The benefits include:

  • GST Voucher (GSTV) – this comprises the GSTV – Cash, GSTV – Medisave and GSTV- U-Save
  • GSTV Special Payment – a one-off extra payment of GSTV;
  • $200 top-up to the CPF Medisave Accounts of all Singaporeans aged 45 and above.

Eligible Singaporeans will automatically receive their GSTV payouts on 1 August 2013.

However, a small number of eligible Singaporeans who have not signed up for a previous Government  payout (such as the GSTV last year or the 2011 Growth Dividend) will need to do so via the following channels to receive the payout by 1 August:
– Online at www.gstvoucher.gov.sg (by 16 July); or
– Hard copy form (by 12 July) available at any Community Centre, Community  Development Council or CPF Service Centre.

Those who sign up after these dates will get their payouts after 1 August. Singaporeans have until 31 December 2013 to sign up
