The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has been a lifeline for low-income families in Pakistan. But recently, many beneficiaries found their payments halted, specifically the Rs. 13,500 installment. The primary reason? Their CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) had expired, and the BISP system couldn’t verify their identity.
بینظیر انکم سپورٹ پروگرام کی رقم رک گئی؟ یہ وجہ ہو سکتی ہے
اگر آپ کی رقم نہیں آئی تو فکر نہ کریں۔ اگر آپ کا شناختی کارڈ ختم ہو گیا ہے، تو یہی وجہ ہو سکتی ہے۔ بی آئی ایس پی کا سسٹم نادرا سے جُڑا ہوا ہے، اور جب CNIC ایکسپائر ہو جاتا ہے، تو آپ کا ریکارڈ غیر فعال ہو جاتا ہے۔
ادائیگی بحال کروانے کا آسان طریقہ یہ ہے
آپ کو صرف نادرا دفتر جا کر اپنا شناختی کارڈ تجدید کروانا ہے، پھر بی آئی ایس پی سینٹر جا کر ریکارڈ اپڈیٹ کرنا ہے۔ اس کے بعد آپ کو 8171 سے SMS آئے گا اور آپ اپنی رقم وصول کر سکیں گے۔
Why Was Your BISP Payment Blocked?
When your CNIC expires, BISP’s system, integrated with NADRA, can’t verify your identity. This leads to:
-
Biometric verification failure
-
Your record is being marked as “inactive”
-
Automatic suspension of your payment
This measure helps reduce fraud, but it’s also impacted many genuine beneficiaries, especially women in rural areas.

Who Is Affected?
Over 300,000 women have had their BISP payments blocked due to expired CNICs. Most of them were unaware of the issue until they visited a center to collect their funds.
Many live in areas where NADRA access is limited, making it harder to renew their ID cards on time.
