 +</WRAP>
 +
 +===== Who is eligible =====
 +  * Pregnant woman, age 19+
 +  * First live birth (or first girl child for additional Rs 6,000 on second)
 +  * Aadhaar-linked bank account
 +  * Anganwadi or hospital registration of pregnancy
 +
 +===== What you get =====
 +Rs 5,000 for first child in 2 instalments: Rs 3,000 on early pregnancy registration (within 150 days) + Rs 2,000 on first ANC + 6 months. Rs 6,000 additional on second-girl-child birth (single instalment).
 +
 +===== How to apply (step-by-step) =====
 +  - **Register at Anganwadi / govt hospital** — Within first trimester for full benefit.
 +  - **Submit Form 1A + KYC** — Aadhaar of mother + father + bank account + MCP card.
 +  - **Anganwadi worker submits to PMMVY-CAS** — Online application; you receive an ID.
 +  - **First instalment after verification** — Rs 3,000 credited 60-90 days of registration.
 +  - **Second instalment after first ANC + 6 months** — Rs 2,000 credited.
 +  - **On second-child-girl birth** — File fresh Form 1A; Rs 6,000 in single instalment.
 +
 +===== Documents needed =====
 +  * Aadhaar (mother + father)

 +  * **Helpline:** PMMVY: 011-23380109 / Anganwadi worker
 +
 +===== Common issues =====
 +  * Aadhaar of father missing — required for PMMVY 2.0 framework. Get Aadhaar first.
 +  * Late registration (after 150 days) — disqualifies first instalment of Rs 3,000.
 +  * Bank Aadhaar de-linked — DBT fails. Visit bank.
 +  * Second-child rule misunderstood — only girl-child gets Rs 6,000; second boy gets nothing additional.
 +
 +===== Benefit delayed or rejected? File an RTI =====
 +
 +Most "delays" or "rejections" clear within 7-15 days of an RTI being filed. Use this 5-question template:
