FAQ

Who is eligible for the Workfare Income Supplement?add
For Work Year 2025, you must be a Singapore Citizen aged 30 or above (or a person with disabilities of any age), earn a gross monthly income between $500 and $3,000 with a 12-month average of no more than $3,000, live in a property with an Annual Value of $21,000 or below, own no more than one property, and — if married — have a spouse whose assessable income does not exceed $70,000.
How much Workfare will I receive?add
The maximum annual WIS for employees in Work Year 2025 is $2,450 (age 30–34), $3,500 (35–44), $4,200 (45–59) and $4,900 (60 and above, and persons with disabilities). Self-employed maximums are lower. These are maximums — the amount you actually receive scales with your monthly income, so use the CPF Board WIS estimator for an exact figure.
How is Workfare paid out?add
For employees, 40% of WIS is paid in cash and 60% goes into your CPF accounts, disbursed monthly. For self-employed persons and platform workers, 10% is paid in cash and 90% goes into your MediSave Account.
Can a person with disabilities under 30 receive Workfare?add
Yes. The minimum age of 30 is waived for persons with disabilities, who can receive WIS at any age. They are paid at the highest age band rate (the 60-and-above tier).
Does owning a second property disqualify me?add
Yes. WIS eligibility requires that you — and your spouse, if married — own no more than one property. Owning two or more properties makes you ineligible regardless of income.
