The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) has launched Phase 3 of its 2025 payment cycle, beginning in June 2025. This phase prioritizes rural women through mobile van services and tehsil-level BISP offices, making the verification and payment process more accessible and transparent. Each eligible beneficiary will receive Rs. 13,500 under the BISP 8171 scheme.
Mobile Van Verification for Rural Women
Rural women face challenges such as long travel distances, limited awareness, and digital illiteracy. To address these, BISP has deployed mobile verification vans during Phase 3. These vans help:
- Conduct the NSER survey
- Verify necessary documents
- Provide real-time payment status
This doorstep service enables fast, secure, and efficient verification for eligible women in remote areas.

Verification Through Mobile Vans
BISP’s mobile vans, active across rural Pakistan, are equipped with:
- Biometric devices

- Trained verification staff
Each van follows a pre-announced route, broadcasted via radio, mosques, and community centers. Women should be ready with their documents when the van arrives.
Benefits of Mobile Vans:
- Bring verification to remote areas
- Save time and travel costs
- Offer instant document checks
- Use local languages for ease of understanding
A confirmation SMS from 8171 will be sent upon successful verification.
Why Urban Women Are Also Included
Urban low-income families also face issues like long queues and limited support. BISP now includes urban outreach, offering:
- Expanded tehsil-level office capacity
- Faster digital processing
This ensures fair access for both rural and urban populations.
Verification via Tehsil-Level BISP Offices
Women who missed the mobile van can visit their nearest BISP office.
- Carry required documents (see below)
- Request NSER survey assistance
- Submit biometrics and household data
- Wait for confirmation SMS from 8171
This process usually takes 3–7 working days.
Documents Required for NSER Verification
- Original CNIC and registered mobile number
- NADRA Family Certificate and children’s B-Form
- Latest utility bills or income proof
- Previous BISP payment slip (if any)
Additional documents:
- Widows: Husband’s death certificate
- Divorced women: Divorce certificate
- Disabled persons: Valid disability certificate
Ensure documents are accurate to avoid delays.
Phase 3 Payment Methods
Only verified beneficiaries can collect payments using:
- Bank ATMs (with biometric verification)
- Authorized BISP Agents (fingerprint required)
- Tehsil BISP Offices
- Local Payment Camps (especially in remote areas)
Always wait for the 8171 confirmation SMS before visiting any payment center.
Mobile Number Registration is Crucial
Women must ensure their mobile number is registered under their own CNIC. This number is used to:
- Send payment alerts
- Confirm survey and eligibility updates
- Provide notifications on delays or issues
Visit a nearby mobile franchise to update this if needed.
If You Don’t Complete Verification
Failure to complete the NSER verification will result in:
- Immediate payment halt
- Removal from BISP beneficiary list
- Loss of other benefits like education stipends and utility subsidies
Verification is mandatory to continue receiving BISP benefits.
Final Words
BISP Phase 3 represents a major step in empowering rural and low-income women by simplifying access through mobile vans and local offices. Those who haven’t verified their data should act now to avoid losing their Rs. 13,500 payment.
