HDB to extend Parenthood Provisional Housing Scheme until December

Eligible families will receive $300 per month on a reimbursement basis.

The Housing Development Board (HDB) will extend the Parenthood Provisional Housing Scheme (PPHS) voucher by six months until 31 December 2025.

HDB aims to support families renting from the open market whilst awaiting the completion of their new flats.

Eligible families will receive $300 per month on a reimbursement basis to defray rental costs during the support period. About 200 households will benefit from the extension.

To qualify, families must have booked an uncompleted flat from HDB’s sales exercises and have a household income of $7,000 and below.

With the ramp-up in PPHS supply to about 4,000 units by end-2025, the application rate for PPHS flats has declined significantly, to around three from over 20 in 2021.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
