SINGAPORE – Families with Singaporean children aged 12 years old and below will receive $500 for each child in Child LifeSG credits from July 14.
The credits can be used to defray household expenses such as groceries, utilities and pharmacy items, said the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) in a statement on July 13.
Families with children born between 2014 and 2025 will get the credits from July 14, while the credits for children born in 2026 will be disbursed in April 2027.
The $500 credits had been announced by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong at Budget 2026 in February, as part of measures to help families with the cost of raising children.
This comes on top of the $500 Child LifeSG credits top-up that was disbursed to more than 450,000 children in 2025.
