your payment date to get your money. This way you won’t have to wait in long lines and it will be easier to access your funds. Remember that it usually takes 2-3 days for the money to show up in your bank account.

Didn’t Receive Your R370 in November? Here’s What You Should Do Next

What to do when your payment is approved but not received:

– First check if your bank information is correct on the SASSA website. Wrong bank details will stop your payment from coming through.

– Sometimes payments take longer because SASSA needs to check your information with other government offices.

– This is normal. If you still don’t get paid you can get help by calling 0800 60 10 11 or sending an email to [email protected].

If SASSA rejected your application you have 30 days to challenge this decision. You can do this through the SRD appeals website. This often happens when SASSA finds you have income from somewhere.
