8171 BISP Quarterly Payment 2025 temporarily stopped between July and October 2025 due to system checks and technical issues. If you are a beneficiary, here’s the latest update on payment resumption, eligibility, and how to check your Rs. 13,500 payment status online.
Why Were 8171 Payments Delayed?
BISP temporarily paused disbursements to ensure smooth and error-free payments. Major reasons include:
- Bank & Payment Disruptions – Some banks and partner platforms faced downtime.
- Data Verification – BISP updated records to remove duplicate or ineligible beneficiaries.
- Biometric Errors – Fingerprint issues (especially for elderly or laborers) caused transaction failures.
- CNIC Mismatches – Outdated or damaged CNICs led to verification problems.

According to official communication, BISP 8171 payments are expected to restart in the last week of October 2025. Beneficiaries will receive their quarterly amount of Rs. 13,500 through authorized shops and retail outlets (instead of temporary camps).
