What Is the Rs. 24,500 Payment?
This Rs. 24,500 installment is a combined cash benefit for registered families under various government social welfare programs. It includes:
Rs. 13,500 from BISP Kafalat
Rs. 11,000 from Ehsaas Emergency Assistance (for selected districts or during hardship cases)
These payments are being disbursed together in a single transaction to make the process easier for both the government and the people.
Start Date: When Will You Get the Payment?
The government has confirmed that the payment process will begin from 25 May 2025 in the first phase.
Distribution Phases
Phase 1 – 25 to 30 May: Urban districts and priority cases
Phase 2 – 1 to 7 June: Rural and remote areas
Phase 3 – 8 to 15 June: Review cases and re-verifications
Beneficiaries are advised to wait for an SMS confirmation from 8171 before visiting their payment center.
Who Is Eligible for the Rs. 24,500 Payment?
Not every applicant will receive the full amount. The Rs. 24,500 is meant for families who meet the following conditions:
Eligibility Criteria:
Registered in the NSER survey
Belong to a low-income household
Do not have a government job
Not receiving similar aid from other programs
Widows, orphans, persons with disabilities, and unemployed individuals are given preference
Live in areas marked for dual-assistance (both Ehsaas and BISP)
If you previously received a payment of Rs. 9,000 or Rs. 13,000, and your household status has changed or worsened, you may now qualify for the Rs. 24,500 package.
How to Check If You’re Selected
The government has made it simple to verify your status:
Method 1: SMS Check via 8171
Open your SMS app
Type your 13-digit CNIC number (without dashes)
Send it to 8171
You will receive a reply about your payment eligibility and status
Method 2: Online Portal
Go to the official site: 8171.bisp.gov.pk
Enter your CNIC and the provided captcha code
Click “Check Status”
It will display whether you’re selected for Rs. 24,500, pending, or not eligible
How to Receive the Payment
The Rs. 24,500 amount will be distributed through designated BISP & Ehsaas payment centers, as well as partner banks and retailers.
Payment Methods:
BISP Campsites: Temporary setups in local schools or community halls
Bank Partners: HBL, Bank Alfalah ATMs (for those with debit cards)
Retail Outlets: Registered agents using biometric systems
Documents Required:
Original CNIC
B-Form (for children, if required)
SMS confirmation (optional but recommended)
Make sure your thumbprint is clear and your CNIC is not expired, or the system will reject your biometric verification.
What If You Face Biometric Issues?
Many women and senior citizens report problems with fingerprint mismatches. If this happens:
Visit your nearest BISP Tehsil office
Request manual verification or biometric re-capture
Submit supporting documents like a family registration certificate or utility bills
You can also register a complaint on the BISP helpline: 0800-26477
What to Avoid (Important Warning)
Do not pay any agent to get you enrolled or speed up your payment
Avoid fake websites or SMS asking for money or personal details
Do not share your CNIC number with untrusted sources
If someone promises Rs. 24,500 in exchange for a fee—it’s a scam
The government does not charge anything for registration or payment processing.
