If you’re a BISP Kafalat beneficiary expecting your Rs. 14,500 payment in July 2025, you may be worried about biometric verification errors at the payment center. Every month, thousands of deserving women face this problem — but the good news is that there are easy ways to avoid it or fix it if it happens.
This updated July 2025 guide explains why biometric errors happen, how to prevent them, and what to do if you can’t get your payment due to fingerprint issues.
Why Do Biometric Verification Errors Happen?
Biometric failures are common because:
-
Worn-out fingerprints: Elderly people, farmers, and manual laborers often have faded fingerprints.
-
Dirty or sweaty fingers: Dust, oil, or sweat can block the scanner.
-
Faulty biometric machines: Some shops use old or poorly maintained devices.
-
Outdated CNIC details: Your NADRA record may not match your current fingerprints.
-
Incorrect data: Mismatched CNIC numbers or family details can trigger failures.
Quick Tips to Avoid Biometric Failure
✅ Wash & Dry Hands: Clean hands give better scans.
✅ Avoid Creams & Henna: Don’t apply lotion or mehndi before visiting.
✅ Use a Good Machine: Visit a reputable retailer or campsite with reliable scanners.
✅ Check CNIC Validity: Make sure your CNIC is valid and updated in NADRA’s system.
