8171 Double Payment Update
Under the 8171 Double Payment Update, the Government of Pakistan has announced a special installment of Rs. 27,000 for eligible families in August 2025. This payment is for those women who did not receive the April-June 2025 installment due to biometric or technical issues. Now, the two installments will be paid together for them, so that they can meet their basic expenses.
The government has clarified that only those people who are already registered under BISP 8171, who have completed the Dynamic Survey 2025, and who have not faced any problems in re-verification will be able to get this amount. In addition, newly verified people who have been declared eligible before July 31, 2025, may also be eligible for this double payment.
To get the amount, you can SMS your CNIC number to 8171 or check it on the BISP website. Payment can be made through HBL Konnect, Bank Alfalah Biometric Agents, BISP campsites or mobile vans. In case of any deduction or issue, immediately contact BISP helpline 0800-26477.
Why Is BISP Offering Double Payment in August?
Due to several technical issues and delays in biometric verification during the April–June 2025 cycle, thousands of eligible families did not receive their Rs. 13,500 payment. To compensate, the government approved a double payment of Rs. 27,000, covering both the missed and current installments.
This update is a major step toward supporting the country’s most vulnerable population during inflation.
