BISP Phase 3: Women with 1 Installment or PKR 5000 Now Included

The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has issued a significant update for women beneficiaries who were registered and declared eligible in January 2025. Many of these women either received their first instalment of PKR 13,500 or were eligible but did not receive any payment. The program has announced the resumption and release of pending payments, starting May 28, 2025, in selected districts across Pakistan.

In a significant update, women who received PKR 5,000 under the Prime Minister’s Ramzan Relief Package are now included in BISP Kafalat Phase 3. However, this inclusion is selective. Only those beneficiaries whose records have been successfully verified through NADRA and whose BISP accounts are currently active and open will be eligible to receive payments in this phase. This step ensures transparency and targets only verified and deserving recipients.

This phase of payments is for:

• Women who received their first instalment of PKR 13,500 in January 2025.
• Women who were declared eligible but did not receive their first payment.

The disbursement will be carried out in phases to ensure smooth and transparent delivery of funds.
