In October 2025, the Government of Pakistan opened new registration opportunities for women previously disqualified from the Benazir Kafalat Program. If a woman lost eligibility due to an increased PMT (poverty score) or outdated information, this is her chance to rejoin. The BISP re-survey and registration process ensures that eligible women can correct their status and receive financial assistance. This initiative strengthens the Benazir Income Support Programme, making it more inclusive and giving women another opportunity to benefit from the program.
Why Some Women Were Disqualified
Many women lost eligibility due to PMT scores exceeding the threshold or changes in household finances. The PMT score measures poverty levels and is essential for BISP Kafalat eligibility. Other reasons for disqualification include providing incomplete information or outdated survey data. Recognizing these issues, the government allows affected women to participate in a new survey and registration. This ensures that only deserving women qualify for the program and receive BISP financial support.
