The Government of Pakistan has once again taken an important step to ensure that financial aid through the Benazir Kafalat Program reaches only deserving families. From January 2025, the quarterly payment has been increased from Rs. 10,500 to Rs. 13,500. However, to receive this increased amount, it is now mandatory for beneficiaries to complete a process called revalidation. Without it, you may face delays or suspension in your payment scheduled for April 2025.
What Is Benazir Kafalat Revalidation?
Revalidation is a verification process introduced by the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) to update your personal, biometric, and financial information in their records. This step ensures that only those who still meet the eligibility criteria continue to receive financial support.
Through revalidation, the BISP system can filter out ineligible individuals and confirm the data of deserving beneficiaries. If you’re already registered in the program but haven’t gone through revalidation, your payment of Rs. 13,500 might be put on hold.

Rs. 13,500 Payment Update – What’s New in 2025?
Due to rising inflation and increasing living costs, the BISP has raised the quarterly installment under the Benazir Kafalat Program. The new amount, Rs. 13,500, will be disbursed in phases starting in April 2025. But this benefit is only available to those who have successfully completed the revalidation process.
How to Complete Revalidation at BISP Tehsil Office
To revalidate your information, visit your nearest BISP Tehsil Office with the following documents:
- Original CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card)
- Utility bills (gas or electricity) for proof of residence
- Any form of income verification or livelihood details
If you face biometric problems like fingerprint mismatches, follow these steps:
- Visit your nearest NADRA office to update your biometric data
- Notify the BISP office about the issue
- Register your complaint at the Tehsil office
After successfully updating your records, you will receive a confirmation SMS from 8171 stating your eligibility and payment status.

Last Date to Complete Revalidation
The deadline to complete your revalidation for the April 2025 payment is April 30, 2025. Those who fail to verify their data before this date may not receive their Rs. 13,500 installment on time. Delays can also lead to suspension of future payments until verification is completed.
That’s why it’s important not to wait until the last minute. Visit the Tehsil office as soon as possible to avoid long lines and technical issues closer to the deadline.

- Bank Transfer – Direct deposit into the beneficiary’s bank account
- JazzCash Wallet – Receive payments through mobile wallet services
- Face Verification – Especially for elderly people or those facing biometric challenges
These updated payment options have been launched to ensure that no eligible person misses out on their installment due to technical issues or access barriers.

Who Needs Revalidation?
All existing beneficiaries of the Benazir Kafalat Program must go through the revalidation process — whether they’ve received past payments or are recently registered. Even those who were declared ineligible earlier but have now updated their circumstances need to complete revalidation for April 2025.
If you’ve already revalidated in recent months and received a confirmation SMS from 8171, then you don’t need to worry. But if you haven’t done this step yet, do it now before the deadline.
