Asked by
Hi, I am a second timer in getting a HDB whereas my partner is a first timer.

We are allowed to get a Resale Flat together via the Joint Singles Scheme and be co-owners right? So both of our CPF can be used?

However, when I was trying out the HFE application, the remarks under Application 1 indicated that:

HDB will assess your household’s eligibility to buy an HDB flat, receive CPF housing grants and obtain an HDB housing loan. All co-applicant(s) and occupier(s) must have a legal relationship with Applicant 1, unless he/she is the fiancé/fiancée of Applicant 1. Where applicable, you and your fiancé(e)/spouse, followed by child(ren) or parent(s) will be the recipient of any housing subsidy/grants.


Since both me and partner are not married yet, how can we apply for HFE together if we are looking to get a Resale Flat under the Joint Singles Scheme (JSS) ?

Looking forward to any favorable response.

Thank you,
AK

You and your co-applicant must fulfill these critiera at least:

1) At least 35 years old (unmarried or divorced), or
2) At least 21 years old (widowed or an orphan)

You can call up HDB for further assistance if you are deemed to have fulfilled all requirements.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 14 years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.
