Is Dependants' Protection Scheme compulsory?

Updated by CPF
Coverage under the Dependants' Protection Scheme (DPS) is not compulsory. Insured members can contact their existing insurer, Great Eastern Life or NTUC Income, to terminate their DPS cover any time by completing the opt out form.
 
Members should consider the benefits of DPS carefully before he/she terminates his/her DPS cover. Continuing with the DPS cover will provide some financial protection for the member’s family. If members decide to rejoin DPS in the future, they will need to submit a health declaration again and the cover will be provided subject to them being in good health then.
