Check your BISP eligibility

How this 8171 check works

BISP's eligibility data can only be read on its own portal, 8171.bisp.gov.pk, which is protected by a picture code (CAPTCHA). Haqdaar does not copy or store BISP data. Instead, this page makes the official check easier:

1. You type your 13-digit CNIC once. We check the format on your phone (it must be 13 digits and start with 1 to 7).
2. We copy it, and open the official 8171 portal beside this page.
3. You paste the CNIC, type the picture code and press search on BISP's site.
4. You come back and tap what the result said. We show the exact next step for your answer.

Your CNIC never leaves your phone. It is not sent to our server and is not saved.

What you need for the 8171 check

• The 13-digit CNIC number of the woman of the household (the person who would receive the payment)
• A phone or computer with internet, or any mobile phone for the SMS method
• Two minutes

Check by SMS instead

No internet? Send your 13-digit CNIC number without dashes to 8171 from any phone. On a mobile, the "SMS to 8171" button above fills in the message for you. The reply comes only from 8171. Ignore replies from any other number.

Understanding your result

• Eligible: your household qualifies for Benazir Kafaalat (currently Rs 14,500 per quarter). Read how the payment reaches your digital wallet.
• Not eligible: your household's PMT score is above the cut-off of 32 (37 with a disabled member). If your situation has changed, ask for a re-survey.
• No record / survey not done: complete the free NSER dynamic survey at your BISP tehsil office.
• Visit office: take your CNIC and your children's B-Forms to the tehsil office for verification.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the official BISP 8171 website?

No. Haqdaar is an independent guide. This page opens the official portal, 8171.bisp.gov.pk, where BISP shows your result.

Why can't Haqdaar show my result directly on this page?

BISP does not offer a public API, and its portal requires you to solve a picture code yourself. Showing BISP's data on another site would also mean sending your CNIC to a third party, which we do not do.

Is the 8171 check free?

Yes. The online check is free. Sending an SMS to 8171 may cost a normal SMS charge on some networks.

Which CNIC should I use for the 8171 check?

Use the CNIC of the woman of the household, because Benazir Kafaalat is paid to an ever-married woman with a valid CNIC.

What does "Visit office" mean on 8171?

BISP needs to verify or update your household data. Take your original CNIC and your children's B-Forms to the BISP tehsil office.
