Today I am going to tell you a story about a special tool called PIFRA, which is like a magic helper for people who work for the government in Pakistan. It helps them see how much money they earn every month. Now, in 2023, PIFRA has a new name – it’s called FABS. Let’s learn how to use it.

PIFRA, now known as FABS, is like a smart computer program. It helps people who work for the government in Pakistan to see their salary details online. It’s a very helpful tool because it makes checking your salary very easy.

If you work for the government in Pakistan, you can use PIFRA. You need to be living in Pakistan and know some important things about yourself, like your full name, ID number, where you live in Pakistan, your birthday, and have an email that you haven’t used with PIFRA before.

How to Check Your Salary Slip?
You can see your salary slip in two ways:

Remember the Short Codes
When you use FABS, you might need to use some short codes. These codes are like shortcuts for different parts of the government. For example, ‘F’ is for Federal, ‘P’ is for Punjab, and so on.
And that’s how you use PIFRA or FABS to see your salary. It’s a great way to keep track of your hard-earned money. Remember, it’s like a treasure hunt every month to find out how much you’ve earned.
