Pakistan’s Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has announced a special double payment for November 2025. Eligible and registered women will receive Rs 27,000 in one go — this includes the regular September payment (Rs 13,500) plus any missed payment from the previous cycle.
This initiative mainly supports women who missed their last payment due to biometric issues, survey delays, or verification problems. By combining both amounts, the government aims to help families cover urgent expenses like food, school fees, and medical bills.

| Payment Type | Amount | Beneficiary Condition |

| Standard Payment | Rs 13,500 | For all verified, eligible beneficiaries |
