Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Answers to the questions most searched by BISP beneficiaries online.

What should I do if my biometric finger verification fails at the retailer?

If your fingerprint registration is not recognized, try washing your hands or applying lotion. If it fails three times, you must visit the nearest BISP Tehsil Office to file a fingerprint verification complaint. BISP will verify your identity via NADRA and coordinate with partner banks (HBL/Alfalah) to issue payments via OTP verification.

Are there any charges or fees for checking BISP status or registering?

No! The BISP registration survey, NSER dynamic updates, and eligibility status checks via the 8171 web portal or SMS are **100% free**. No agent is authorized to deduct any fee from your stipend. If an agent asks for money, immediately report them to BISP's helpline: 03052161669.

Why does my status show "Ineligible" and how can I change it?

Ineligibility is determined by your household PMT (Proxy Means Test) score, calculated from NSER survey data. If your economic conditions have worsened, or if your survey is older than three years, you should visit the nearest BISP registration center to complete a Dynamic Survey. BISP will re-evaluate your household score.

How do I verify the Benazir Mobile SIM registration?

Visit a BISP Tehsil center or a registered mobile dealer. You must present your original CNIC. The SIM card will be issued free of cost in the name of the female beneficiary. The SIM is then linked to the BISP database to serve as the gateway for your future digital wallet payouts.
