The Government of Pakistan has officially launched the BISP Payment Re-Verification Process for November 2025 under the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP). This initiative ensures that financial assistance continues only for genuine and deserving beneficiaries. Every registered household must complete re-verification to keep receiving their Rs. 13,500 quarterly installment without interruption. The government has made it easier for citizens to check their re-verification status online through two simple methods via the 8171 Web Portal and 8171 SMS Service.
What is the BISP Payment Re-Verification Process
The BISP Re-Verification is a mandatory process for all current beneficiaries of the Benazir Kafaalat Programme. Its main purpose is to update household information, verify CNIC and biometric data, and confirm eligibility based on the latest poverty score. This step helps the government remove duplicate or inactive entries and ensures transparency in financial aid distribution.

The re-verification process is being carried out across all BISP Tehsil Offices in Pakistan. Beneficiaries must visit their nearest office with the required documents and complete biometric verification. Once the verification is done, they can check their payment and eligibility status online.
Why Re-Verification is Important for Beneficiaries
Re-verification helps both the government and beneficiaries by maintaining accuracy in welfare data. Families who fail to complete this process may face temporary suspension of their payments until their information is updated. This ensures that only qualified individuals continue to receive support.
Key benefits of re-verification include:
- Continued eligibility for the Rs. 13,500 quarterly payment
- Removal of fraudulent or duplicate records
- Improved transparency and accountability
- Updated database for future welfare schemes such as Ehsaas and Taleemi Wazaif
