Banglar Yuva Sathi Scheme (also called Yuva Sathi or Jubo Sathi) is giving ₹1,500 per month to educated unemployed youth in West Bengal. The scheme started from April 2026 (some got first payment in March too).
Many beneficiaries have already received the 1st installment, and now the 2nd installment (April 2026 payment) is being credited in many districts. If you have applied and still haven’t received the money, here is the easiest way to check your Yuva Sathi 2nd payment status online in 2026.
What is Banglar Yuva Sathi Scheme?
- Monthly financial help: ₹1,500
- For unemployed youth aged 21 to 40 years
- Who have passed at least Class 10 (Madhyamik)
- Payment continues till you get a job or maximum 5 years
- Money comes directly to your Aadhaar-linked bank account via DBT
How to Check Yuva Sathi 2nd Payment Status Online (2026)
Here are the two main ways to check your payment status:
Method 1: Check Application & Payment Status on Official Portal
- Go to the official Yuva Sathi portal: https://yubasathi.wb.gov.in
- On the homepage, click on “Check Status” (or “Track Application Status”).
- Enter your registered mobile number.
- Fill the Captcha code.
- Click on “Get OTP”.
- Enter the OTP received on your mobile and verify.
- Your application details will appear. Here you can see:
- Application Status (Approved / Pending / Rejected)
- Payment Status (1st Installment, 2nd Installment, Payment Initiated, Credited, etc.)
Method 2: Check Payment Status through WBIFMS Portal (Recommended for Payment)
Many people use this method to check actual bank credit status:
- Visit → https://wbifms.gov.in
- Look for the “Know Your Status” or “Payment Status” section (sometimes under File Download > KnowMyStatusGeneric).
- Enter your Bank Account Number or Application Reference Number.
- Verify with Captcha or OTP.
- See if the ₹1500 for the 2nd installment has been processed or credited.
Pro Tip: Always check your bank SMS, passbook, or app (SBI, HDFC, Axis, etc.) for credit alert from “WB GOVT” or “DBT”.
Why Haven’t You Received the 2nd Payment Yet? (Common Reasons)
- Aadhaar not linked with bank account
- Bank account details wrong or inactive
- Application still under verification
- District-wise staggered payment release (some districts get earlier)
- Technical delay in DBT processing
Many people on Reddit and YouTube reported receiving the 2nd installment in April 2026, while others are still waiting. Payments are being released gradually.
What to Do If Payment is Delayed?
- Wait for 7–10 more days and check again.
- Call the Yuva Sathi Helpdesk: 62922 48888 (available Mon–Fri, 10:30 AM – 5:30 PM)
- Visit your local Block Development Office or Youth Services Department with your application number.
- Ensure your Aadhaar is seeded with the bank account.

Final Advice
Keep checking your registered mobile for SMS alerts from the West Bengal Government. Do not believe anyone asking for money or OTP to “release” your payment — it’s completely free and comes via DBT.
