Request for subsidy reassessment

Request for subsidy reassessment

If there are changes to your household circumstances, you may submit another subsidy application through the preschool for ECDA to reassess your child’s preschool subsidy eligibility.

Reasons for voluntary reassessment


  • Change in employment and/or income.
  • Change of family composition (to qualify for per capita income (PCI) computation).
  • Change in subsidy applicant’s marital status.

About PCI computation


PCI computation is applicable for households with at least 5 family members who are related by blood, marriage, and/or legal adoption, and who share the same registered residential address.

All family members (including dependants and non-dependants) residing at the same NRIC address as the main applicant must be included in the PCI computation. This includes, but is not limited to, grandparents, and other family members sharing the same registered residential address as the main applicant.
