BISP Home Survey 2025 Open Again – How to Update Your Family Data

BISP Reopens Household Survey for Millions of Families

The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) has officially reopened the Home Survey 2025, giving families across Pakistan another opportunity to update or correct their household information.
This update, launched in November 2025, aims to include new deserving families and remove outdated or incorrect records from the system.

If you missed the last survey or your data (like income, CNIC, or family members) has changed, this is your chance to ensure you remain eligible for the Benazir Kafalat, Taleemi Wazaif, and other BISP assistance programs.

Why the BISP Home Survey Is Open Again

According to a statement from Dr. Muhammad Amjad Saqib, Chairperson of BISP, the reopening of the survey was necessary because:

Thousands of families missed the last verification cycle.
Household structures and incomes have changed since 2022.
The new Smart Verification 2025 system integrates NADRA and BISP databases for more accurate targeting.
Families who were mistakenly marked as “ineligible” can now re-enter the system through the home survey.

“No family should be left out due to technical or data errors. This new survey will ensure inclusivity and fairness,” said Dr. Amjad during the November 2025 press briefing in Islamabad.

Who Needs to Update Family Data

You should update your data if:

You were declared ineligible on the 8171 portal.
You have a new child or family member added to your CNIC record.
You’ve moved to a new address or city.
You’ve changed your phone number or CNIC details.
Your household income or employment status has changed.

Even if you are currently receiving benefits, updating your record keeps your data active and verified for future payments.

How to Update Your Family Data in BISP Home Survey 2025

Here’s the official and correct method to update your household record:

✅ Step 1: Visit the Nearest BISP Office

Go to your Tehsil-level BISP Center or the official BISP Home Survey Camp in your area.
Check for the nearest location through the official BISP website: https://bisp.gov.pk.

✅ Step 2: Bring Required Documents

Carry the following:

Original CNIC of head of family (male/female)
B-Forms of all children
Electricity or gas bill (as proof of residence)
Mobile number registered on CNIC

✅ Step 3: Complete Digital Interview

A BISP officer will visit your home or interview you at the center.
You’ll answer questions about:

Family size
Income and employment status
Type of residence
Educational status of children

This process takes 10–15 minutes and is done digitally using a tablet-based Smart Survey app.

✅ Step 4: Verification via NADRA Smart System

Your CNIC and family record will be automatically cross-checked with the NADRA Smart Database to confirm authenticity.

✅ Step 5: Receive Confirmation SMS

Once verified, you’ll receive an official SMS from 8171 confirming successful data submission and your new eligibility status.

Important Note: Survey Is Free of Cost

⚠️ Warning: Do not pay any agent or individual to “register” or “speed up” your process.
The survey is completely free and managed directly by BISP staff.

All official staff wear BISP-issued badges and carry digital devices for recording your information securely.
