Andhra Pradesh Sets June 2026 Deadline to Roll Out QR-Enabled Smart Family Cards

A statewide data push under the Family Benefit Management System will make each household a single unit for services.

Overview

Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu directed completion of individual and family data updates by January 2026 using the RTGS Data Lake as the single source of truth.
The cards will cover 1.4 crore families and carry QR codes with nearly 25 categories of static and dynamic data, including Aadhaar, vaccination, caste, ration, scholarships and pensions.
Departments were told to reflect all civic services and welfare benefits on the card to streamline eligibility checks and access to schemes.
Swarnandhra Vision Units will assist villages and towns in updating household information ahead of issuance.
Chief Secretary K. Vijayanand and senior officials reviewed the rollout at the Secretariat, with statewide distribution slated for June 2026.
