Benazir Kafalat Program 2025 – New Registration Resumes

Benazir Kafalat Program 2025

The Government of Pakistan has reopened the registration process for Benazir Kafalat Program 2025. This decision has come as a new opportunity for thousands of families who could not register in the first phase due to some reason.

Now, eligible families will be able to receive a relief amount of Rs. 13,500 every three months to meet their household expenses in this period of inflation.

حکومتِ پاکستان نے بے نظیر انکم سپورٹ پروگرام (BISP) کفالت 2025 کے لیے رجسٹریشن کا عمل دوبارہ کھول دیا ہے۔ یہ فیصلہ ان ہزاروں خاندانوں کے لیے ایک نئے موقع کے طور پر سامنے آیا ہے جو پہلے مرحلے میں کسی وجہ سے رجسٹر نہیں ہو سکے تھے۔
اب اہل خاندان ہر تین ماہ بعد 13,500 روپے کی امدادی رقم حاصل کر سکیں گے تاکہ مہنگائی کے اس دور میں اپنے گھریلو اخراجات پورے کر سکیں۔

Why Was The Registration Resumed?

The government took this step because in the first phase, many eligible families could not join the program due to various technical reasons. The following issues were common among them:

• Incomplete or outdated NSER (National Socio-Economic Registry) records
• Biometric verification issues in NADRA
• Identity card errors or expiration
• Failure to update household data on time

Through the new registration, the government will resolve all these issues and include as many poor households as possible in the program.

Which Families Are Being Given Priority?

The Benazir Kafalat Program aims to provide assistance only to those families who are truly financially weak. The following families are eligible for registration in this phase:

• Those with a monthly household income of less than Rs 40,000
• Whose female head of the household has a valid NADRA identity card
• Those who do not have any government employee or pensioner in the household
• Who do not own agricultural land or commercial property
• Who are not already benefiting from any other government assistance program

In addition, special preference is being given to widows, disabled women and senior citizens.

Step By Step Complete Registration Procedure

If you want to join this program, follow the steps below:

• Go to your nearest BISP Tehsil Office
• If you have not completed the NSER survey earlier, do it there.
• Provide details of your household income, residence and dependents.
• Get biometric verification done at the desk connected to NADRA.
• After completing the registration, wait for the confirmation SMS from 8171.

Required Documents

Carry the following documents with you to avoid any delay in the process:

• Original Identity Card of the female head
• Form B of children (issued by NADRA)
• Proof of residence (electricity or gas bill, or rent receipt)
• Death certificate of husband for widow
• Disability certificate (if applicable)

Phase-Wise Registration Begins

BISP teams have started the registration process in district-wise phases. First, priority is being given to the most pending applications in urban areas, after which the process will be started in rural areas. Families have been advised to wait for the official announcement regarding their area to avoid congestion.

Common Problems and Their Solutions

Transparency measures in the Kafalat program

The government has taken several steps to make the financial assistance process transparent:

• Digital verification system through NADRA
• Automatic notification through 8171 SMS alerts
• Instant verification from NSER database
• Monitoring teams in Tehsil offices
• Payment approval only after complete verification
• This system ensures that the assistance reaches only the eligible families.

Why Were Many Families Left Out In The Past?

Thousands of families could not join in the previous phases due to the following reasons:

• NSER record was incomplete or outdated

• Technical glitch in biometric verification
• Failure to submit the form within the stipulated period
