How and when will I receive the payment?

For Adult Singaporeans

1. • If you are among the 90% of Singaporeans who have provided your bank account details to the Government for payouts such as the SG Bonus in 2018* and GST Voucher, and your account remains active, your Solidarity Payment of $600 will be directly credited into your bank account on 14 April 2020. From 15 April 2020, you will receive an SMS notifying you of the details of the bank crediting.
     *Does not refer to those who signed-up to receive SG Bonus (2018) via PayNow-NRIC, for which the Government would not have received your bank account details then.
