Because BISP has made the decision to add 1.3 million deserving women to the Kafalat program. To this effect, it has been observed that the people are being misinformed in one way or another, but the reality is that BISP has made a decision to incorporate these women following an open scrutiny.
Here, in this article, I shall inform you completely in detail regarding which 1.3 million women are presently decided to include in the scheme. Together with this, I shall tell you completely in detail regarding what is considered while choosing the eligibility. Besides this, I shall give you complete details regarding how you can check your eligibility from your home within the same article. Therefore if you want to receive full information, then you need to read this article till the end so that you can receive full information.
Which Women Are Being Included In The Program?
As I stated at the start of the article, BISP has made a decision to bring 1.3 million more women into the Kafalat Program. In this context, I am going to give you full information about which women are being brought into this program and from when they will be able to receive financial help. First of all let me inform, those women who had already done their registration long ago and whose status on the 8171 web portal was “Under surveillance” have now been decided to be included in the program.
As regards receiving help, as per the latest news from BISP, these women will be covered under the program prior to the January-March disbursement being announced, upon which they will also be able to receive financial help.
How Is Eligibility For The Kafalat Program Being Determined?
Most women think that as soon as they have their survey done and their PMT is less than 32, they are part of the Kafalat program, but let me clarify for such women that this is not true. Not only is the PMT score considered for inclusion in the program, but BISP also performs verification from different institutions such as NADRA, FBR, Immigration Department, Excise and Taxation Department, and Land Records Department, etc.
Actually, it is only after verification from all these institutions that it is determined whether the concerned woman is eligible for the program or not. The objective of this check is to examine if the lady does not own any type of vehicle, land, etc., in her name, or she has ever traveled abroad. Just like that, it is also required to examine if the woman or her husband is a government servant.
And once BISP verifies from all these institutions and the women are eligible, then they are enrolled into the Kafalat Program. That is, if a woman is eligible on all parameters and verified by all the concerned institutions, then she is enrolled into the program so that she can avail the benefit of financial assistance.
How To Check Eligibility At Home
Therefore, if you are also one of those women who had already done their registration and their status was appearing as “Under Surveillance” on the 8171 web portal, then you might have also been covered under the program. Maintaining this in view, I am sharing a full process to enable such women to verify their eligibility from home so that they may come to know whether they have become part of the program or not.
The way to verify your eligibility from home is extremely simple. For that purpose, open the 8171 web portal from your phone or laptop first of all. The moment the portal is opened, fill in your identity card number in the spaces provided there, then fill in the captcha code displayed on the screen, and lastly click on the “Find Out” button. Then, the full details about your eligibility will be displayed on your screen, and hence you will be able to find out about your eligibility status from home.
