اگر آپ کے گھرانے نے اپنا پی ایس پی آر سروے مکمل کروا لیا تھا اور 8070 سے ایس ایم ایس موصول ہوا ہے کہ آپ کا پے آرڈر جاری کر دیا گیا ہے، تو اب سوال یہ ہے کہ آپ اسے کیسے وصول کر سکتے ہیں۔ جیسا کہ میں پہلے ہی بتا چکا ہوں، یہ پے آرڈر بذریعہ ڈاک آپ کے گھر بھیجے جا رہے ہیں۔ تاہم، کئی گھرانوں کو تاحال اپنا پے آرڈر موصول نہیں ہوا، جس کی وجہ سے وہ پریشانی کا شکار ہیں۔

اگر آپ بھی ان افراد میں شامل ہیں جنہیں ابھی تک پے آرڈر وصول نہیں ہوا، تو فوری طور پر اپنے یونین کونسل کے دفتر یا اپنے متعلقہ پٹواری سے رابطہ کریں۔ کیونکہ کئی ایسے علاقے ہیں جہاں پے آرڈر براہ راست پٹواری یا یونین کونسل دفاتر کے ذریعے فراہم کیے جا رہے ہیں۔ اس لیے وقت ضائع کیے بغیر اپنی قریبی یونین کونسل یا پٹواری سے رابطہ کر کے اپنے پے آرڈر کی مکمل معلومات حاصل کریں۔

9999 Ramadan Cash Grant Eligibility Criteria

9999 Ramzan PKR 10,000 Cash Grant Program Eligibility Criteria:

Apart from the federal Ramzan relief package, the Punjab government has introduced a separate financial aid program:

• Amount: PKR 10,000 per family
• Eligibility Check: Can be verified via SMS to 8070
• Registered Families: People who have completed their PSER survey are automatically considered.

If you have already registered under Punjab’s PSER survey, you can check your eligibility by sending your CNIC to 8070.

Not everyone qualifies for the relief package. The government has set specific eligibility requirements:

The First Method Is Via SMS

As the name of the method suggests, it allows beneficiaries to get their eligibility and payment details through SMS. This method is specially designed for those who are illiterate or do not have internet access. Under this method, all beneficiaries who want to get complete information regarding their eligibility can send an SMS to 8171 by typing their CNIC number from the mobile phone number registered in their name (which they provided at the time of registration).

After sending the SMS, a reply SMS will be received from the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) providing complete details of their eligibility and payment. Although this method is a little less effective than the other method, it still works and is especially helpful for those who do not have access to the internet.

The Second Method Is Through The 8171 Web Portal

The second method is more effective and more widely used than the first method. Under this method, all the eligible persons who want to get their eligibility and payment details use the official web portal of the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP). By visiting this portal, they enter their National Identity Card number, after which they are provided with their complete information.

If you also want to check your eligibility through this method, then first open the 8171 web portal on your mobile or computer. After opening the web portal, you will see two fields. Enter your CNIC card number in the first field, while in the second field, type the captcha code. After that, click on the submit button below. As soon as you press the button, your eligibility and payment details will appear on your screen. The special thing about this method is that it is not only more effective than the first method but also faster, through which you can get all your information sitting at home without wasting time.

Eligible Individuals:

1. Households registered under the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) with a Poverty Means Test (PMT) score of 30 or below.
2. Families who received free wheat flour (Atta) in 9999 Ramzan package.
3. Beneficiaries of the Nigahban Program 2025, who were previously given ration bags.
4. Families that have completed their Punjab Socio-Economic Registry (PSER) survey.

Ineligible Individuals:

• Government employees with high salaries
• Individuals who own large properties or businesses
• Those with incorrect or incomplete PSER survey information
• People who have not registered their SIM cards under their CNIC

Verification & Tracking of Application

Once you apply through SMS, your application will be processed based on the government database.

To check your application status:

1. Visit the online portal (Link to be provided by the government soon).
2. Enter your CNIC number to check if you are eligible.
3. Alternatively, send an SMS to 8070 or 9999 to receive an eligibility confirmation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Applying

1. Sending an incorrect CNIC number – Ensure your CNIC is valid and correctly entered.
2. Using a SIM card that is not registered in your name – Only personal SIMs can be used.
3. Multiple submissions – Sending multiple SMS entries does not increase your chances.
4. Incomplete registration in the PSER survey – Ensure all details are correctly updated.

Online Registration via the Punjab Portal

While the Punjab government has established over 5,000 registration centers for the PSER program, a special online portal has also been launched with the help of which people can complete their PSER survey from home. You can easily register yourself if you are unable to go to the office and register by visiting the official web portal of the Punjab government.

For online registration, first open the official web portal https://pser.punjab.gov.pk/ and then create your account there. On creating an account, log in, where PSER registration forms will be presented. Fill all the details related to the head of the family in this registration form and agree once after completing all the above information. Once the form is submitted, eligibility will be checked and if the individual qualifies, they will be placed under other government welfare schemes and relief packages such as Ramzan Packages.
