Women Who Took Government Loans Are Not Eligible for BISP Payment

Women who have taken regular loans from the Punjab government, like Apna Ghar Apni Chhat or from Maryam Nawaz schemes, are now not allowed to receive BISP money. The government has decided that people who have received help in the form of loans from other programs are no longer needy. So, if a woman has taken any such loan, she will not get any BISP payment from now on. These loans show that the family may have some financial support already.

Women Without Dynamic Survey Are Not Eligible for BISP Payment

• Payment Will Stop: If a woman does not complete her dynamic survey, her BISP payment will stop.
• Purpose of the Survey; The dynamic survey helps the government check if the woman is still poor and eligible for support.
• Two-Year Removal: Women who do not take the survey will be removed from the BISP program for two years.
• Chance to Rejoin: After two years, they can take the survey again and may become eligible once more.
• Regular Updates Required: Every family in the BISP program must update their information regularly through the dynamic survey.

Women with PMT Score Above 32 Not Eligible for BISP Program

Women whose PMT score (Poverty Means Test score) is above 32 will be removed from the BISP program. This score tells if a family is poor or not. If the score is high, it means the family is not poor anymore. Even if a woman has completed the survey but her PMT score goes up, she will still be disqualified. These changes show that the government only wants to help those who are really poor and in need.

Women With Husbands or Themselves as Tax Filers Will Not Get BISP Payment

• Marked as “Failed”: If the husband or the woman herself becomes a tax filer, they will be marked as “failed” in the BISP system.
• Seen as Not Poor: Tax filers are considered to have enough income and are no longer seen as poor.
• Removed from BISP List: When marked as failed, the whole family will be removed from the BISP program.
• BISP Is for the Poor: BISP is only for people who are very poor and do not pay income tax.
• Government’s View: The government believes that those who pay tax have a better financial condition.

Women Whose Families Traveled Abroad Are Not Eligible for BISP Aid

Women or families who have gone to another country, even for visiting or working, will not be allowed to receive BISP money. If the husband or wife has traveled abroad, it means they might have more income or support from outside. Because of this, they will be considered ineligible. This rule applies even if they were getting payments before. Travel abroad shows that the family may no longer be among the poorest.

Women Involved in Easy Load Business Not Eligible for BISP Help

Some women use their mobile numbers for easy load businesses. If they do a monthly easy load of Rs. 2000 or more, they will also be removed from the BISP list. The system checks how much mobile load is being used. A higher amount shows that the person may be running a small business or has more money. This is why such women are now marked as not deserving and are being removed from the BISP support system.
