  1. I applied for sĆ ssa 350 it showed im active but when i want to check my status it keeps saying number not found

    • If your SASSA 350 application shows as active but the status check says “number not found,” it might be due to a system glitch or incorrect details entered. Ensure you use the correct ID and phone number linked to your application. If the issue persists, try checking the status later, as SASSA’s systems can sometimes be overloaded. Alternatively, contact SASSA customer service directly for assistance or visit a nearby SASSA office to resolve the issue.
