Why was the BISP payment stopped for three months?
The Benazir Income Support Program was temporarily suspended on July 1, 2025, due to the collapse of public sector banks across Pakistan. All banks and payment platforms were also closed, making payments impossible on that day. Now, payments from July to September have been suspended. The Benazir Income Support Program payments will start in the last week of September 2025. The Benazir Income Support Program payments will be made to 13,500 poor beneficiaries who are eligible for this program. Certain conditions also apply to be eligible for this program.
The most important thing is to register for the program. You should not have a government job or any government assistance, and neither should anyone in your family have any large property or vehicle, etc. If you want to be eligible for this program, you must meet the conditions of the Benazir Income Support Program.

Payment receipt and data verification
Benazir Income Support Program payments were suspended again between July 4 and July 7, 2025. The plan was to establish a plan to update and describe the information of beneficiaries to ensure that the deceased did not trust the system and to ensure that the records were accurate and up-to-date. The Benazir Income Support Program was restarted in July with seven leaks under the program, which were suspended again. It will now start from the last week of September 2025.
Authentication failure in the biometric authentication system.
According to the database, biometric verification errors have been detected, which may result in partial or incomplete payment of eligible payments. This error has caused delays in the process, but it should be resolved immediately so that payments can be started in phases after the resolution of critical issues.

Identity card biometrics and data matching
For many beneficiaries, biometric verification has been delayed due to failures and issues with the ID card. Cracked or blurred fingerprints, common among the elderly or laborers, prevent successful scans of the matrix. The quality of the card may be compromised, or the card may not match the personal details as per NADRA and BISP records.
When will Benazir Income Support Program payments begin?
In view of the situation in the country, the payment of the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) has been stopped from July 10 to September 10. This payment, which was supposed to start in the first week of September, will now start in the last week of September in view of the situation in the country. All beneficiaries are informed that no beneficiary should go to the shop or camp site but pray for the country of Pakistan. May Allah protect us from this punishment.

Final Thought
The Benazir Income Support Programme has made a significant change to its payment distribution system, opting to close the temporary camp sites that were used for the July-September payments. This decision was made in response to various issues reported at the camps, including long queues, technical problems with biometric systems, a lack of basic facilities like seating and shade, and general overcrowding and mismanagement.
To address these challenges and improve convenience and accessibility for beneficiaries, BISP has decided to revert to distributing payments through designated shops and retail outlets. This change is expected to reduce overcrowding, offer beneficiaries more flexible times to collect their payments, and ensure faster transactions through biometric verification at a wider network of locations.
