BISP 8171 Phase 1 Payment Update for April 2025

If you’re a beneficiary of the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) and waiting for your next payment, we have some important news for you. The BISP 8171 Phase 1 payment update for April 2025 has officially been announced. This article will guide you through everything—when the payment starts, who will receive it, and which cities are included in Phase 1.

When Will the BISP 13,500 PKR Installment Start?

The next BISP payment of PKR 13,500 is scheduled to begin on Monday, April 14, 2025. Initially, there were reports that the distribution might begin on April 7, but due to cash availability issues, it has been delayed by a week.

Check 8171 Payment Status

Traditionally, BISP payments are distributed on Mondays or Wednesdays, so April 14 is the confirmed date for the first phase.

Who Will Receive the 13,500 PKR Payment?

Here’s a breakdown of who can expect this installment:

• Regular Beneficiaries: If you are already receiving BISP payments regularly, you will most likely get the April 2025 installment.
• New Beneficiaries: If you’ve recently completed your NSER survey, you might have to wait until July 2025 for your first payment. The current phase mainly targets those already registered in the system.

The government is working hard to ensure all deserving families receive financial support under BISP.

Phase 1 vs Phase 2: Which Cities Are Included?

The distribution is happening in phases. Not all cities will receive payments on April 14. This depends on which bank is managing the payment process in each area.

Phase 2 Cities – Payment Not Available on April 14

These cities will receive their payments later in May or June 2025, mainly because HBL Connect handles their distribution:

• Rawalpindi
• Islamabad
• Faisalabad
• Karachi (All districts)
• Sialkot
• Sheikhupura
• Okara
• Gujranwala
• Gujrat
• Sargodha
• Khushab
• Bhakkar
• Vehari
• Thatta
• Umerkot
• Gwadar
• Kech
• Panjgur
• Bajaur
• And many more…

If your city is on this list, don’t visit the campsites on April 14. Your payment is coming soon in Phase 2.

Phase 1 Cities – Payment Starts on April 14

If your city is not in the Phase 2 list, you’re part of Phase 1, and your payment will be available starting April 14, 2025. These cities include areas where Bank Alfalah, JazzCash, EasyPaisa, or Bank of Punjab manage the transactions.

Examples of Phase 1 cities:

• Mianwali
• Multan
• Chiniot
• Dera Ghazi Khan
• Rahim Yar Khan
• Tounsa

If your city isn’t listed under Phase 2, then you’re eligible to collect the payment in this round.

How to Collect Your BISP 13,500 PKR Installment

Follow these simple steps to receive your payment:

1. Visit your nearest BISP campsite between April 14 and April 21, 2025.
2. Bring your original CNIC (identity card) for verification.
3. Collect your money through the assigned payment provider in your city (Bank Alfalah, EasyPaisa, JazzCash, or Bank of Punjab).

What About Taleemi Wazaif (Children’s Stipends)?

If you’re eligible for children’s stipends, you may receive them along with the 13,500 PKR installment during this phase.

However, in Phase 2 cities managed by HBL Connect, the stipends will be bundled with the next round of payments.

For Women Who’ve Already Received Payments

Some women who recently completed their NSER surveys or received partial payments may be wondering whether they will still get the full 13,500 PKR. This is still being confirmed by the authorities. Once we have official clarification, we’ll update this section.
