When to expect?
The Singapore households can expect the U-Save and S&CC rebate in April 2025, but the government has not specified any date. The recipients can expect a message from the authority when their payment is credited.
The U-Save rebate will be credited to the recipient’s utilities account with your household grid operator, SP Services, whereas the S&CC rebate will be reflected in your S&CC account managed by the Town Council, respectively.
The households should remember the government will never ask the citizens to disclose their banking account or transfer money to the bank account, so if you get any call mentioning this, remember it’s a scam, so be vigilant and save your money.
Do you need to apply?
No, Singapore eligible households do not need to apply for the U-Save and the S&CC rebate as it is an automatic payment processed based on your HDB flat data saved with your utility account and Town Council.
