Are your BISP payments stopped or delayed? Good news — the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has launched a reverification process in July 2025 to help suspended beneficiaries restore their payments. If you rely on the Rs. 13,500 grant to manage daily expenses, this step-by-step guide will help you fix issues and get your payments restarted.
🔄 What’s New with BISP in July 2025?
The BISP is updating records to ensure only eligible low-income families receive financial aid. If your payments have been blocked, it’s likely due to outdated info or technical mismatches. Here’s what’s new:
✅ Faster payment processing
✅ Biometric fraud checks enhanced
✅ More CNIC verification options (SMS, portal, and office visits)
🚫 Why Were Payments Suspended?
Here are the most common reasons your Rs. 13,500 payment may have been paused:
| Reason | Explanation |
|---|---|
| 🔄 Outdated NSER survey | Changes in income, family size, or location |
| ❌ Expired CNIC | Your ID has expired and needs renewal |
| 🧬 Biometric mismatch | Fingerprint does not match NADRA record |
| ⚠️ Suspicious activity | Possible fraud or duplicate registration |
If you received an 8171 SMS saying “Re-verification Required,” this guide is for you.
