S'poreans reminded to sign up for Growth Dividend

SINGAPORE: Letters will be sent out from December 7 to remind Singaporeans aged 21 and above to sign up for the Growth Dividend this year.

They must do so by 31 December 2011, said the Finance Ministry.

This can be done either online or at any community centre.

Grassroots leaders will also be visiting one- to three-room HDB flats to help the elderly and low-income Singaporeans sign up for their payouts.

Eligible Singaporeans can sign up online at the "Grow & Share" website www.growandshare.gov.sg.

Alternatively, they may complete the "Grow & Share" form available at any community centre, Community Development Council or CPF Service Centre. All forms should reach CPF Board before 31 December 2011.
