8171 Web Portal 2025
Millions of worthy families receive financial support through Pakistan’s largest social safety net, the Benazir Income Support Program. The program has undergone a number of significant modifications in 2025 to better serve the public with increased convenience and openness. Through the 8171 web portal and SMS service, you can now verify your eligibility and payment details from the comfort of your home, regardless of whether you are a new applicant or an existing beneficiary.
Update Regarding 2025 New Payments
The Benazir Kafalat Program beneficiaries will begin receiving an installment of Rs. 13,500 in September 2025. To cut down on delays and hassles, these payments are being made in stages across various districts. In order to provide relief to the impacted individuals as quickly as possible, I would like to make it clear that, due to the flood situation, assistance will only be given in the initial phase in the districts that have been most affected.
