Which are many beneficiaries of the Benazir Income Support Program have been worried due to the portal being down and they cannot check there payment status and many people are asking when it will be updated and how they can check their total payments in the meantime.

Let me clarify that 8171 Ehsaas and BISP web portal is currently being updated due to verification process under BISP, and it will take some time before it’s fully functional again. This update is critical because people were facing difficulties and confusion due to out-dated data being showed on the web portal.

Why 8171 Portal Not Working?

The main reason for the portal are not working is the ongoing data update and re-verification process under Benazir Income Support Program. The dynamic review results are being uploaded, and the updated list of beneficiaries is being finalized.

This time, BISP is introducing a re-certification process to ensure that only truly eligible families remain in the program. Unlike before, where once some-one was declared eligible, they would continue receiving payments indeterminately, now the data will be rechecked every 3 years.

This update contains data of 93 lakh (9.3 million) women who were previously part of the program, and new recipients are being added as well. The verification has been finished with the help of all relevant departments, and the entire database is being refreshed accordingly.

When 8171 Web Portal Updated?

The 8171 portal is usually updated along with the new payment cycle, which occurs every 3 months. The update typically takes place when:

A new batch of payments is ready
Data verification has been completed
The government issues a new policy or announcement
Eligibility criteria are revised

Expected Update Date for April 2025

As of April 2025, the latest reports suggest that the 8171 web portal will be updated after Eid-ul-Fitr. The expected update window is between April 20 and April 22, 2025.

Why the Delay?

Eid holidays have slowed down the verification and processing activities
New beneficiaries’ data is still being verified
The government is finalizing the upcoming payment cycle

A Positive Side to the Portal Being Down

While the downtime has caused inconvenience, there is also a benefit. Previously, many beneficiaries—especially illiterate individuals—used to rely on shopkeepers or mobile store agents to check their payments. This often led to misinformation and even fraud.

Now, with proper BISP camp sites and authorized representatives, you can visit designated centers to get help and check your payment status safely.

Final Words
