Ramzan 2026 Double Installment Surprise
Ramzan 2026 Double Installment Surprise: BISP Women to Get Double Relief Before Ramzan 2026 – January–March Payment Plus PM Ramzan Package in One Installment
The Government of Pakistan has taken a major step to support low-income families ahead of Ramzan. It has been officially decided that regular beneficiaries of the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) will receive their January–March quarterly installment together with the Prime Minister’s Ramzan Relief Package payment.
This means eligible women will receive both amounts in the same payment cycle without submitting a separate application.
If you are a BISP beneficiary, here is everything you need to know in simple and clear language.
What Is the BISP 8171 Program 2026 New Announcement?
According to the latest decision:
- Regular BISP beneficiaries will receive their January to March quarterly payment
- Along with the Prime Minister Ramzan Relief Package amount
- Both payments will be issued together
The purpose is simple: to provide extra financial support before the holy month of Ramzan when household expenses increase.
Who Is Eligible?
You will qualify for this combined payment if:
- You are already registered as a regular BISP beneficiary
- Your verification and NSER record are active
- You are receiving quarterly financial assistance
⚠️ If you are not currently part of BISP, you will not automatically receive this Ramzan relief under this decision.
Do You Need to Apply for the Ramzan Package Separately?
No.
If you are an active BISP beneficiary, you do not need to apply again for the Prime Minister’s Ramzan Relief Package. The amount will be added automatically to your January–March installment.
However, if you are not registered under BISP and believe you are eligible, you should visit the nearest BISP office to check your eligibility status.
How Will You Receive the Payment?
The payment method will remain the same as the regular BISP system:
- Through designated payment centers
- Via biometric verification
- Through partner banks or payment camps (depending on your district)
Make sure to:
- Bring your original CNIC
- Complete biometric verification yourself
- Avoid giving money to any agent
How to Check Your Payment Status?
You can check your eligibility or payment status through:
- SMS your CNIC to 8171
- Visit the official BISP web portal
- Go to your nearest BISP Tehsil Office
Always rely only on official sources. Do not trust messages from unknown numbers.
Why Is the Government Giving Both Payments Together?
During Ramzan, expenses increase due to:
- Food and grocery purchases
- Utility bills
- Iftar and Sehri arrangements
By merging both payments, the government aims to:
- Provide timely relief
- Reduce multiple visits to payment centers
- Support families before Ramzan begins
Important Instructions for Beneficiaries
- Do not share your CNIC details with strangers
- Do not pay any fee for receiving your payment
- Report any deduction or fraud immediately
- Follow only official BISP announcements
Final Words
This decision is a major relief for thousands of deserving families across Pakistan. If you are already receiving support from the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), you will now receive extra financial assistance before Ramzan without any new registration process.
Stay updated through official channels, verify your eligibility through 8171, and collect your payment safely.
