This article provides a step-by-step guide on how to check your PMT score online, explains the score range, eligibility criteria, and what to do if your score is too high. It’s simple, easy to follow, and fully updated for July 2025.
What is a PMT Score and Why It Matters?
The PMT score is a numeric value assigned to each household based on its financial condition. This score is calculated from the NSER (National Socio-Economic Registry) survey and includes details like:
-
Monthly income
-
Family size
-
Home ownership or rental status
-
Vehicle or land ownership
-
Education level and employment status
The lower your PMT score, the more likely you are to qualify for BISP payments.
