Singapore Budget 2017 - U-SAVE GST Vouchers

Announced on the 20th February 2017's Singapore Budget, Singaporeans will receive their annual U-SAVE GST vouchers for year 2017.
The U-SAVE GST Voucher is used to help households reduce their utility bills.
This year, there will be an increase in the U-SAVE Vouchers to help families cope with their utility bills that are set to rise.
The amount will increase by $40-$120, depending on flat type.
This increase is permanent (next year, you can expect to get the same amount of U-SAVE you get this year if you are still staying in your current flat).
