What’s New in BISP Phase 3 – August 2025

The third phase of the BISP 8171 payment rollout for 2025 includes important updates for both rural and urban beneficiaries.

• Payment disbursement began in early August and is ongoing across selected districts

• Beneficiaries can collect their payment via mobile vans or by using their BISP ATM cards
  
• New districts and remote areas are being covered, especially those previously left out
  
• Adjustments have been made in the PMT score criteria to include more eligible households
  

Who Is Eligible for the BISP 8171 August Payment

To qualify for the Rs. 13,500 (or Rs. 27,000 if unpaid in earlier phases), you must meet these criteria:

• Be a woman from a low-income household
  
• Your National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) survey must be completed and verified
  
• Your Poverty Score (PMT) should be under 34
  
• You should not have received payments in Phase 1 or Phase 2
  
• Your CNIC must be valid and successfully verified through biometric systems
  
• You must not be a government employee, pension holder, or a recent international traveler
  

Special consideration is being given to widows and individuals with disabilities, with the PMT threshold raised slightly for them.

How to Check If You’re Eligible

You can confirm your eligibility and payment status using any of these methods:

• Send your CNIC number to 8171 through SMS from your registered mobile number
  
• Visit the official BISP 8171 web portal and check your status online
  
• Go to the nearest BISP Tehsil Office for in-person verification
  
• Call the official helpline for updates and eligibility support
  

If your status shows as eligible, and you haven’t received the payment earlier this year, you will be included in Phase 3.

Payment Collection Methods

Mobile Vans for Rural and Remote Areas

For those living in underserved areas without access to banks or ATMs, mobile van services have been introduced.

• Vans travel to designated villages and union councils on scheduled days
  
• A BISP officer verifies your identity using your CNIC and thumbprint
  
• Once verified, you receive the cash payment on the spot
  
• This method ensures delivery to areas without ATM infrastructure or payment centers
  

ATM Withdrawals for Urban Beneficiaries

If you’ve received a BISP ATM card, you can collect your funds easily from HBL ATMs or affiliated partners.

• Insert your BISP ATM card
  
• Enter your PIN code
  
• Select the cash withdrawal option and enter the amount
  
• Collect your payment and receipt
  

You can also check your available balance before withdrawing funds.

What to Do if Biometric Verification Fails

Sometimes thumbprints don’t match, especially for older citizens or those with worn fingerprints. Here’s what you can do:

• Visit a NADRA office and update your fingerprints in the biometric system
  
• File a biometric failure complaint at your nearest BISP Tehsil Office
  
• Request alternate verification methods, such as facial recognition or secondary biometrics
  
• Make sure your CNIC is clean and undamaged to avoid scanning errors
  

Required Documents for Payment Collection

Before visiting a mobile van or ATM, ensure you have the following:

• Original and valid CNIC
  
• BISP ATM card is collected via the ATM
  
• Registered mobile number for updates and verification
  
• Updated biometric data with NADRA
  

What If the Mobile Van Hasn’t Arrived in Your Area Yet

If your location hasn’t been visited yet, or no van has shown up:

• Wait for your village’s scheduled van visit, usually announced by local officers
  
• Call the BISP helpline or visit the nearest BISP office to check the upcoming schedule
  
• In some cases, payments may be shifted to nearby ATM or agent locations for convenience
