The purpose of the stipend increase is to encourage families to prioritize education while reducing the financial burden of schooling.

Families enrolled in BISP can apply for education scholarships for their children, receiving quarterly installments with additional support for their education.

The registration process has been simplified with the launch of the BISP Resource Education App.

To ensure eligibility, parents should verify that the mother’s ID card number is entered correctly on their child’s B-Form to avoid payment issues.
