Why Did the Government Announce Double BISP Payment in 2025?
The government increased the BISP amount due to high inflation and rising costs of food, electricity, and fuel. The regular Rs 8,500 was not enough for many families. The aim is to help with essential needs, support children’s education, assist widows and elderly women, and provide relief to flood-hit areas as part of the 2025 poverty reduction plan.
Common Issues Faced While Collecting BISP Payments
Even though the double payment is helpful, some people face problems when collecting it.
Common problems include:
- Biometric failure at payment centers
- SIM not registered on the beneficiary’s name
- Expired CNIC
- Fake messages or scams
Tips to avoid issues:
- Keep your CNIC and SIM card updated
- Only trust messages from official BISP sources
- Do not pay anyone for receiving your money
