No, new registration without completing the NSER dynamic survey is not possible in February 2026. The Benazir Income Support Programme requires household data collection, poverty score calculation, and biometric verification before approval. The survey ensures support reaches deserving families based on real socio-economic conditions. Skipping this step leads to incomplete records and automatic ineligibility. Visiting a registration center and providing accurate family details is the only approved route.
