In a major relief effort this August 2025, the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has announced a double payment for eligible women bringing the total to Rs. 27,000. This special payout, aimed at covering pending disbursements or missed cycles from earlier months, is a significant step by the government to assist low-income households, especially women-led families. If you’re unsure whether you qualify or how to receive the full amount, this guide provides everything you need to know from eligibility to the collection process.
Why Rs. 27,000 Is Being Paid in August 2025
The double payment initiative comes as a result of either:
- Missed disbursements from previous months (such as May or June 2025),
- Clearance of pending verification or CNIC correction cases,
- Or reactivation of previously blocked beneficiaries who now meet eligibility criteria.
This Rs. 27,000 sum is essentially two monthly payments of Rs. 13,500 each, rolled into a single disbursement. It’s not a new installment, but a consolidated amount being issued to help women who missed earlier support due to system delays or biometric issues.
