Benazir Kafalat Program New Payments Start | Second Phase 2025. The Benazir Kafalat Program 2025 continues to support Pakistan’s deserving women through regular financial assistance. As part of the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), the government has now started the second phase of payments for the year 2025, covering the third quarterly installment (July – September).
Benazir Kafalat Program 2025 – Second Phase Begins
BISP has officially started the second phase of Kafalat payments across more than 55 districts in Pakistan. Women registered under the program can now collect their new installment once they receive a confirmation message from 8171.
This phase comes right after the completion of the first round, where over 80 percent of eligible women successfully received payments. The phased distribution system ensures smooth transactions, transparency, and minimal crowding at centers.
Transparent and Phased Payment System
To prevent mismanagement, BISP follows a district-wise phased schedule.
- In the first phase, beneficiaries from selected areas already received their funds.
- The second phase, launched in October 2025, extends the process to additional regions across Sindh, Balochistan, Punjab, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
This transparent structure helps both staff and beneficiaries avoid long queues and ensures that each woman receives her full amount directly.
