How to Check Your PKH and BPNT Social Assistance Status for July 2026

The government has commenced the distribution of social assistance for the Family Hope Programme (PKH) and Non-Cash Food Assistance (BPNT) for July 2026. These programmes are intended for beneficiary families (KPM) registered in the social welfare system, with disbursement carried out in stages following data verification.

To check their recipient status, the public can visit the official Ministry of Social Affairs website at https://cekbansos.kemensos.go.id. Users are required to enter their National Identity Number (NIK) as per their ID card and a verification code. The system will then display the status of their assistance. Alternatively, the ‘Cek Bansos Kemensos’ mobile application can be used for both checking status and proposing new data for social assistance recipients.

The July 2026 disbursement is part of the third phase of the quarterly distribution cycle, which runs from July to September. The PKH programme provides varying amounts of cash assistance based on recipient categories, which include pregnant women, early childhood, school-age children, the elderly, and persons with disabilities. The BPNT programme provides non-cash food assistance to help beneficiary families meet their basic needs.

The Ministry of Social Affairs has urged the public to remain cautious of fraudulent messages or individuals claiming to facilitate the disbursement of social assistance. Beneficiaries are advised to only use official government channels for checking their status and to never share personal data such as NIK, bank account numbers, or secret codes with unauthorised parties.
