My Answer with regards to your Question:
In Singapore, eligibility for housing grants is subject to certain criteria, including the applicant's marital status, income, and whether they or their family members have previously received housing subsidies or grants. Here's how the scenario you described might impact your eligibility for housing grants:
Marital Status: As a single applicant, you may be eligible for housing grants if you meet the other eligibility criteria.
Parent's Ownership of a New Flat: If your parent has previously bought a new flat and received housing grants or subsidies for it, this may affect your eligibility for certain grants.
Family Nucleus: Your eligibility for housing grants may depend on whether you form a family nucleus with your parent(s) when applying for the BTO flat. A family nucleus typically includes spouses, children, and parents. If you are applying under the Public Scheme as a single applicant, your parent(s) would not be included in your family nucleus.
Previous Housing Subsidies: If your parent(s) have previously received housing subsidies or grants, this may affect your eligibility for certain grants, such as the Additional CPF Housing Grant (AHG) or the Special CPF Housing Grant (SHG). These grants have specific criteria regarding the applicant's household income and whether they or their family members have previously received housing subsidies.
Other Eligibility Criteria: Apart from family circumstances, eligibility for housing grants is also determined by factors such as citizenship, age, income ceiling, and whether the applicant has owned or disposed of any private residential properties in the past.
It's essential to carefully review the eligibility criteria for the specific housing grants you're interested in and consult with HDB for personalized advice based on your situation. They can provide guidance on your eligibility for grants and assist you in understanding any potential implications of your parent's previous housing purchase on your application.
