The government has also reminded all new applicants to complete the dynamic survey from their nearest BISP office. If you haven’t done it yet, you might miss future payments.

Also, those who were declared ineligible in previous cycles should reapply. The new rules are a bit relaxed now, especially for widows, persons with disabilities, and low-income families.
