## The four parts of the GST Voucher

The GST Voucher (GSTV) is a permanent scheme that helps lower- and middle-income Singaporeans with what they pay in GST. Each part supports a different household need:

| Part | For | Paid |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Cash** | Immediate needs | August, to each eligible person |
| **MediSave** | Healthcare needs of seniors | August, into the CPF MediSave account |
| **U-Save** | Utilities bills of HDB households | January, April, July and October |
| **S&CC rebate** | Service and conservancy charges of HDB households | January, April, July and October |

## GSTV - Cash 2026

You qualify if you are a **Singapore citizen living in Singapore** and:

- you are **aged 21 and above** in 2026;
- your **Assessable Income for YA 2025** (income earned in 2024) is **$39,000 or less**;
- the **Annual Value (AV)** of your NRIC address as at **31 December 2025** is **$31,000 or less**; and
- you do **not own more than one property**.

The amount depends on the Annual Value: **$850** up to $21,000, and **$450** above $21,000 up to $31,000. It does not matter whether you own or rent your home.

## GSTV - MediSave 2026

The same Annual Value and property tests apply, you must be **aged 65 and above** in 2026, and there is **no income test**. Amounts for Annual Value up to $21,000 and up to $31,000:

| Age in 2026 | AV up to $21,000 | AV above $21,000 up to $31,000 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 65 to 74 | $250 | $150 |
| 75 to 84 | $350 | $250 |
| 85 and above | $450 | $350 |

The payment goes into your CPF MediSave account and follows the CPF withdrawal rules.

## U-Save for HDB households in FY2026

An HDB household gets U-Save if at least one Singapore citizen owns or lives in the flat (or is the tenant, if the whole flat is rented out), and no owner or essential occupier owns or has an interest in more than one property.

In FY2026 the household gets the regular GSTV - U-Save, the **B2026 U-Save** and the **2026 Additional U-Save**, eight payments of the same quarterly amount in total:

| Flat | Each payment | FY2026 total |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1- and 2-room | $95 | $760 |
| 3-room | $85 | $680 |
| 4-room | $75 | $600 |
| 5-room | $65 | $520 |
| Executive and Multi-generation | $55 | $440 |

Rebates are credited to the household's SP Services utilities account. Unused U-Save rolls over and cannot be encashed.

## S&CC rebate

The S&CC rebate offsets between **1.5 and 3.5 months** of service and conservancy charges, from April 2026 to January 2027: 3.5 months for 1- and 2-room flats, 2.5 for 3- and 4-room, 2.0 for 5-room and 1.5 for Executive and Multi-generation flats. At least one Singapore citizen must own or live in the flat, no owner or essential occupier may own or have an interest in private property, and the whole flat must not be rented out. The dollar amount depends on your Town Council's S&CC rate.

## CDC Vouchers 2026

Every Singaporean household can claim **$800** of CDC Vouchers in 2026, with no income or property test: **$300** in January 2026 (valid till 31 December 2026) and **$500** in June 2026 (valid till 31 December 2027). One member claims for the household with Singpass at go.gov.sg/cdcv. Half of each tranche is for heartland merchants and hawkers, and half is for supermarkets.

## Signing up and payment

If you have signed up for a past Government payout, you receive Cash and MediSave automatically in August. If not, sign up on the GSTV e-services with Singpass. The window stays open until **20 June 2027**, and sign-ups after 14 July 2026 are paid within 2 months. Linking your NRIC to PayNow gets Cash to you earlier.

## What this guide does not cover

The checker assumes you are a Singapore citizen living in Singapore, and does not model whether a flat is partly rented out, a missing Assessable Income, or appeals by people who own more than one property. The Government makes the final decision from its own records.
