The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) in Pakistan is a government initiative providing financial assistance to low-income households, particularly women and children. In 2025, document verification will be mandatory for receiving stipends under the Benazir Kafaalat program and the Taleemi Wazaif (children’s education allowance). Failure to complete the verification process can lead to delays or payment suspensions.

The program covers Benazir Kafaalat (Women Stipend) and Taleemi Wazaif (Child Education Support). Verification is necessary to confirm eligibility, update NSER data, and avoid fraud. Verification can be done at the Benazir Tehsil Office or the BISP Mobile Van for remote areas. Documents required include CNIC, Child Bay Form, Utility Bill, and School Certificate. Only female beneficiaries are required for Kafaalat verification.
