NSER Survey Still Plays a Central Role
The NSER survey remains a important element in determining your eligibility. If you haven’t completed it yet or if your household data has changed, you must either update it online or visit the nearest BISP center.
Survey data includes the number of family members, housing conditions, employment status, and education level—all essential in the review process.
