In a big relief for deserving families across Pakistan, the government has officially started the Rs.12,500 installment under the Benazir Taleemi Wazifa 2025. This special aid is for children enrolled in schools whose families are already part of the Benazir Kafalat Program. If you’re a new registrant, this is your chance to benefit from the financial support meant to keep children in school.
This year’s installment is larger than before, reflecting the government’s strong commitment to education. The aim? To ensure every child, no matter their background, gets access to learning without being forced to drop out due to poverty.
Why Some Families Stopped Receiving Payments
Several families were surprised to see their payments halted recently. If your installment didn’t arrive, there could be a few simple reasons behind it:
-
Expired CNIC: Your National Identity Card might have expired, which automatically blocks payment.
-
School Change Not Updated: If your child moved to a new school and the details weren’t updated in the system, your payment will stop.
-
Low School Attendance: Children must have at least 70% attendance to stay eligible for the program.
If any of these apply to you, don’t worry — you can easily restore your benefits.
How to Restart Your Stopped Payment
Fixing a stopped payment isn’t difficult. Here’s what you need to do:
-
Renew Your CNIC: Head over to your nearest NADRA office and update your CNIC.
-
Verify School Information: Visit your child’s former school to confirm their transfer, then update the new details at the nearest BISP Tehsil office.
-
Ensure Regular Attendance: Make sure your child attends school regularly — attendance is key to getting continued payments.
