Parenthood tax rebate

'Parenthood Tax Rebate' (PTR) is a lump sum rebate given to married Singapore tax residents to encourage them to have more Singapore citizen children by providing them with financial support for bringing up their children.
Features

  • PTR can be used to offset your income tax payable
  • PTR may be shared with your spouse based on the apportionment agreed by both parties
  • Unutilised PTR will be carried forward to offset future income tax payable, until it is fully utilised.
How much you can claim
  • From YA 2009 onwards, the PTR has been extended to include 1st child, 5th child and subsequent children.
