If you haven’t received your payment yet, you might be part of Phase 2, which includes those still under verification or from districts scheduled for later distribution. This article will explain who qualifies, how to complete Phase 2 verification, and what to do if your payment is still pending.
What Is Phase 2 of the Benazir Kafalat 13500 Payment?
To ensure smooth delivery of payments and avoid overcrowding, the BISP (Benazir Income Support Program) is releasing the Rs. 13,500 payments in two phases.
- Phase 1: Covered major districts from May 1 to May 30, 2025
- Phase 2: Will run from April 10 to April 25, 2025, focusing on:
- Remaining districts
- Newly verified beneficiaries
- Families whose documents or verification were delayed
If you’re still waiting for your payment, you’re likely in Phase 2 and will need to complete verification first.
Why Is Verification So Important?
Before any payment is made, BISP requires all applicants to go through a verification process. This step helps:
- Confirm that the person is genuinely eligible
- Prevent fraudulent claims
- Make sure government money reaches the right people
Verification is done using your CNIC, biometric data, and your family’s NSER (National Socio-Economic Registry) score.
