Who is Eligible for BISP Support in 2025?

Before we jump into the balance check steps, it’s good to know who can receive this financial help. In 2025, the government has made a few changes to ensure the right families benefit:

• The head of the family must be a woman (widow, divorced, or married) with low or no regular income.
• Households must fall below the poverty score set by BISP (usually determined through NSER surveys).
• Families must not own big properties, large vehicles, or have high utility bills.
• NADRA information must be updated and match your current situation.

So, if you meet these points, you can receive quarterly payments. Keeping your CNIC up to date and active in NADRA’s record is crucial. Without it, you might face delays or even be marked ineligible.
