BISP 13500 May 2025 Payment Delayed – Reasons & New Distribution Schedule

For millions of low-income families in Pakistan, the BISP 13500 May 2025 payment represents a critical source of financial support. However, this month, many beneficiaries were left confused and worried when their payments didn’t arrive on time. The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has now officially confirmed the delay and explained the reasons behind it.

If you’re one of the many waiting for your payment, here’s what you need to know about the delay, the new payment dates, and how to check your status.

Why Was the BISP May 2025 Payment Delayed?

According to the BISP administration, the delay in disbursing Rs. 13,500 for May 2025 is due to several national and regional challenges:

  • Political instability causing administrative hold-ups

  • Security concerns in sensitive districts

  • Logistical issues due to public holidays (Saturday and Sunday closures)

  • Limited bank operations in some regions

These unexpected issues disrupted the smooth flow of payments, especially in areas where ground-level distribution and verification processes were affected.

New Schedule for BISP May 2025 Payment

To manage the situation better and ensure fairness, BISP has released a revised payment schedule.

  • Phase 1 Districts: Payments were completed earlier in May in stable areas.

  • Phase 2 Districts: Payments will resume from June 2025 for regions facing earlier disruptions.

  • Pending Phase 1 Payments: In districts where the first payment round was incomplete, distribution will restart from May 13, 2025.

If you haven’t received your payment yet, your district likely falls into the second or pending category.

Final Thoughts

While the BISP 13500 May 2025 payment delay is frustrating, it is a result of broader challenges beyond the control of beneficiaries. The government has acknowledged the delay and is actively taking steps to ensure timely disbursement going forward.

If your district is in Phase 2, expect your funds to be disbursed starting in June 2025. For those still waiting in Phase 1 areas, payments will resume from May 13.
