  • If there are errors or mismatches, the verification process may fail, requiring corrections and resubmission.

Decoding NSFAS Banking Details Platform Status Abbreviations

After submitting your banking details, you will receive one of the following status updates:

1. SM (Submitted but Not Verified by the Bank)

  • What it Means:
    • Your banking details have been submitted but are still awaiting verification from the bank.

3. RJ (Failed Verification at the Bank)

  • What it Means:
    • Your bank rejected the verification request due to incorrect details.
    • Common reasons include:
      • Incorrect account number
      • Mismatched ID number
      • Third-party account submission
  • What You Should Do:
    • Double-check your banking details and correct any errors.
    • Ensure your account is registered in your name and matches your ID number.
    • Resubmit your details as soon as possible to avoid payment delays.

4. UP (Updated by Student After Successful Verification)

  • What it Means:
    • You updated your banking details after a successful verification.
    • This typically occurs when you:
      • Switch banks
      • Open a new account
      • Correct previous details
  • What You Should Do:
    • Wait for verification again to ensure the new details are correct.
    • Check for updates to confirm successful verification.
