SIM CNIC BISP 8171 Verification 📝
How to Link Your SIM with CNIC for July 2025 BISP Payments
👉 If you want to receive your Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) payment in July 2025, you must complete SIM CNIC BISP verification before July 9, 2025.
Failing to do this means no payment, no 8171 SMS updates, and biometric failure at NADRA centers. Let’s break down why it matters, how to do it, and how to avoid problems.
📌 Why Link Your SIM with Your CNIC for BISP?
Linking your SIM to your CNIC is not some random rule. It’s your ticket to secure, fraud-free payments.
✅ Benefits:
Confirm your identity in the BISP database
Stop scammers from hijacking your SMS alerts
Get 8171 payment updates on time
Pass biometric verification without errors
Speed up payment processing
Bottom line: No linked SIM? No BISP cash.
🔎 The 8171 Verification Code – Why It Matters
All BISP updates come via official 8171 SMS.

Payment schedule
Biometric confirmation
Eligibility status
