BISP 8171 Update
The July 2025 installment under BISP 8171 Update has started from July, in which financial assistance of Rs. 13,500 is being given to deserving women. Along with this, the amount of “educational scholarships” for the children of these women has also been included so that the educational needs of the children can be met. More than 80 districts of Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan and Azad Kashmir have been included in this phase, while phases 2 and 3 will start soon for the remaining areas.
Women must carry the original CNIC, registered mobile number, confirmation message from 8171, and if they want to take education scholarships, the child’s B form. Use only BISP approved campuses, HBL Connect agents or biometric ATMs to receive the payment. If the SMS is not received or the fingerprints do not match, contact the nearest NADRA or BISP Tehsil office.

To check your eligibility, you can verify your CNIC by SMSing it to 8171 or online at 8171.bisp.gov.pk. Remember that all BISP facilities are free, paying money to anyone is strictly prohibited. If your name is not included in the first phase, don’t worry, the next phases are starting soon, just keep checking your information on time.
Relief for Families – What’s New in July 2025
The Government of Pakistan has launched this quarterly installment as part of its continued efforts to uplift underprivileged families. Starting July 2, 2025, eligible women will receive Rs.13,500 under the Benazir Kafalat program. In addition to the cash grant, families with school-going children will also receive Taleemi Wazaif, or educational scholarships, to help cover the cost of education.
This update includes multiple new features:
- An increased cash grant (Rs.13,500 per family)
- Inclusion of educational support for children

More than 80 districts across Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, and Azad Jammu & Kashmir are included in Phase 1 of this payment cycle. The remaining areas will be covered in Phase 2 and Phase 3, later in July 2025.
