BISP 13500 Payment Update for April 2025
The government has increased the BISP payment to Rs. 13,500 to help poor families during rising inflation and the Eid season. The amount was earlier Rs. 10,500 but was revised in 2025. The payment is being distributed in two phases, Phase 1 from April 10–15 and Phase 2 from April 16–30. Each district is assigned a specific date and beneficiaries will get an SMS from 8171 once the payment is ready. Make sure your CNIC is updated and registered with BISP.
Who is Eligible for BISP 2025 Payment?
To receive the Rs. 13,500 payment, you must meet certain requirements:
- Monthly family income should be less than Rs. 25,000
- Your poverty score on the NSER should be 32 or lower
- You should not be receiving any other government support
- A valid CNIC is required
- Priority is given to widows, single mothers, and disabled persons
If your household owns cars, land, or you are a taxpayer or government employee, you are not eligible.
How to Verify at Tehsil BISP Offices
If your SMS shows “Verification Required” or “Ineligible,” you must visit the nearest Tehsil-level BISP office. Carry your original CNIC, and any message you received from 8171. At the office, BISP staff will guide you through biometric verification and update your NSER data if needed.
Most people who are rejected due to outdated records are later accepted after verification. So visiting the office can help resolve many issues and make you eligible again.
