The amount of MediSave contribution you need to make to qualify for Workfare Income Supplement (WIS) is based on your NTI earned in the Work Year without accounting for previous years’ losses. CPF Board receives this NTI from IRAS. This amount may differ from the MediSave contributions you are required to fulfil as a self-employed person under the Self-Employed Scheme (SES), which may be adjusted based on previous years’ losses or excess MediSave contributions.
