What Is The 8171 Portal?

The 8171 Portal (8171.bisp.gov.pk) is the official website of the Government of Pakistan that connects low-income families with programs like BISP, Ehsaas Kafalat, Benazir Taleemi Wazaif, and Emergency Cash. Through this portal, you can:

• Check your eligibility.
• Get information about your payments.

Please note that the portal is currently undergoing an upgrade, which is why it is temporarily unavailable.
