Singaporeans can look forward to up to $800 in vouchers in celebration of the nation's 60th birthday. During his Budget 2025 speech on Tuesday (Feb 18), Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Lawrence Wong announced the SG60 package which aims to «recognise the contributions of all Singaporeans» and share the benefits of the nation's progress. All Singaporeans aged 21 and above will receive SG60 vouchers across the month of July as part of the package. Those aged 21 to 59 will receive $600 in vouchers while those 60 and older will get $800. Like the CDC vouchers, half of these SG60 vouchers will be set aside for use at supermarkets and the other half for heartland merchants. These vouchers will be valid for use at all businesses that accept CDC vouchers and will be valid until December 2026. Singaporeans will also be entitled to a personal income tax rebate of 60 per cent for the year of assessment 2025, said PM Wong. The rebate will be capped at $200 to mostly benefit the middle-income workers, he added. Read more
