If you want to receive your PKR 13,500 Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) payment in August 2025, your 8171 NADRA profile must be accurate and up to date. Thousands of eligible families miss out on payments every quarter simply because their personal details—like marital status, family data, or poverty score—are outdated.
This guide explains what the BISP NADRA profile is, why it matters in August 2025, how to check your status, and how to fix common issues that may block your payment.
What Is the 8171 BISP NADRA Profile?
Your BISP NADRA profile is the official record that connects your CNIC and household data—stored by NADRA—with the BISP system. It includes your:
CNIC number
Marital status
Family members
Household income
Disability (if any)
BISP uses this information to calculate your PMT (Poverty Means Test) score, which decides whether you qualify for financial aid.
Why It Matters in August 2025
The next round of BISP payments is scheduled for August 2025, and your eligibility depends on the accuracy of your profile. Even minor errors—like showing an unmarried status while you’re married—can lead to payment delays or disqualification.
Key Changes for August 2025:
Widows can qualify with a PMT score up to 35
Disabled individuals are eligible with scores up to 37
Others must stay below the general PMT threshold of 32
How to Check Your 8171 NADRA Profile
You can verify your status using two easy methods:
1. Via SMS
Open your messaging app

Send it to 8171
You’ll receive a reply confirming your eligibility or asking you to visit a registration center
2. Via 8171 Web Portal
