The long wait is finally over! The Benazir Kafaalat Program has now entered its final phase for payments, starting from May 26, 2025. This is big news for those eligible women who haven’t received the previous 13500 installment yet. The final list includes 17 districts where payments are now being rolled out through official BISP centers, HBL Konnect retailers, and designated campsites.
If you live in one of these districts, now’s the time to act.
Why Are Payments Released in Phases?
You might wonder — why not just send out payments to everyone at once?
Here’s why:
-
Avoiding Crowds: Phased distribution helps reduce long queues at payment centers.
-
Transparency: It prevents fraud and ensures only verified beneficiaries get their due.
-
Priority-Based Support: Urban and accessible areas were prioritized earlier; now, remote areas are getting their turn.
This method ensures the support reaches the right hands, without chaos or confusion.

-
Those who have completed NSER surveys and are now marked eligible.
-
