The year 2026 is starting off great, keeping up with the new rising bills of electricity and water with ease, thanks to the global powers’ uncertainty effect. The government’s support for the economically stressed families continues to be demonstrated in January 2026, when more than 950,000 Singaporean HDB households who meet the requirements are going to be given an additional $190 through the U-Save rebates. Automatic credits will amount to $190 for each household this quarter and that shows Singapore’s commitment to household relief proactively.
What Are U-Save Rebates?
U-Save rebates are among the very first things that come to the mind of GST Voucher scheme. They go directly against the power, water, and gas bills of those who are residents in HDB and are qualified.
The government makes these rebates available quarterly by crediting them into the SP Services accounts for the eligible residents. There is no need to apply for them; they just come automatically.
For Financial Year 2025 (April 2025 to March 2026), Budget 2025 and Assurance Package enhancements will double the regular amounts in many cases.
January 2026 Disbursement Highlights
- Households that qualify will be given $190 U-Save as per the flat type increase in January.
- More money for the smaller flats is to be sure that the support is fair.
- Residents also benefit from the Rebates Up to 0.5-months of Service and Conservancy Charges (S&CC).
- These charges appear directly as credits in council and utilities accounts.
- This marks the end of the last quarterly payment for FY2025 and the closing of a year of enhanced assistance.
Annual U-Save Breakdown For FY2025
Overall enhancement rebates go up to $760 throughout the year by combining regular GSTV-U-Save, Assurance Package top-ups, and Budget 2025 Cost-of-Living support.
Whereas the yearly total by HDB flat type is as shown in the table.
| HDB Flat Type | Total U-Save for FY2025 |
|---|---|
| 1- and 2-room | $760 |
| 3-room | $680 |
| 4-room | $600 |
| 5-room | $520 |
| Executive / Multi-generation | $440 |
Additional S&CC Relief
S&CC rebates that cut down town council fees by U-Save are an additional benefit.
In FY2025, the maximum that eligible households will be given is 3.5 months in total.
Up to 0.5 months is the last tranche given in January 2026.
Support is provided according to flat type, with the smaller homes getting the most.
This dual relief is very effective since it addresses both sorts of expenditures—utilities and estate maintenance.
Broader Support Context
U-Save is a part of the broader measures such as CDC Vouchers ($300 claimable in January 2026) and Climate Vouchers for energy-efficient appliances.
Some benefits of the Assurance Package will last until 2026.
These measures would guard against the effects of GST and help with the rising costs.

All in all, Singapore’s 2026 utility rebates provide timely, targeted assistance to keep household budgets in good shape.
