2 Months to Go for Kafalat 13,500 Payment: BISP Update for 2025

Kafalat 13,500

The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) has recently announced an increase in its Kafalat Payment, providing financial relief to beneficiaries across Pakistan. Starting in January 2025, eligible women and households will see a monthly payment rise to Rs. 13,500. This increase is part of BISP’s commitment to support vulnerable groups, helping them manage living expenses and improve their quality of life. This article explains the details of the new payment amount, eligibility verification, registration requirements, and instructions on how to check your enrollment status.

New Benazir Kafalat Payment of Rs. 13,500 Begins in January

From January 2025, the BISP Kafalat monthly payment will increase by Rs. 3,000, raising it to Rs. 13,500 for each eligible recipient. This updated payment will be disbursed to the existing 9.3 million beneficiaries, with plans to add more households in the near future. The decision aligns with the government’s budgetary initiatives aimed at supporting lower-income families who are struggling with rising living costs. By increasing the payment, the BISP is reaffirming its commitment to social welfare, providing essential support to families in need.

BISP Expansion and Eligibility Survey Requirements

In addition to increasing payments, BISP is expanding its beneficiary list to reach more families in need. By the end of 2024, BISP aims to add new households to its Kafalat Program. Eligible families who have not completed a survey at their local BISP Tehsil office are encouraged to do so as soon as possible. Completing this survey is essential for confirming eligibility, ensuring that those who meet the criteria can receive the monthly Kafalat support. BISP Chairperson Rubina Khalid has highlighted the importance of these surveys, emphasizing that they are critical for reaching as many eligible families as possible.
