BISP Biometric Failure Solution – August 2025 Update

Thousands of women are facing biometric issues in collecting their BISP 8171 payments in August 2025. But the good news is—a new BISP biometric failure solution has been introduced by the government. Whether your thumbprint is not matching or you’ve been blocked due to repeated failure, this guide will help you get your Rs. 13,500 payment without stress.

Why BISP Biometric Verification Fails in 2025

Biometric failures in the BISP 8171 program happen due to several reasons:

• Worn-out or damaged fingerprints (especially in older women)

• Faulty biometric machines at payment centers

• Network or system errors during verification

• Mismatch between CNIC data and NADRA records

These issues delay the payment process and create frustration among thousands of eligible families.

New BISP Biometric Failure Solution Introduced in August 2025

In August 2025, BISP has launched an alternate biometric verification system. Beneficiaries who fail biometric verification at ATMs or retailers can now:

• Visit the nearest NADRA center for advanced fingerprint verification

• Submit a manual verification request through the BISP Tehsil Office

• Receive payments via alternate authorized family members in some cases

This biometric failure solution ensures that no eligible person is denied their rightful Rs. 13,500 cash aid.

Step-by-Step Process to Resolve BISP Biometric Failure

Here is how to fix the biometric issue step by step:

1. Visit your nearest NADRA Registration Center

2. Request for “Biometric Re-verification for BISP”

3. NADRA will scan your fingerprints using high-sensitivity devices

4. Collect the receipt/report from NADRA

5. Go to the BISP Tehsil Office and submit the report

6. After approval, collect your payment from your assigned retailer or ATM

 Note: Make sure to bring your original CNIC and BISP card/message proof.
