The Benazir Kafalat Program, under the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP), offers financial aid to eligible women in Pakistan. This guide provides essential information regarding eligibility, payment details, and the disbursement process for beneficiaries.
Benazir Kafalat Program
The Benazir Kafalat Program 2024 is a key initiative under the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP), aimed at providing financial assistance to underprivileged families in Pakistan. Eligible families can receive Rs. 10,500 by registering at the nearest MobiCash franchise. To enroll, individuals need to present their original CNIC at one of the many tehsil offices across the country. Eligibility is verified through a dynamic search using the CNIC, and confirmation is sent via SMS from the number 8171. Once confirmed, beneficiaries can collect their payments from designated locations.
Payment Details and Eligibility
June Payment Breakdown
Women benefiting from the Benazir Kafalat Program are now entitled to receive Rs. 10,500. Additionally, an installment of Rs. 4,500 is available for those with children enrolled in the Benazir Taleemi Wazaif program. The combined total of Rs. 15,000 is disbursed to help alleviate financial burdens.

- Visiting the nearest BISP office.
- Sending their National Identity Card (NIC) details to 8171.
Verification must be completed before June 1 to be included in the beneficiary list.
Disbursement Method
Phased Payment Approach
Due to extreme heat, the government has decided to disburse payments in two phases to ensure safety and ease of access:

- Second Phase: Subsequent distribution for remaining beneficiaries.
This phased approach helps avoid crowding and ensures smooth distribution.
