The Government of Pakistan has officially launched Phase 2 of the Rs.13,500 double installment distribution under the Benazir Kafaalat Program, bringing much-needed relief to eligible women across the country. This extended payment cycle comes as part of a strategic effort to provide enhanced support to families struggling with inflation, food insecurity, and rising household costs in 2025.
This phase includes double payments for beneficiaries who missed or were unable to collect their previous installment due to documentation issues, biometric verification delays, or other administrative hurdles. With the economy still recovering from fiscal challenges and rising utility prices, this payment boost is timely and essential for vulnerable households relying on state assistance to survive.
What Is the Rs.13,500 Double Installment?
The Rs.13,500 double installment under the Benazir Kafaalat Program is a combined payment of two regular cycles, each typically valued at Rs.6,750. Women who missed their prior disbursement in early 2025 are now being compensated with both cycles together.
This initiative is part of BISP’s Phase 2 payment schedule, targeting districts and regions that were left out in Phase 1 due to logistical limitations. Women receiving the Rs.13,500 in this phase are being notified via official SMS from 8171, ensuring that only verified beneficiaries are informed of their eligibility.

How to Receive the Rs.13,500 Payment
BISP has established two primary channels for payment collection to ensure ease and transparency:
- Designated Campsites and Retailers:
Payment centers and camps have been set up across rural and urban areas with biometric systems to authenticate identities and issue payments. - ATM Withdrawals:
Eligible women can also withdraw their Rs.13,500 from partner banks such as Habib Bank Limited (HBL) and Bank Alfalah, using their CNIC and biometric verification.
Beneficiaries must bring their original CNIC and avoid paying any form of commission or “service fee” to agents. Any deductions should be immediately reported to the BISP helpline.

Government Oversight and Digital Verification
To ensure that the funds reach deserving hands, the government has implemented strict monitoring, digital tracking, and biometric verification protocols. The BISP team has deployed mobile vans in remote districts to assist with distribution and provide on-spot grievance resolution.
Women can also check their eligibility and payment status online through the 8171 web portal by entering their CNIC. In case of any issues, support is available through district BISP offices and the toll-free helpline (0800-26477).
The government aims to complete Phase 2 distribution by mid-2025, and additional phases will be announced for families who are still awaiting verification or appeal results.
