How to Check PIP 2026 Status Using NISN and NIK

The Smart Indonesia Programme (PIP) is being disbursed again in June 2026. This educational assistance programme is intended for pupils from underprivileged families to enable them to continue their schooling. In 2026, the target for the PIP programme has been expanded to include kindergarten level as part of the implementation of the 13-year compulsory education policy. Here is how to check the PIP 2026 recipient status: Open the SIPINTAR PIP website of the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education at pip.kemendikdasmen.go.id. Select the ‘Find PIP Recipient’ menu. Enter the Student Identification Number (NISN) and National Identity Number (NIK). Enter the verification code. Once done, click ‘Check PIP Recipient’. The recipient status will then be displayed. When is the PIP 2026 Disbursement? Based on data from the Indonesia Information Portal, the distribution of PIP assistance in 2026 is divided into three terms: Term I (February-April): Final year students and pupils whose data has been verified. Term II (May-September): Students who have been designated as recipients through a Decree (SK). Term III (October-December): Students who have not yet received assistance in the previous terms. Currently, the disbursement is still in Term II and will run until September 2026. The nominal amount of PIP 2026 assistance is adjusted according to the education level: Kindergarten, Primary School, and Package A: Rp450,000 per year. Junior High School and Package B: Rp750,000 per year. Senior High School, Vocational School, and Package C: Rp1,800,000 per year. For new students and final-year students, the assistance is provided at 50 percent of the full nominal amount. Priority PIP Recipients The government prioritises PIP assistance for the following groups: Holders of the Smart Indonesia Card (KIP). Families receiving the Family Hope Programme (PKH). Holders of the Prosperous Family Card (KKS). Poor or vulnerable families. Orphans. Children affected by special conditions or disasters. Dropout children returning to school. Participants of Package A, B, and C. Madrasah students receiving PIP from the Ministry of Religious Affairs. Reasons for Undisbursed PIP Funds Undisbursed funds do not necessarily mean the assistance has been cancelled. Some common causes include: The recipient’s bank account is inactive. Data is still in the validation process. The recipient’s name has not been included in the Decree (SK) for the current phase. Students and parents are advised to regularly check the status of the assistance through SIPINTAR to stay updated with the latest information.
