How will I receive my COL Special Payment?

Updated by GOVBENEFITS

You will receive your COL Special Payment via your PayNow-NRIC linked bank account. To check your PayNow-NRIC-linked bank account details, please approach your bank.

If you do not have a PayNow-NRIC-linked bank account with a PayNow-GIRO-participating local or foreign bank in Singapore but have provided your DBS/POSB, OCBC or UOB bank account number to the Government previously, you will receive your COL Special Payment via bank transfer. You can check and update your bank account details registered with us by logging in to our e-services with your Singpass.

Otherwise, the COL Special Payment will be credited to you via GovCash. GovCash is a payment mode that allows Singaporeans to receive their benefits from Government agencies more quickly and conveniently. You are encouraged to link your NRIC to PayNow with a PayNow-GIRO-participating local or foreign bank in Singapore to receive your benefits earlier.
