HDB owner suddenly passed away leaving behind mother and spouse who has never contributed to the house but just a foreigner (non-pr or citizen) officially ROM when she came to Singapore.
Spouse (Granted letter of Administration) is going to sell the house away to get the money, the deceased mother will be evict/homeless (daughter married out already).
1. Any law in Singapore to protect the elderly mother?
2. The elderly mother when gets her 50% share from sale of HDB also can't afford to buy a house on her own. Any case to "fight"with the spouse to retain the HDB?
3. After selling the HDB, will it be possible the spouse takes the cheque and not pay the mother 50% or the share? Or HDB will help to distribute 50% - 50% accordingly to them?
4. Can the law make the spouse pay the mother maintenance fees and etc? The mother was all along depending on her son when he was alive.
