Rs.200 Verification Fee Explained

Previously, registration was done online, followed by SMS confirmations. Now, every applicant must visit the nearest AZAG office for physical verification. Here is how the fee works:

• Amount: Rs.200 per applicant per household.

• When to pay: Only after successful verification, never in advance.

• Where to pay: At the official counter inside the office.

• Receipt: Always demand an official receipt as proof.

• No intermediaries: Never pay agents or third parties.

This fee is an official step introduced to ensure fair verification and smooth processing of documents.

Affidavit & Why It Is Important (AZAG)

As part of the verification, each applicant must submit an affidavit on Rs.200 e-stamp paper. The affidavit includes personal and eligibility information such as:

• Full name, CNIC number, father’s or husband’s name

• Address, tehsil, and district

• Confirmation of not owning any residential plot, land, or apartment in Pakistan

• Declaration of no loan default from any bank or financial institution

• Statement that all information provided is true

This affidavit acts as a legal document showing that the applicant is eligible for the program. Misrepresentation can lead to cancellation of the application and legal action.

Who Needs to Submit Documents Now

The new instructions apply only to applicants who completed online registration before 16 July 2025 and received a confirmation SMS.

People who did not register or did not receive the SMS do not need to take action at this stage. They must wait for future registration openings announced by the authorities.

Documents Required for Scrutiny Committee

Applicants must bring originals and photocopies of the following documents:

• CNIC of the applicant and spouse (if applicable)

• Domicile certificate issued by the district authority

• Affidavit on Rs.200 e-stamp paper (covering property ownership and income declaration)

• Proof of property ownership, if any

• Financial records or proof of income, if requested

• Police character certificate from local police station or E-Khidmat Markaz

• Any additional documents demanded by the committee

If any required document is missing or false, the application may be rejected immediately.
