The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) provides essential financial help to the most vulnerable families in Pakistan. Many people are unaware that this program is specifically designed for women from low-income households. The BISP 10500 payment is only available to women to help improve their living standards and provide better education for their children through the Benazir Taleemi Wazaif initiative.
Key Update: Only Women Can Register for the BISP Program
In a recent live session, Rubina Khalid clarified that men cannot register for the BISP 10500 payment with their own CNIC cards. Only women from eligible families can sign up for the Benazir Kafaalat Program. If you have a mother, sister, or wife with a valid CNIC, they can visit the nearest BISP Tehsil office to complete the NSER survey and register for the program.
Common Misconception
Despite the program being active for several years, many people still believe that men can register and receive payments under BISP. This is incorrect. The main goal of the BISP is to support poor women and their children so they can live better lives.

Opening BISP Sahulat Accounts for Easy Access
The State Bank of Pakistan has announced a new program to make it easier for BISP beneficiaries to access their payments. Soon, all BISP-registered women will be able to open BISP Sahulat Accounts. These accounts will allow women to withdraw money directly from their bank accounts at any time, making financial transactions more convenient.
Under this new program, 9.3 million eligible women will be able to open their accounts with local banks through a simple one-time visit. This initiative will greatly improve access to financial assistance for women in need.
Conclusion
The BISP 10500 payment is a crucial support system specifically designed for women from low-income families in Pakistan. Its primary goal is to uplift vulnerable women, improve their standard of living, and ensure that their children have access to better education through financial assistance. It’s important to understand that only women can register for this program, and men cannot receive payments under the BISP scheme.
With the government’s efforts to introduce BISP Sahulat Accounts, accessing these payments will become even more convenient for millions of women across the country. By fulfilling the eligibility criteria and registering through the appropriate channels, eligible women can receive this vital financial aid, helping them to secure a better future for themselves and their families.
