My Answer with regards to your Question:

https://www.mnd.gov.sg/newsroom/parliament-matters/q-as/view/oral-answer-by-ministry-of-national-development-on-how-many-singaporeans-aged-below-35-who-are-married-to-foreigners-who-are-not-long-term-visit-pass-holders-made-appeals-to-buy-hdb-flats-or-rent-flats-under-the-public-rental-scheme

PLS READ FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE : )

Answer:

Singapore citizens (SCs) married to non-resident spouses (or “SC-NR couples” for short) have similar access to public housing as other Singaporean families, if they have a child who is an SC or Singapore Permanent Resident (SPR).

2. SC-NR couples without an SC or SPR child can buy an HDB flat under the Non-Citizen Spouse Scheme.

a. If the SC is aged between 21 and 34 and the NR spouse has a Long-Term Visit Pass or a Work Pass with at least six months validity at the time of flat application, the couple can buy any resale HDB flat on the open market, except for 3Gen flats and flats launched under the Prime Location Public Housing model.

b. If the SC is a First-Timer aged 35 and above, the couple can also buy a new 2-room Flexi flat in the non-mature estates from HDB, in addition to the resale options I explained earlier.

3. For public rental housing, SC-NR couples who do not have an SC or PR child do not meet the citizenship eligibility criterion. That notwithstanding, HDB assesses all requests holistically and exercises flexibility for those in exceptional circumstances with no other housing options or family support.

4. From 2019 to 2023, HDB received an average of about 160 appeals per year to buy an HDB flat or access public rental housing from SC-NR couples who did not meet the citizenship eligibility criterion and where the Singaporean spouse was aged below 35. This number includes couples where the foreign spouse had a LTVP, as HDB does not track the number of such couples with or without LTVP. HDB carefully assesses each appeal based on the household’s unique circumstances, taking into account factors such as housing needs, financial conditions, family circumstances and medical conditions. Over the last five years, HDB acceded to an average of 13 appeals per year.
