Important Guidelines for Receiving BISP 8171 Installment
There are a few important things to remember when you go to collect your BISP 8171 installment. First, never give money to any agent or third person. The BISP service is completely free. Also, only go to the center after receiving the message from 8171. Make sure your CNIC address matches the district included in the current phase. Disabled persons, elderly citizens, and transgender people are given priority at the campsites, so their process will be even smoother. Always be alert and do not share personal details with anyone who is not an official staff member.
BISP 8171 Payment Support for Children’s Education
In some cases, people may receive more than Rs. 13,500 if they are also registered for children’s school support (Taleemi Wazaif). If your children are going to school and you have registered them under the BISP education program, then you might receive extra money as a stipend. This extra amount helps poor families manage school expenses. However, if you are not enrolled in that program, then you will only receive the basic payment of Rs. 13,500. You can ask the BISP staff for more details about education support when you visit the center.
