Great news for families in Multan! The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has officially announced that the new phase of payments under the BISP 8171 initiative will start on Wednesday, June 12, 2025. This marks the second quarterly installment for the year, and eligible women in Multan will be able to receive their payments smoothly through designated camps.
Let’s break down everything you need to know so you don’t miss out.
When and Where Will Payments Be Distributed?
The second installment for 2025 under BISP 8171 will be available starting June 12, specifically for the Multan district, which falls under Cluster 6 in the program’s rollout.
To make the process easier and more organized, BISP has set up temporary payment camps across Multan. These sites are managed in collaboration with the Bank of Punjab, which will be handling the cash disbursement.
Each campsite includes:
-
Biometric verification machines
-
Bank counters for direct withdrawal
-
Help desks for questions and complaints
Make sure to head to your nearest BISP campsite early in the day to avoid long queues.
How Much Will Eligible Women Receive?
This quarter’s payment is set at Rs. 13,500 per eligible family. The amount remains consistent with BISP’s ongoing efforts to support low-income households struggling with inflation and rising expenses.
Keep in mind, this payment is only for those who have not yet received the second quarterly installment. If you already received it earlier, you are not eligible to collect again during this round.

How to Confirm Your Eligibility Before Visiting?

-
Online Portal – Visit the BISP 8171 portal and enter your CNIC to view your status.
-
Call Center – Dial the BISP helpline and speak to a representative.
-
Local Office – Visit your nearest BISP office in Multan for in-person assistance.
It’s highly recommended to check in advance to save time and avoid disappointment at the camp.
Documents to Bring When Collecting Your Payment
When heading to the BISP campsite, make sure to bring the following with you:
-
Your original CNIC
-
Your registered mobile number
-
Any SMS notification received from 8171
-
Your own presence – remember, biometric thumbprint verification is required, and no one else can collect the payment on your behalf.
Avoid sending someone in your place, even if they are family. The system is designed to protect your payment and ensure only the rightful recipient gets the money.
