Why haven’t I received back pay for approved past months?:-
Retroactive approvals require extra data checks against external databases like SARS, UIF, and banks before funds can be released. Because the Social Security Agency prioritizes current-month disbursements during automated payout runs, historical backlog payments are released in subsequent monthly batches once all verification checks clear.
Why did my Cash Send payment fail or not arrive?
Cash Send failures typically occur when your phone number is not RICA-registered under your exact name and ID number, which triggers system security blocks that prevent bank SMS vouchers from dispatching. Issues also stem from expired retail vouchers, network delays during peak payout periods, or incorrect profile settings—such as leaving your payment method set to “Bank Account” instead of “Cash Send.”
Why did I get paid for one month, but skipped for the previous/following month?
The Social security agency evaluates your application independently every 30 days against the strict R624/month income threshold. If you receive a temporary bank transfer from family or friends, or if system databases (like UIF or PERSAL) briefly flag activity during a specific month, that single cycle will trigger an “Alternative Income Source” decline while surrounding months remain approved.
Types of Bank Accounts That Can Receive the Payments
Beneficiaries can generally use eligible personal bank accounts to receive payments, provided the account meets the applicable requirements, belongs to the beneficiary where required and remains active. The account must also be capable of receiving electronic funds transfers (EFTs).
Common account types include:
- Personal Transaction Accounts – Standard everyday accounts that can receive electronic deposits and allow beneficiaries to access their funds through normal banking services.
- Savings Accounts – Eligible savings accounts may also be used where they support incoming electronic payments.
- Digital and Online Bank Accounts – Personal accounts provided by digital or online banking services may be suitable if they meet the applicable requirements for receiving EFT payments.
