The registration process for the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) is underway, with many new applicants signing up but not receiving immediate responses from the 8171 helpline. The delay has a specific reason that is explained here, providing beneficiaries with clarity on why waiting is necessary and what they can expect from the process.
Importance of NSER Survey in BISP Registration
The National Socio-Economic Registry (NSER) survey registration is conducted at BISP Tehsil offices, in collaboration with NADRA’s verified data. This survey is essential for determining eligibility. However, several factors may prevent a woman from receiving support under the Ehsaas 8171 program immediately.
Is Waiting After Registration Normal?
After a woman registers for the BISP program, she receives a slip for verification purposes and is advised to wait for confirmation from 8171. Although the initial registration is successful, beneficiaries must wait due to BISP’s limited capacity, which restricts the immediate addition of new participants.

| Verification Process | Conducted through NADRA’s verified data |
| Slip for Verification | Provided post-registration for record-keeping |

Checking BISP Balance with NSER Survey Data
To check your BISP balance after registration:
- Send your ID card number to 8171.
- Wait briefly for the balance check process.
- Receive a confirmation message with your balance status.
This system allows beneficiaries to stay updated on their application status without needing to visit offices.
Who Qualifies for BISP 8171 Program?
The BISP program has strict eligibility criteria to ensure aid reaches those most in need. Eligibility requirements include:
- Pakistani nationality.
- Minimum age of 18.
- A valid ID card (mandatory for female applicants).
- Women who are widowed, divorced, or lack male family support.
- Families with disabled members.
- Poverty score below 32.
These guidelines prioritize support for individuals and families experiencing severe financial hardship.
Conclusion
Although waiting after the NSER survey can be frustrating, it is a standard BISP process designed to ensure accurate verification and eligibility checks. This waiting period enables BISP to prioritize applicants according to their needs and resource availability. By understanding these steps, beneficiaries can anticipate the process, knowing that they will receive an 8171 message confirming their eligibility once all data has been thoroughly reviewed.
