800,000 HDB households to get $45m worth of GST Voucher rebates

The rebates will be given this month.

According to a release by the Ministry of Finance, about 800,000 Singaporean HDB households will receive $45m worth of GST Voucher – Utilities-Save (U-Save) rebates in October 2013.

The GST Voucher – U-Save is the household component of the permanent GST Voucher scheme that was introduced in Budget 2012.

It provides a direct offset on utilities expenses for households, and will be paid out 4 times a year. This October, eligible Singaporean households will each receive a GST Voucher – U-Save of up to $65, depending on their HDB flat type. No sign-up is required for the rebates.

The Regular and Special Payment for the GST Voucher – U-Save as announced in Budget 2013 will provide substantial assistance to households. Those living in 1- to 2-room HDB flats can offset about 6 to 8 months of utilities bills on average with their GST Voucher – U-Save. Those living in 3- to 4-room HDB flats can offset up to 4 months of utilities bills on average
