BISP 8171 July 2025
BISP 8171 is facing eligibility blocks due to one unexpected issue — their marital status showing as “Unmarried” in the system. If you’re one of them, don’t worry. This article will guide you on how to fix the “Unmarried” CNIC error and get your Rs. 13,500 Benazir Kafalat payment quickly.
🔍 Why Is the “Unmarried” Status a Problem?
In BISP’s eligibility system, women registered as “Unmarried” are often excluded from the Kafalat stipend unless they meet special criteria. The system prioritizes widows, divorced women, and married low-income mothers.
If your CNIC or NSER data wrongly lists you as unmarried, the system may automatically reject or block your payment, even if you were eligible before.
📲 How to Check Your Current Marital Status in the BISP System
