    • Household monthly Per Capita Income (PCI) 

    • The Household Monthly Per Capita Income (PCI) is calculated by dividing the total monthly gross household income by the number of members in the household, including working siblings. The total household income includes all sources of income from all household members, whether from employment, rental of property or any other sources. 

      Household members’ monthly gross income refers to monthly income before employee Central Provident Fund (CPF) deductions. It includes regular allowances and other sources of income (e.g. pension, alimony, rental income). One-off payments, annual bonuses and full-time National Service (NSF) allowance are excluded.

      Household members are all those living at the same residential address as the applicant, as reflected in their NRICs, who are related to the applicant by blood or marriage or adoption, such as, parent(s), grandparent(s), and sibling(s).

      To be eligible, the calculated PCI must be less than $2,250.
