BISP June 2025 Relief: Reissued Rs. 13,500 Payments for Previously Returned Cases

Introduction

The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has announced a significant update for June 2025, bringing relief to numerous beneficiaries who previously faced issues with their payments. The government has decided to reissue the Rs. 13,500 payments that were returned due to various technical and verification problems. This move aims to ensure that eligible individuals receive the financial support they deserve, reinforcing the government’s commitment to social welfare.

Understanding the BISP Rs. 13,500 Payment

The BISP Rs. 13,500 payment is a quarterly installment provided to eligible low-income families to assist with their basic needs. This financial aid is crucial for many households, helping them manage expenses related to food, healthcare, and education. To qualify for this payment, beneficiaries must meet specific criteria:

Monthly Income: Should be less than Rs. 25,000.
NSER Score: Must have a valid National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) score of 32 or below.
No Other Government Assistance: Should not be receiving financial help from other government welfare programs.
Priority Groups: Special attention is given to vulnerable groups, including single mothers, widows, and persons with disabilities.

These criteria ensure that the assistance reaches those who need it the most, maintaining the integrity and effectiveness of the program.

Reasons for Previous Payment Returns

Several beneficiaries faced issues that led to the return of their Rs. 13,500 payments. Understanding these reasons is essential to prevent future occurrences:

Biometric Verification Failure: Mismatches in fingerprint scans at biometric machines caused verification failures.
Account Issues: Expired, blocked, or frozen bank accounts hindered the successful transfer of funds.
Incomplete Verification: Delays or issues in completing the necessary verification processes led to payment returns.
Technical Glitches: Server issues and other technical problems during the withdrawal process resulted in unsuccessful transactions.

These challenges not only delayed financial support for the beneficiaries but also added to their hardships. Recognizing and addressing these issues is a step forward in improving the system’s efficiency.

Reissuance of Returned Payments

In response to the challenges faced by beneficiaries, the government has taken a proactive approach by deciding to reissue the returned Rs. 13,500 payments. This decision reflects the administration’s dedication to ensuring that eligible individuals receive their rightful support without unnecessary delays.

The reissuance process is scheduled to commence in June 2025, covering the payments initially intended for the January to March 2025 period. Beneficiaries who faced issues due to biometric verification failures, account problems, or technical glitches will be included in this reissuance phase. Importantly, those affected do not need to reapply or undergo additional verification processes, as their information is already present in the BISP system.

Checking Your Payment Status

Beneficiaries can verify their payment status through several convenient methods:

SMS Method:
- Type your 13-digit CNIC number.
- Send it to 8171.
- You will receive an SMS reply with your eligibility status.
Online Portal Check:
- Visit the official BISP 8171 web portal.
- Enter your CNIC number.
- Complete the captcha verification.
- Click on “Check Status” to view your payment details.
Visit BISP Office:
- Go to your nearest BISP Tehsil Center.
- Present your original CNIC.
- The staff will assist you in checking your payment status.

These methods are designed to provide beneficiaries with easy access to their payment information, ensuring transparency and convenience.

How to Receive Your BISP Rs. 13,500 Payment

Once verified as eligible, beneficiaries can receive their reissued BISP Rs. 13,500 payment through multiple channels depending on their location and biometric verification status. Here’s how:

BISP Campsites (All Provinces): For women who are verified via biometric authentication, campsites will disburse payments directly.
HBL ATMs (Punjab, Sindh, Balochistan): Eligible women in these regions can withdraw their payments from designated HBL ATMs using biometric authentication.
Bank Alfalah Agents (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Gilgit Baltistan, AJK): Bank Alfalah representatives will provide cash after verifying beneficiaries’ fingerprints and CNICs.

Each method requires biometric verification, so make sure your CNIC is valid, and your fingerprints match the NADRA records. If you’re unable to verify due to fingerprints not matching, visit the BISP Tehsil Office for manual verification support.

Do You Need to Apply Again for the Reissued Payment?

No, if your payment was previously returned due to verification issues, you do not need to apply again. This is one of the most reassuring aspects of the update. Your record is still active in the BISP system. As long as your CNIC was part of the returned batch, it will automatically be processed during the April–June 2025 cycle.

Still, it’s a good idea to check your eligibility using one of the three verification methods (SMS, online portal, or visiting BISP offices). This way, you’ll have peace of mind and clarity about your payment status.

Who Is Eligible for the Reissued Payment in June 2025?

Let’s break down exactly who will receive the reissued Rs. 13,500 BISP payment:

Women with biometric verification issues.
Those whose bank accounts were blocked or expired.
Women with mismatched CNIC-SIM registration issues.
Approved beneficiaries who didn’t get their payment in Jan–Feb 2025.
Individuals who visited BISP offices but faced technical disbursement issues.

The eligibility list has already been updated within the BISP database, meaning your inclusion is automatic if you meet any of the above conditions.

Why Is This Update So Important?

This update isn’t just another announcement—it’s a lifeline for thousands of women across Pakistan who rely on BISP support. For many households, Rs. 13,500 can make the difference between having food on the table or not. With rising inflation and increasing unemployment, this payment can cover essentials like:

School fees and uniforms for children.
Medical treatment for elderly family members.
Monthly grocery and utility bills.

This move also boosts trust in the government’s commitment to helping low-income households. It acknowledges that previous issues weren’t the fault of the beneficiaries and seeks to correct them fairly and efficiently.

Avoiding Scams and Fraudulent Calls

As the payments are reissued, scammers may try to take advantage. Please keep the following precautions in mind:

Do not share your CNIC or personal data with strangers or anyone claiming to be a BISP representative on a phone call.
Never pay bribes or give money to “agents” who promise faster payment processing.
Only verify your payment status through official BISP channels like:
- SMS 8171
- Official 8171 BISP web portal
- Authorized BISP Tehsil Centers

If someone tries to scam you, report it immediately through the BISP Complaint Helpline.
