The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) has announced the start of the 13,500 PKR payment document verification process for both existing and new beneficiaries. This update has been shared by BISP Chairperson Rubina Khalid, who emphasized the importance of completing the document verification process as soon as possible. Women who are currently ineligible or those already benefiting from the program are urged to ensure their information is up to date to continue or initiate receiving financial assistance.
With the government set to increase the monthly BISP payment to 13,500 PKR from January 2025, completing the verification process is crucial. The government of Pakistan is also expanding the program to include 10 million beneficiaries, providing an excellent opportunity for new applicants.
Below is a detailed guide on eligibility criteria, document verification, and the steps required to secure your payment.
Eligibility Criteria for BISP 13,500 Payment
To qualify for the increased payment, beneficiaries must meet the following criteria:
