The Benazir Taleemi Wazaif program has entered a new phase for April 2026, focusing on increased stipends and a strict 70% attendance requirement. If you are a BISP Kafaalat beneficiary, your children (aged 4–22) are eligible for these additional educational grants.
Here is the complete guide to checking your status and completing the 2026 registration.
BISP Taleemi Wazaif Stipend Rates 2026 (Quarterly)
Stipends are paid every three months. Girls receive a higher amount to encourage female literacy, and a special Rs. 3,000 Graduation Bonus is awarded to girls who complete primary school (Class 5).
| Education Level | Boys (Rs.) | Girls (Rs.) |
| Primary (Class 1–5) | 2,500 | 3,000 |
| Secondary (Class 6–10) | 3,500 | 4,000 |
| Higher Secondary (Class 11–12) | 4,500 | 5,000 |
How to Check Status Online (CNIC)
There are two primary ways to check if your child’s stipend is ready:
- 8171 Web Portal: Visit 8171.bisp.gov.pk. Enter the mother’s 13-digit CNIC and the captcha code. The result will show the “Taleemi Wazaif” balance alongside the Kafaalat payment.
- SMS Service: Send the mother’s 13-digit CNIC to 8171. You will receive an automated reply confirming the eligibility of enrolled children.
- Mobile App: You can download the Benazir Taleemi Wazaif App from the Google Play Store to track your children’s attendance and payment history directly.
Complete Registration Guide for 2026
While status checks are online, the initial registration must be done in person to verify school enrollment.
- Step 1: The mother must visit the nearest BISP Tehsil Office with her original CNIC and the children’s NADRA B-Forms.
- Step 2: Obtain an Enrollment Slip from the BISP counter.
- Step 3: Take the slip to your child’s school. The Principal must fill in the EMIS Code, sign, and stamp it.
- Step 4: Submit the stamped slip back to the BISP office.
- Step 5: Once verified, you will receive a confirmation SMS. Payments usually begin in the next quarterly cycle.
Important Rules for 2026
- 70% Attendance: This is a “Conditional Cash Transfer.” If your child’s school attendance drops below 70% in any month, the stipend for that quarter will be automatically blocked.+1
- Mother’s Status: The student’s mother must be an active beneficiary of the Benazir Kafaalat program. If the mother is disqualified, the children’s stipends will also stop.
- Age Limits: * Primary: 4–12 years
