Importance of CNIC for Verification & Receiving 13,500

A valid, verified CNIC is the major requirement to get the BISP Kafalat October 2025 payment of Rs. 13,500. Without a valid CNIC, no beneficiary will be able to access their installment.

• Identity Verification

After biometric verification through CNIC, the related payments are released.

• Data Matching

The details of your CNIC must match the records in the BISP 8171 system.

• Updates Required

Updates if the CNIC has expired or information has changed, such as address and marital status, should be made first at NADRA before payment. 

• Security Measure

Using CNIC makes everything transparent and stops fraud or double entry.

Payment Collection Methods

• Bank Transfer to Partner Bank Accounts

Remittances shall be credited to partner banks associated with BISP. Beneficiaries may withdraw funds from the respective bank branch by presenting their CNIC.

• Withdrawals via ATMs

Those having accounts with banks can easily draw their quota using ATMs of the selected banks on simple verification based on CNIC. This will offer beneficiaries flexibility and convenience.

• Cash points/camps

BISP sets up several cash points or payment camps for those individuals who do not possess a bank account, where they can easily go and collect their payments after biometric verification through their CNIC. Their beneficiaries will simply walk into these centers.

• Digital Wallets (Where Applicable)

In some regions, digital wallet services are being piloted. Beneficiaries can receive their payments directly into mobile wallets, which can later be cashed out or used for transactions.

What to Do If Payment Is Delayed

• Check Status Online or through SMS
