## What is HSS Online Status Check?

HSS Online Status Check lets South Africans check their housing subsidy (HSS) application status online in seconds — using only the 13-digit South African ID number on the application.

Disclaimer: HSS Online Status Check is not associated with, endorsed by, or authorised by the Human Settlements / Housing Subsidy System (HSS) of South Africa or any government department. It is a separate, independent app that retrieves your housing subsidy status from the official government API.

Waiting to hear about your housing subsidy application? Instead of queuing or calling an office, run a quick HSS online status check from your phone. Enter the ID number used on the application and see the current housing subsidy status straight from the official Human Settlements system.
