PMT score 37 rules for mothers of disabled children
BISP launches new survey 2025 for deserving families
Many mothers in Pakistan depend on government aid to support their children. But what happens if their PMT score goes up slightly? Thankfully, there is a special rule for families with disabled children that allows them to stay in the program even if their score increases.
Here’s a simple explanation of how it works and who can benefit.
What Is a PMT Score?
A PMT score (Proxy Means Test) is a number the government uses to check how poor or well-off a family is. It is calculated based on:
-
Family income
-
Size of the family
-
Education level
-
Type of house and assets
Normally, families with a PMT score of 32 or lower qualify for cash aid. If the score goes above 32, they may lose support—except in special cases.
Special Rule for Families With Disabled Children
If you are caring for a child with a disability, you can still stay in the program even if your PMT score rises between 33 and 37.
This rule helps families who face extra challenges and expenses while raising a child with special needs.
Why This Rule Is Important
Taking care of a disabled child often requires:
-
Regular doctor visits
-
Special medicines
-
Therapy and mobility aids
-
Extra travel for treatment
These extra costs are not always considered in the normal PMT system. That’s why the government allows a higher PMT score for such families.
Who Can Get This Support?
You may qualify if:
You are a mother or caregiver of a child with a registered disability
Your PMT score is between 33 and 37
You have official proof of the child’s disability
This means you can continue receiving benefits like cash payments and other support.
How to Check If You’re Eligible
-
Check Your PMT Score
Go to your nearest BISP office or social support center with your CNIC. -
Show Proof of Disability
Bring documents like:-
Disability certificate or ID card
-
Medical report from a government hospital
-
-
Update Your Information
Make sure your family and income details are correct in the system.
What You Will Get
If approved, you may receive:
-
Cash payments every few months
-
Healthcare support (in some areas)
-
Education help for your child
-
Other social services, if available
This special rule makes sure families with disabled children don’t lose support when they need it the most.
