BISP Kafalat
Established in 2008, the Benazir Kafalat Programme is a crucial initiative by BISP aimed at empowering women and alleviating poverty.
The program targets families struggling with economic hardship, offering financial assistance to navigate challenges like sluggish economic growth, food shortages, and inflation.
This aligns perfectly with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of eradicating extreme poverty and promoting female empowerment.
Over 9 Million Families Benefitting
Currently, the Benazir Kafalat program extends its reach to over 9 million households across Pakistan, providing much-needed financial support.
Increased Aid and Timely Distribution for Ramadan 2024
Here’s the good news for enrolled families:
- Quarterly Aid Increase: Responding to inflationary pressures, the government has recently increased the quarterly cash assistance under the Kafalat program. Eligible families will now receive Rs. 10,500, a significant bump from the previous amount of Rs. 8,500.
- Timely Disbursement for Ramadan Relief: Understanding the increased financial needs during the holy month, BISP has initiated the distribution of the Rs. 10,500 quarterly aid for the January-March 2024 period. This ensures families receive this financial support well ahead of Ramadan, helping them manage expenses during this sacred time.
How to Check BISP Payment Status
Eligible women enrolled in the BISP Kafalat program can check their payment status through the following method:
- SMS Notification: Once identified as a beneficiary, eligible women will receive an SMS alert from 8171. This message signifies that the first installment is ready for collection.
Collecting Your BISP Kafalat Payment
Here’s how to collect your BISP Kafalat payment once you receive the SMS notification:
- Visit Authorized Locations: Head to the nearest designated location within your tehsil. Authorized locations include HBL/BAFL POS (Point of Sale) terminals or participating retailers.
- Bring Original CNIC: Ensure you carry your original CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) for biometric verification.
- Collect First Installment: Upon successful verification, you can collect your first installment of Rs. 10,500 at the designated location.
- Subsequent Installments: For subsequent installments, you have the option to collect them from ATMs in addition to the previously mentioned POS terminals or retailers. This provides beneficiaries with greater flexibility in accessing their financial aid.
BISP Kafalat: A Beacon of Hope During Ramadan
By increasing the quarterly aid and ensuring timely disbursement before Ramadan, the BISP Kafalat program aims to alleviate the financial burden on deserving families.
This financial support empowers them to meet essential needs and celebrate Ramadan with greater peace of mind.
