8171 Double Payment Update
Under the 8171 Double Payment Update, the Government of Pakistan has announced a special installment of Rs. 28,000 for eligible families in February 2026. This payment is for those women who did not receive previous installment due to biometric or technical issues. Now, the two installments will be paid together for them, so that they can meet their basic expenses.
The government has clarified that only those people who are already registered under BISP 8171, who have completed the Dynamic Survey 2026, and who have not faced any problems in re-verification will be able to get this amount. In addition, newly verified people who have been declared eligible in 2026, may also be eligible for this double payment.
Why Is BISP Offering Double Payment in February?
Due to several technical issues and delays in biometric verification thousands of eligible families did not receive their Rs. 14,500 payment new installment and previous installment 13500. To compensate, the government approved a double payment of Rs. 28,000, covering both the missed and current installments.
This update is a major step toward supporting the country’s most vulnerable population during inflation.
