Good news for BISP beneficiaries! The latest update from the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) reveals that the Rs. 13,500 installment is being distributed ahead of 25 May 2025. If you’re eligible, you should have already received a confirmation SMS from 8171. But that’s not all — the program now allows two eligible women in a single household to receive Rs. 18,500 under the revised Kafalat scheme.
In this article, we’ll explain everything — how to check your status, how two women can qualify for Rs. 18,500, and what you need to do before the May deadline.
🎉 What’s Included in the Rs. 13,500 Qist?
The Rs. 13,500 installment is part of BISP’s quarterly Kafalat payment. It now includes not just the standard support but additional relief for some beneficiaries.
Breakdown of the Rs. 13,500 Qist:
| Component | Amount (PKR) |
|---|---|
| Standard Kafalat Payment | Rs. 10,500 |
| Ramadan/Pending Relief | Rs. 3,000 (if applicable) |
| Total | Rs. 13,500 |
✅ Note: Not everyone will receive the Rs. 3,000 addition. It depends on your previous balance and eligibility for seasonal relief.
👩👩👧 Rs. 18,500 Kafalat: Dual Eligibility for Women
A major highlight of the 8171 BISP Latest Update is that two women from one household can now each receive Rs. 9,250, totaling Rs. 18,500. This change is a result of updated household data from the NSER Dynamic Survey.
Eligibility Conditions:
-
Both women must be separately registered in the BISP database.
-
Each must meet the eligibility criteria individually.
-
Payments are subject to biometric verification via CNIC.
-
This is not a bonus — it’s a result of expanded eligibility.
🔍 Tip: If your household has more than one adult woman who meets the criteria (e.g., widows, disabled, unemployed), you should get them registered for this benefit.
