I have just been verified as a person with disability. As my medical condition existed way earlier, do I also qualify for the Matched Retirement Savings Scheme (MRSS) for my cash top-ups made in previous years?
The Matched Retirement Savings Scheme (MRSS) has been expanded to include verified Singaporeans with disabilities below age 55 who meet the eligibility criteria from 2026.
 
This does not change your MRSS eligibility in previous years. No back-payments will be made as newly eligible persons with disabilities below 55 would still be able to make cash top-ups and receive MRSS matching grants up to the same $20,000 lifetime limit as those who are currently eligible for MRSS. Cash top-ups made in the previous years would have enjoyed tax relief and continue to benefit from the stable interest rate in the Retirement or Special Account.
