Benazir Kafalat April 2025: Why Many Women Were Disqualified & How to Rejoin

Thousands of women across Pakistan are suddenly facing disqualification from the Benazir Kafalat Program in 2025—and the main reason is failure to complete the Dynamic Survey on time. If you or someone you know has stopped receiving the monthly BISP payment, this could be the reason. But don’t worry—you can still rejoin. Here’s everything you need to know about what’s changed, who’s affected, and the fastest way to get back into the program.

What Is the Benazir Kafalat Program?

The Benazir Kafalat Program is part of the wider Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP). It offers financial aid to low-income women through monthly cash payments. These are distributed via payment centers and ATMs to help families manage their basic household needs.

⚠️ New Rule 2025: Who Is Now Ineligible?

A major update has been made:

All women who have received BISP support for 3+ years but skipped the latest Dynamic Survey have been marked ineligible.

This move is part of the government’s effort to update its welfare database and ensure only deserving families continue to benefit.

Why the Disqualification Happened

The reason is simple but serious: outdated or incomplete data. The BISP system now automatically filters out anyone who hasn’t provided updated household details through the required Benazir Dynamic Survey.

What Is the BISP Dynamic Survey?

The Dynamic Survey is a compulsory re-verification process that checks:

• Your current household income

• Family size and dependents

• Employment status

• Assets like house, land, or vehicle ownership

Based on these details, women are either reapproved or declared ineligible depending on their present financial situation.

Missed the Survey? Here’s What It Means

If you didn’t complete the Dynamic Survey, here’s what happens:

• Your monthly Kafalat payments are stopped

• You remain ineligible until you complete a new survey

• Once resubmitted, your case moves to a new, limited quota—making approval harder

What Happens to Your Children’s Taleemi Wazaif?

Good news for mothers:

Your child’s education stipend continues, even if you are disqualified from the Kafalat program.

That’s because Benazir Taleemi Wazaif is linked to the child’s school attendance, not the mother’s eligibility. As long as your children attend school regularly, the stipend remains active.

There’s no fixed date, but it’s highly recommended to complete it ASAP to improve your chances.

What documents do I need for the Dynamic Survey?

You’ll need:

• Original CNIC

• Children’s B-Forms

• Utility bills (optional, but can support your case)

Conclusion:

If you or someone in your family has lost access to Benazir Kafalat payments, don’t panic. You can still requalify—but it requires quick action. Complete the Dynamic Survey, update your data, and monitor your eligibility via the 8171 portal. While the process is more competitive now, it’s not impossible to return—just make sure you don’t delay.
