Pioneers who are already receiving payouts from IDAPE, ElderFund, ElderShield, CareShield Life, MediSave Care or Home Caregiving Grant, are automatically included in PioneerDAS.

AIC will contact these Pioneers separately.

There are several ways you can apply for PioneerDAS.

1. Apply for this scheme online using Singpass

   This is done via AIC’s e-Services for Financing Schemes (eFASS). We recommend this method as the approval waiting time is shorter.

   Read the terms and conditions before you start.

   Please read here if you are applying for the grant on behalf of someone who lacks mental capacity.

2. Seek assistance from the nursing home your loved one is staying in

   If you are applying for PioneerDAS to help you offset the cost of the nursing home fees, you can ask the service provider to help. You can nominate the payout to be made directly to the nursing home.

3. Apply via hard copy

   Email apply@aic.sg to obtain a copy of the application form or visit any AIC Link.

   We seek your understanding that hardcopy applications take a longer time to process.
