• SMS Service: Send your 13-digit CNIC number via SMS to 8171. You will receive an automated reply regarding your eligibility.

The BISP Kafalat program is a core initiative of the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP). It provides unconditional cash transfers to eligible impoverished families, primarily focusing on women, to improve their socio-economic well-being. The program aims to alleviate poverty and empower women by providing them with financial assistance.

BISP payment release dates are announced by the Benazir Income Support Program periodically. To get the most accurate and up-to-date information on the next payment release, we recommend:

• Checking the official BISP website: Official announcements are always made on the BISP website.
• Following BISP social media channels: BISP often shares updates on their official social media pages.
• Contacting BISP Helpline: You can call the BISP toll-free helpline for direct information.
• Local BISP Tehsil Office: Visit your nearest office for announcements and details.

If you have not received your BISP payment, please follow these steps:

1. Re-verify your eligibility:
   • Use the 8171 portal (online) or SMS service (send CNIC to 8171) to reconfirm your eligibility status. Sometimes, eligibility criteria or beneficiary lists are updated.
2. Visit your nearest BISP Tehsil office:
   • If you are confirmed eligible and still haven’t received your payment, visit your nearest BISP Tehsil office. They can investigate the issue, check payment disbursement records, and provide guidance on the next steps, including potential re-issuance or alternative payment methods.
   • Remember to bring your original CNIC and any relevant BISP documentation when you visit the office.
