The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) is expected to release a special Eid payment in 2026 to support low-income families during the festive season. This additional assistance aims to help beneficiaries manage increased household expenses ahead of Eid celebrations.

The payment will be processed through the BISP 8171 Portal, allowing families to verify their eligibility and payment status using their CNIC.
