In July 2025, the Government of Pakistan has officially started distributing financial aid under the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP). This includes two key components: the Rs. 13,500 quarterly Kafalat payment for eligible mothers, and the Benazir Taleemi Wazaif, which provides stipends between Rs. 2,500 and Rs. 5,000 for school-going children. These programs aim to reduce financial stress for low-income families while encouraging parents to keep their children in school. The Taleemi Wazaif ensures that families prioritizing education receive ongoing support based on attendance and academic participation. Here is a complete overview of who qualifies, how much is paid, and how to receive it.
Taleemi Wazaif Stipend Breakdown
The Taleemi Wazaif program pays different stipend amounts based on the child’s education level and gender. Below is the payment structure for July 2025:
| Education Level | Age Range | Boys (PKR) | Girls (PKR) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary (Class 1–5) | 4–12 years | 2,500 | 3,000 |
| Secondary (Class 6–10) | 8–18 years | 3,500 | 4,000 |
| Higher Secondary | 13–22 years | 4,500 | 5,000 |
Children who are eligible but missed earlier payments may receive a larger lump sum this month.
Eligibility Criteria for Taleemi Wazaif
To qualify for Taleemi Wazaif in July 2025, the following conditions must be met:
- The child must be currently enrolled in a government or registered private school.
- The child’s attendance must be at least 70% in the last quarter.
- The child should have a valid B-Form (issued by NADRA).
- The child’s mother must be an active BISP Kafalat beneficiary.
These requirements ensure that financial assistance goes to families actively investing in their children’s education.
Combined Financial Support with Rs. 13,500 Kafalat
Alongside the educational stipend, mothers who are enrolled in the BISP Kafalat program will also receive their quarterly installment of Rs. 13,500. This combined support helps low-income households manage essential costs like food, utilities, and medicines, while also keeping their children in school. Depending on the number of children in a family, the total amount received this month could exceed Rs. 20,000.
How to Check Eligibility and Payment Status
You can easily check your eligibility for both Taleemi Wazaif and Kafalat through one of the following methods:
1. SMS Method
Send the mother’s 13-digit CNIC number (without dashes) via SMS to 8171. You will receive a reply with your payment status: approved, under verification, or blocked.
2. Online Portal
Visit the official BISP website at
👉 8171.bisp.gov.pk
Enter your CNIC to check the current payment and stipend status.
3. BISP Tehsil Office
If you’re unable to get results via SMS or online, visit your nearest BISP office. Bring the original mother’s CNIC, child’s B-Form, and a school attendance certificate if necessary.
Why School Attendance Is Critical
A key requirement for receiving Taleemi Wazaif is that your child must maintain at least 70% school attendance. The BISP system collects data from schools and reviews attendance before approving or continuing payments.
If a child’s attendance falls below the required level, the payment may be temporarily paused or permanently stopped. Parents are advised to stay in regular contact with schools and ensure accurate attendance is recorded.
Payment Distribution Channels
Once your payment is confirmed, you can receive it through several official channels:
- BISP payment camps in rural or hard-to-reach areas
- BISP Tehsil and District Offices
- Authorized HBL Konnect agents or retail partners
At the time of collection, the mother must be present with her original CNIC for biometric verification. Never hand over your CNIC or verification slip to strangers to avoid fraud or payment misuse.

Common Issues and Their Solutions
If you’re eligible but have not received the payment, here are common problems and how to resolve them:
- Unlinked B-Form: Visit your local NADRA office and ensure your child’s B-Form is digitally linked with the mother’s CNIC.
- Low Attendance: Request a certified attendance report from your child’s school and submit it to the BISP office.
- Blocked Payment Status: Visit the BISP office and ask for a re-verification of your documents.
- No SMS Response: Make sure your SIM card is registered under the mother’s CNIC and has sufficient balance to send the SMS.
Tips to Ensure Smooth Payment
- Keep all your documents updated in the BISP system.
- Maintain regular school attendance and get reports each quarter.
- Use only the official portal (8171.bisp.gov.pk) or authorized SMS service for updates.
- Never pay anyone to “unlock” or “speed up” your payment. The process is free.
