Good News for Thousands of Women Facing Biometric Problems!
The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) has announced a major relief for thousands of women who were unable to receive their payments due to fingerprint verification issues. This long-standing problem, which had caused frustration and delays for years, has finally been addressed through the launch of a new system called the NON-BVS (Non-Biometric Verification System).
This move will not only reduce unnecessary visits to NADRA and payment centers but also ensure that payments reach the right hands without unnecessary delays or stress.

Why Was Fingerprint Failure a Big Problem?
For years, BISP payments were only handed over after successful biometric (fingerprint) verification. This system, though introduced for transparency, became a hurdle for many:
- Elderly women with fading fingerprints.
- Labor-class women whose hands were damaged due to tough physical work.
- Women who updated their fingerprints at NADRA but still failed to verify at payment centers.
These women were caught in a loop unable to receive payments despite being eligible. As a result, many of them faced serious financial difficulties for months, sometimes even years.

BISP Launches Non-Biometric Verification System
To solve this problem, BISP has now launched the NON-BVS System, a non-biometric verification method to disburse payments. The main goal is to ensure that no deserving woman is left behind just because a machine couldn’t read her fingerprints.Initially introduced in some areas of South Punjab, the NON-BVS system is already showing success and will soon be rolled out across Pakistan.
How the BISP Non-Biometric Verification System System Works
The NON-BVS system replaces the biometric requirement with a manual identity verification process.
Step | Details |
1. Visit Office | The beneficiary must visit the nearest BISP Tehsil Office. |
2. Get Form | Ask for the NON-BVS Application Form. |
3. Fill & Attach | Complete the form and attach a copy of your CNIC. |
4. Bring Guarantor | A close relative (husband, son, or daughter) must come with you as a guarantor. |
