Good news might be coming for poor families in Pakistan! The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) is thinking about making a new payment of Rs.13,500 in April 2025. This is more than the last payment of Rs.10,500. But remember, this is not final yet. The people in charge are still talking and deciding what to do.
Many families are waiting to know if they will get this money. To get it, you must be very poor, and your PMT score (a number that shows how poor you are) must be 32 or less. If your score is more than 32, you may not get the payment. Some people had a low score before, but now their score has gone up, so BISP is checking again.
In this blog, we will tell you:
- Who can get Rs.13,500
- What is the PMT score?
- How to check if you will get the money
- When the final decision will come
- How you can receive the payment

🟢 What Is the BISP Rs13500 Installment?
In January 2025, BISP gave Rs10,500, which was later increased to Rs13,500. This helped many poor families with food, bills, and school needs. Now, for April 2025, the same amount is being discussed again.
But a final decision will be made on Monday, during an important meeting.
📅 Is Rs13,500 Final Yet?
No, as of 3 April 2025, there is no final decision about the Rs 13,500 installment.
People are waiting and hoping that they will get this money soon. The government wants to make sure that only needy and poor families get this money.
📊 PMT Score: What Is It?
PMT means Proxy Means Test. This score helps BISP find out how poor a family is.
Here’s what you need to know:
- If your PMT score is 32 or less, you can get money from BISP.
- If your PMT score is more than 32, you might not get the payment anymore.
Why is this important?
Some families were getting money before, but their PMT score increased after a new Dynamic Survey. No, the government is thinking:
- Should these families get one last payment of Rs 13,500?
- Or should they be removed from the BISP program?
This decision will also be made in the Monday meeting.
