My friend will be in the same situation as you. No problem renting out the flat when u declare it to HDB stating ur reasons. But I presume the rental will be taxed.

I also have another friend who is renting their home now because the whole family moved temporarily to US for two years.

Don't think you would have any problem.

Hi guys, first-timer applicant here, applied for 4-rm BTO at queenstown. However, my gf and I are thinking of furthering our studies overseas in about 2-3 years time (2014-2015) for 3 years (returning in 2018-2019). This means that should we get the flat, it could be vacant for about 2 years after it is ready, given the date of completion is 2nd Q of 2017. Two questions:

1. Can I confirm that the MOP starts from the point we return from overseas, since hdb site states physical presence is required?

2. Are we able to rent the unit out in such circumstances where MOP is not satisfied but we are not in the country? Or any idea what we might be able to do instead of leaving the flat vacant? (E.g have the flat choped for us but start paying when we get back?)

We really like the location and our plans to further studies abroad are still not confirmed. Therefore we decided to go ahead with the ballot. Any advice would be most appreciated. We would also be going down to HDB office to find out more, just wanted to see if anyone might have some experience or expertise in such a situation.

Thanks in advance!

1 yr in advance for sk projects occurred before...but most bto flats complete within 2 1/2 - 3yrs...

yup.. but usually completion date earlier.. 1 to 1/2 yr earlier.. so posession date can be earlier too.. which means collection of keys too.. which also means must ROM for fiance/fiancee scheme.. which also means reno too... and more $$$

I would like to know about this too. Said u plan to ROM as what it was stated on the Date of completion date. However the project was ahead for a year. Are we going to ROM a year advance too?

3 months of extension before you submit you marriage cert upon taking the key.

If you took the AHG, you must produce your marriage cert when collecting your keys.

 

[Expert]

If you took the AHG, you must produce your marriage cert when collecting your keys.

if nv take any AHG due to not eligible, marriage cert also have to be produced?

3 month extension for that scheme .

If you take the key at June. By sept you must submit your marriage cert.

The cert is a must for the flat. Not for the grant eligibility .
