Officials said that individuals with incorrect or incomplete CNIC or mobile number information should contact the relevant assistant commissioner, who will serve as the chairperson of the redressal committee. Verified cases will then be forwarded to the deputy commissioner for correction.
Authorities also clarified that payments cannot be processed for blocked CNICs, and such funds will be returned to the Director of Social Welfare.
For elderly or disabled beneficiaries encountering fingerprint verification problems, a certificate from the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) confirming the biometric issue is required, along with a Family Registration Certificate (FRC). The assistant commissioner’s office will then facilitate transferring the payment to a close relative.
In instances where a registered beneficiary has passed away, family members must submit the death certificate and an application to the assistant commissioner’s office. After verification, payments will be released to a close relative as per the NADRA-issued FRC.
Authorities have urged all beneficiaries facing difficulties to promptly contact their relevant assistant commissioner office to ensure timely resolution of concerns regarding the Ramadan Relief Package 2026.
