8171

The 8171 portal is an official digital platform introduced by the Government of Pakistan to help low-income families check their eligibility and registration status for financial aid under social welfare schemes like Ehsaas and Benazir Income Support Program (BISP). Citizens can send their CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) number via SMS to 8171 to verify whether they qualify for cash assistance. The initiative aims to improve transparency, streamline the application process, and ensure that support reaches the most deserving households across the country.
