If my nominee passed away, what do I need to do next?
If your nominee(s) passes on before you, his/her share will be given to surviving nominee(s) in the same proportion you have specified.
If there are no surviving nominee(s), your nomination is considered revoked, and your savings will be transferred to the Public Trustee’s Office for distribution under the intestacy or Muslim Inheritance laws.
We encourage CPF members to review their nominations whenever there are changes to their circumstances, such as death of nominee, and make a new CPF nomination if necessary. This will allow them to reallocate the shares to surviving nominee(s) based on their wishes, or even include new nominees.
