One-off cash payment of $200 to $400 for eligible adult Singaporeans in June 2023.
One-off cash payment of $200 to $300 for eligible Singaporeans aged 55 and above in June 2023.
Double the regular U-Save rebates for eligible HDB households for April, July and October 2023. Together with regular U-Save, eligible households will receive a total of $440 to $760 rebates in 2023.
Each Singaporean child aged 0 - 6 years will receive a one-off $400 top-up to the CDA.
Each Singaporean child aged 7 - 16 years and 17 - 20 years will receive a one-off $300 top-up to the Edusave account and PSEA respectively. This is in addition to the annual Edusave contribution by the Government.
Beyond these one-off support measures, enhancements to the AP include:
Every Singaporean household will receive an additional $100 CDC Vouchers in 2024. This means that Singaporean households will receive a total of $300 CDC vouchers in January 2024.
All eligible adult Singaporean will receive an additional AP Cash of between $300 and $650 over the remaining years of the AP, in December every year.
This will bring the total AP Cash payments received by adult Singaporeans to between $700 to $2,250 (depending on their income and property ownership) over five years, from 2022 to 2026.
The enhanced Permanent GSTV scheme will continue to offset GST expenses for lower- to middle-income Singaporean households, beyond the transitional support provided by the AP. At Budget 2023, the Government announced that the GSTV – Cash quantum will be further increased, by up to $350.
This increase will be implemented over 2023 and 2024.
