The
Home Caregiving Grant (HCG) has replaced the Foreign Domestic Worker (FDW) Grant
from October 2019.
The HCG
is an assistance scheme that is intended to help families to care for their
loved ones with moderate to severe disabilities. Eligible families may receive
a monthly grant payment of $200. The grant can be used to defray the costs of
caregiving expenses, such as the cost of caregiver support services in the
community, or hiring of a Foreign Domestic Worker (FDW).
For information on the eligibility criteria and how to apply, please visit the Agency for Integrated Care's (AIC) website.
