Benazir Taleemi Wazaif is an education support program run by the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP). It provides cash stipends every three months to children of active Kafalat beneficiaries who are enrolled in school from Primary to Higher Secondary level (Class 1 to 12).

The main purpose of this program is to help poor families pay for school related expenses like uniforms, books, copies, bags, and other study costs. It also helps reduce school dropout, especially among girls, which is why girls receive slightly higher stipend amounts.

Since the program started, BISP has spent billions of rupees on children’s education through this scheme. In 2026, the program has been expanded further with updated payment amounts and improved registration through BISP offices and a new mobile app system.

Only those families can apply whose mother is already a beneficiary of the Benazir Kafalat (BISP 8171) program. The child must be enrolled in a government school, college, or a registered private school.

Main eligibility conditions are:

• The mother must be an active BISP Kafalat beneficiary
• The child must have a NADRA issued B-Form
• The child must be admitted in a recognized school or college
• Child’s age must match the class level (details below)
• Child must maintain at least 70 percent school attendance every quarter

Age Limit for Each Education Level

The stipend amount depends on the child’s education level and gender. Girls get higher amounts to encourage their education. Payment is released every three months (quarterly), not monthly.

Latest reported stipend rates for 2026:

Bonus for girls: Every girl student who successfully completes primary education (Class 5) gets a one time bonus of Rs. 3,000 to encourage her to continue studies in secondary school.

Note: Final amounts are confirmed by BISP through official notifications. Rates may be updated by the government. Always confirm the current rate from BISP before assuming any figure.

Before visiting the BISP office, keep these documents ready. Missing any document may delay your registration.

• Original CNIC of the mother (BISP beneficiary)
• Child’s B-Form issued by NADRA
• School or college admission slip signed by the class teacher and head
• Father’s CNIC copy (if available)
• Mother’s active mobile SIM number
• School ID card of the child (if issued)

Registration is free of cost. Do not pay any agent or middleman. Follow these steps:

Registration Through Mobile App

BISP has also launched a Benazir Taleemi Wazaif mobile app in 2026 that allows mothers to register their children from home. You can download the official app from Google Play Store. Avoid fake apps from other sources because they may steal your data.

This is one of the most important conditions of the program. The child must attend school at least 70 percent of the days in every quarter. If attendance drops below this, the next quarterly payment may be stopped.

Schools share monthly attendance records with BISP. Parents should make sure the child goes to school regularly and the attendance is properly marked in the school register.

Once registered, you can easily check your payment status by these methods:

After confirmation, the stipend is paid through:

• HBL Konnect agents
• Bank Alfalah agents
• Designated BISP Campsite or Tehsil Office
• Biometric verification of the mother is required at the time of payment

The amount is always paid to the mother of the child, not to the father or anyone else. This rule is set to make sure money is used for the child’s education.

Sometimes the payment does not arrive on time due to a few common issues. One of the main reasons is low school attendance, especially if the child’s attendance falls below 70 percent. Payments can also be delayed if the mother’s CNIC is expired or not updated in the National Database and Registration Authority records. In some cases, there may be a mismatch between the child’s B-Form information and the school record submitted to Benazir Income Support Programme.

Another reason could be that the mother is no longer included in the active BISP Kafalat beneficiary list. Incorrect or outdated mobile numbers registered with BISP may also create communication and payment issues. Sometimes the delay happens simply because the school has not yet submitted the student’s attendance report to BISP

• Registration is completely free. BISP never charges any fee
• Do not share your CNIC or OTP with any stranger
• Only use the official 8171 SMS service and BISP website
• Keep your school admission slip safe
• Inform BISP if you change school or mobile number
• Mother must be present at the time of biometric verification

Benazir Taleemi Wazaif is a real chance for poor families to keep their children in school without worrying about expenses. The process is simple, the registration is free, and the stipend is paid directly to the mother every three months.

If your family is already in the Benazir Kafalat program and your children go to school, you should register them as soon as possible. Make sure attendance stays above 70 percent and your CNIC is updated. For the latest updates on stipend amount and payment schedule, always check the official 8171 portal or visit your nearest BISP Tehsil Office.
