- The transaction reference number for your records
Checking your payment status regularly ensures that you receive every monthly installment on time and can take action quickly if there is any problem.

Understanding Your Payment Status
Here is what each payment status means:
| Status Shown | What It Means | Action Required |
|---|---|---|
| Success / Credited | ₹3,000 has been sent to your bank account | Check your bank passbook or app to confirm |
| Pending / Processing | Payment is under process and will be credited soon | Wait 2–3 working days and check again |
| Failed / Rejected | Payment could not be sent due to a bank or Aadhaar issue | Visit BDO/SDO office to resolve the issue |
| Not Verified | Your verification is incomplete | Complete verification immediately |
| On Hold | Your account is under review by the government | Contact your local BDO office for details |
Payment Status Shows "Failed" — What to Do?
If your payment status shows "Failed" or "Rejected", the most common reasons are:
- Your Aadhaar is not linked to your bank account
- Your bank account has been closed or frozen
- There is a name mismatch between Aadhaar and bank records
- Your bank account number was entered incorrectly during registration
- Your bank's DBT facility is not activated
To fix a failed payment, follow these steps:
- Visit your nearest bank branch and confirm that your Aadhaar is properly linked
- Ask the bank to activate DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) on your account
- If your account details are wrong, visit the BDO office (rural) or SDO office (urban) to update them
- Once the issue is fixed, your next month's payment will automatically be processed
