SASSA R350 Grants Not Paid Yet:
Generally, you have not received your SASSA R350 grat payment yet because SASSA has generally not started payments yet.
SASSA is responsible for making grant payments, therefore if SASSA has not issued payment, no one will be able to receive grants.
To know if your SASSA Grant has been paid, you should do a SASSA grant payment status check to understand why you have not received your SASSA R350 grant payment.
Issues At The PayPoint:
Your SASSA R350 grant payment has not been issued possibly because there are some challenges with PayPoint.
SASSA might have verified and approved your grant and sent you the payment date, paid your grant but you still cannot collect your grant at PayPoint.
Util such challenges are resolved at the pay points, you will not be able to receive payment.
