Portal Showing “Under Verification”? Here’s What It Means
If the 8171 portal shows a message like “Aapka data tasdeeq mein hai”, it means your information is still being verified by the BISP system. This usually happens in the following cases:
- You’ve just registered or completed the dynamic survey
- Your CNIC or family info is under rechecking
- There’s a temporary delay in the system update
What to do next?
- Wait for 7 to 10 working days
- Keep checking the portal once every few days
- Avoid re-applying or panicking — it may delay the process further
If the message stays the same for more than 3 weeks, visit your nearest BISP office and explain your case with your original CNIC.
