If you are part of the BISP 8171 program but haven’t received any payment message on your phone, don’t worry—you’re not alone. Many poor families in Pakistan are facing the same problem. These messages are very important because they tell you:
- If you are eligible
- When your Rs. 13,500 or Rs. 14,500 payment is ready
- If you need to go for a new survey
- If there’s a problem with your application

Why Are 8171 SMS Alerts So Important?
The 8171 number is used by the Government of Pakistan and BISP (Benazir Income Support Programme) to:
- Confirm your eligibility
- Inform you about new payments
- Ask you for re-surveys or verification
- Update your registration status
If your number is wrong, inactive, or not in the system, you won’t get any message—even if you qualify.
Why You’re Not Getting SMS from 8171 – Common Reasons
Here are the most common reasons why 8171 messages don’t come to your phone:
| Reason | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Old or incorrect mobile number | You gave a number that is now changed or wrong |
| SIM not registered on CNIC | The SIM must be in your own name (CNIC) |
| Mistake during registration | Mobile number was typed wrongly in the form |
| Inactive SIM | SIM is switched off for too long or not in use |
| Changed phone number | You got a new number but didn’t update it at BISP |
How to Fix This Problem and Start Receiving 8171 SMS
Follow these easy steps to update your mobile number and start receiving messages again:
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| Step 1 | Go to your nearest BISP Tehsil Office |
| Step 2 | Take your original CNIC |
| Step 3 | Tell the officer you want to update your mobile number |
| Step 4 | Make sure your new SIM is registered on your CNIC |
| Step 5 | Submit the form and get confirmation |
| Step 6 | Wait 3 to 5 working days for the messages to start again |

What If You Changed Your Mobile Number More Than Once?
If you change your number, you must update it every time at the BISP office. Just putting a new SIM in your phone is not enough—the number in BISP records must be updated.
Latest August 2025 BISP Update:
BISP Phase 2 payments of Rs. 13,500 have started in selected districts. If your number is not updated, you might miss your turn to collect the payment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Will I lose my payment if I didn’t receive the 8171 SMS?
➡️ No, but you won’t know when or where to collect it unless you check manually.
Q2: How can I check if my SIM is under my CNIC?
➡️ Dial *667# from your SIM. It will show whose name it is registered on.
Q3: I lost my SIM. What should I do?
➡️ Buy a new SIM on your CNIC and go to BISP office to update the number.
Why It’s Urgent to Update Your Mobile Number
Since August 2025, BISP has become stricter. If your SIM is not active or not registered on your CNIC:
- You may miss your Rs. 13,500 payment
- You may not get alerts about surveys or re-verification
- You may be marked as ineligible without knowing
Final Advice
If you haven’t received any message from 8171, don’t wait. Go to your nearest BISP Tehsil Office with your CNIC and update your mobile number. Make sure your SIM is:
- Active
- Registered on your own CNIC
- Correctly listed in BISP records
