PM Announces Increase in BISP Budget: 13,500 Latest Payment Starting from 2025

The Prime Minister of Pakistan has approved an increase in the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) budget, bringing a new payment amount of 13,500 for all registered families. This increase was shared by Senator Rubina Khalid during her media briefing. She expressed her gratitude to the Prime Minister for this new budget, which will help support more eligible families through the National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) Survey. Registered families are urged to check their CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) online to stay updated on their payments.

Announcement of 13,500 New Payment for BISP Beneficiaries

During a recent visit to Skardu, BISP Chairperson Rubina Khalid shared exciting news with all BISP beneficiaries. She announced that the new payment of 13,500 will be given to families registered under the 8171 Kafalat Program starting from January 2025. The payment will be delivered efficiently through the latest banking system. With the increase in the budget, the BISP is now able to accommodate more people, providing better financial support to families in need.

This is a great opportunity for those who previously applied but were deemed ineligible. They can now reapply through the updated NSER Survey and get a chance to benefit from this new payment scheme.

Registration for 13,500 Kafalat Payment Through Tehsil Offices

Families who want to benefit from the new 13,500 payments need to visit their local BISP Tehsil office. The registration process is straightforward and ensures that only eligible families receive the financial support. Follow these steps to apply:

• Visit the BISP Tehsil office in your district in 2024.
• Go to the registration desk and submit your CNIC card along with your children’s B-Form.
• Receive a token for the updated or new survey.
• Provide personal and financial information to the data input operator.
• Complete your thumb verification at the office.
• Receive a confirmation message from 8171 regarding your registration.

After further verification, eligible families will be notified of their status and will receive payments accordingly.

One Crore Families to Be Registered by the End of the Year

The BISP program is rapidly expanding, with the goal of registering one crore (10 million) beneficiaries by the end of the year. According to Rubina Khalid, the registration process is ongoing, and families who are already enrolled are required to recertify their information to continue receiving payments. The government is committed to supporting more families through this program, ensuring that the most vulnerable citizens receive financial aid.

The program is working efficiently to ensure that all registered families are continuously supported, especially with the new payment scheme set to launch in January 2025.
