حکومت پاکستان نے 2026-27 کے مالی سال کے بجٹ میں غریب اور نادار افراد کے لیے بے نظیر انکم سپورٹ پروگرام (BISP) کے فنڈز میں 17 فیصد اضافہ کیا ہے، جس کے بعد یہ بجٹ 838 ارب روپے تک پہنچ گیا ہے۔ اس اضافے کا مقصد ملک بھر میں 1 کروڑ 20 لاکھ (12 Million) خاندانوں کو مالی امداد فراہم کرنا ہے۔

The Government of Pakistan has significantly expanded the social safety net in the 2026-27 Federal Budget. The budget for the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has been increased by 17% to Rs. 838 billion. Under the core BISP Kafaalat initiative, the government aims to support 12 million highly vulnerable families with direct quarterly cash transfers. This guide will help you understand the new criteria and check your eligibility online.

1. What is the BISP Kafaalat Program? (بے نظیر کفالت کیا ہے؟)

بے نظیر کفالت پروگرام ملک کا سب سے بڑا کیش ٹرانسفر پروگرام ہے جس کا مقصد مستحق خواتین کو مالی خودمختاری فراہم کرنا ہے۔

BISP Kafaalat is the flagship unconditional cash transfer program of the Government of Pakistan. It specifically targets the poorest segments of society by providing a regular quarterly stipend (currently updated to around Rs. 10,500) directly to the female heads of eligible households. The program plays a crucial role in reducing extreme poverty and empowering women financially.

✅ BISP Kafaalat 2026 Eligibility Calculator

Answer 5 simple questions to check if your household meets the rigorous National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) criteria for 2026.

1. Does the female head of the family have a valid computerized National Identity Card (CNIC)? کیا خاندان کی خاتون سربراہ کے پاس کارآمد شناختی کارڈ (CNIC) موجود ہے؟

2. Is the applicant or their spouse a current/retired Government Employee? کیا آپ یا آپ کا شریک حیات سرکاری ملازم (یا ریٹائرڈ) ہیں؟

3. Does anyone in the family own a car, have more than 12 acres of agricultural land, or travelled abroad recently? کیا خاندان کے پاس گاڑی، 12 ایکڑ سے زیادہ زمین، یا حالیہ بیرون ملک سفر کا ریکارڈ ہے؟

4. Has your household participated in the NSER (National Socio-Economic Registry) Survey recently? کیا آپ نے حال ہی میں NSER سروے مکمل کیا ہے؟

5. Is your family's PMT (Poverty) Score calculated below 32 according to the NSER survey? کیا آپ کا غربت کا سکور (PMT) 32 سے کم ہے؟

2. How to Check Your Status via 8171 in 2026? (اہلیت چیک کرنے کا طریقہ)

آپ گھر بیٹھے اپنے موبائل فون سے 8171 پر اپنا شناختی کارڈ نمبر بھیج کر یا سرکاری ویب پورٹل کے ذریعے اپنی اہلیت اور رقم کی تفصیلات چیک کر سکتے ہیں۔

The Government has made the verification process seamless through the 8171 service. Here is how you can check:

  • SMS Verification: Type your 13-digit CNIC number in your mobile's message box and send it to 8171. You will receive a reply confirming your eligibility.
  • Online Web Portal: Visit the official 8171 web portal (8171.bisp.gov.pk). Enter your CNIC number and the captcha code to instantly view your family's registration status and payment details.

3. The Importance of the NSER Survey 2026 (سروے کی اہمیت)

BISP does not require a traditional "application form". Instead, families are identified through the National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER). To combat fraud and ensure funds reach the right people, the government dynamically updates this registry.

اگر آپ کا نام شامل نہیں ہے تو اپنے قریبی BISP تحصیل آفس میں واقع NSER رجسٹریشن سنٹر (Dynamic Registry Desk) پر جا کر اپنا سروے مکمل کروائیں۔

  • PMT Score Threshold: The Poverty Measure Test (PMT) score determines eligibility. Generally, a score below 32 qualifies a household for the Kafaalat stipend.
  • Dynamic Registry: If your financial situation has worsened, or if you were previously excluded, you can visit a BISP Tehsil office to update your household data at the Dynamic Registry Desks.
