87,000 Singaporeans have yet to sign up for their 2007 GST credits to help them offset the two percentage point GST increase.
The Finance Ministry on Thursday has reminded those who have not yet signed up to receive their credits to do so by 31 Dec 2007.
Those who do not sign up by this deadline will not be eligible to receive this year's GST Credits and Senior Citizens' Bonus.
Singaporeans need only to sign up once to get their credits and bonuses for all the four years from 2007 to 2010.
As of 26 December, over 2.2 million Singaporeans or 96 per cent of the 2.3 million who qualify have signed up to receive their GST Credits.
You can sign up for your 2007 GST Credits through the GST offset package website at www.gstoffset.gov.sg or fill up the GST/1 forms available at any CC, CDC, Singpost office or CPF Centre.
All forms should reach the CPF Board no later than 31 Dec 2007.
For more information on the GST offset package, you can also call the CPF Board at 1800 2222 888.
