Disbursements for the May 2026 Non-Cash Food Assistance (BPNT) have commenced in several regions. The Rp600,000 aid, part of the second 2026 social assistance phase covering April, May, and June, is being deposited into beneficiaries’ Kartu Keluarga Sejahtera (KKS) accounts.

Many recipients are now checking their status via mobile phone using their KTP NIK to confirm whether the assistance has been credited. Payments are processed through KKS accounts linked to Himbara banks—BRI, BNI, Mandiri, and BTN—or via post offices in some areas, depending on local procedures.

A ‘YA’ status indicates inclusion in the disbursement list and that funds are being or have been disbursed. Beneficiaries typically see a Rp600,000 balance in their KKS account for the three-month allocation. The system displays recipient details, assistance type, desil group, and disbursement status.

However, disbursement schedules vary by region, influenced by bank readiness, local administration, and distribution mechanisms. Residents are advised to regularly check their status to stay updated on the latest disbursement information.

If names do not appear during checks, residents should confirm with village offices, subdistricts, or local social assistants to verify beneficiary data. Ensure the disbursement status shows ‘YA’ and conduct regular checks via mobile using KTP NIK.
