BISP 8171 September 2025: How to Check Payment Eligibility with PMT Score

The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP 8171) provides financial aid to deserving families across Pakistan. However, eligibility is determined through the Poverty Means Test (PMT) Score, which plays a crucial role in deciding whether a family qualifies for cash assistance. Many beneficiaries are confused about their PMT score and how it impacts their payment eligibility.

حکومت پاکستان نے بینظیر انکم سپورٹ پروگرام کے تحت شفافیت یقینی بنانے کے لیے گھرانوں کی غربت کے اسکور کو بنیاد بنایا ہے۔ اگر آپ کا اسکور مقررہ حد سے کم ہے تو آپ اہل تصور کیے جاتے ہیں اور آپ کو ماہانہ قسط ملتی ہے، بصورت دیگر آپ کا نام فہرست سے خارج کر دیا جاتا ہے۔ اسی وجہ سے یہ ضروری ہے کہ آپ باقاعدگی سے اپنے اسکور اور اہلیت کی جانچ کرتے رہیں۔

What is the PMT Score in BISP 8171?

The PMT score is calculated through the National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) survey. It records details about household income, property, family size, and living conditions. Based on this data, families are assigned a score:

• PMT below 32 → Eligible for BISP assistance

• PMT above 32 → Not eligible for payment

How to Check BISP 8171 Eligibility Using PMT Score

To find out whether you qualify for the September 2025 payment, you can check your PMT score and eligibility through:

1. Online Portal

Visit the official 8171 web portal and enter your CNIC number to check your status.

2. SMS Service

Send your CNIC number to 8171. You will receive a reply confirming whether your PMT score allows you to receive payments.

3. BISP Tehsil Office

Beneficiaries can also visit their nearest BISP Tehsil Office for score verification and complaint registration.

Why Your PMT Score Matters for BISP

The government uses the PMT system to ensure that only low-income families benefit from cash assistance. If your PMT score is too high, it indicates financial stability, and you may be excluded from the program.

What to Do If Declared Ineligible

If you are removed due to a high PMT score, you can:

• Reapply through the dynamic survey at your nearest BISP office.

• Update your household information (income changes, family members, etc.).

• Request a re-evaluation if your circumstances have changed.

Final Words

Checking your BISP 8171 payment eligibility using the PMT score is crucial for receiving timely assistance. As of September 2025, beneficiaries should verify their details regularly through the official portal or SMS service to avoid payment delays. Staying updated ensures that your family continues to receive the support it deserves.
