I am a ComCare Long Term Assistance (previously known as Public Assistance) recipient who is receiving Silver Support. Can I qualify for higher Silver Support?
Seniors aged 65 and above on the ComCare Long Term Assistance (LTA) Scheme will automatically qualify for the Silver Support (SS) Scheme and receive a flat amount of $360 per quarter^, regardless of their HDB flat type.
The SS supplements the assistance that ComCare LTA beneficiaries receive, which includes monthly cash assistance to cover the recipient's daily living expenses, assistance with their medical bills at public healthcare institutions, and free or highly subsidised social services such as home help or Active Ageing Centres funded by the government.
^Silver Support will be enhanced in 2025. For the updated Silver Support payments in 2025, please refer to our FAQs here.
