\nThese will be disbursed through a one-off GST voucher \u2013 U-Save as part of the Care and Support Package unveiled during Budget 2020.
\nAbout 940,000 Singaporean households living in Housing and Development Board (HDB) flats will receive double their regular GST Voucher \u2013 Utilities-Save (U-Save) rebate for the financial year 2020, revealed the Ministry of Finance (MOF) on Thursday (2 April).
\nThese will be disbursed through a one-off GST voucher \u2013 U-Save as part of the Care and Support Package unveiled during Budget 2020.
\nEligible households with five or more members will get an additional GST Voucher, which means that they will be receiving a total of 2.5 times their regular U-Save rebate.
\nOverall, this amounts to $630 million in benefits for Singaporean households.
\nMOF said the scheme will help households offset part of their utility bills, reducing their overall household expenses.
\nHouseholds living in one- and two-room HDB flats ordinarily receive annual U-Save rebates equal to around three to four months of their average utility bills.<\/p>\n
