How do I change my child’s Child Development Account trustee to get Child LifeSG Credits?
The Child LifeSG Credits will be paid to the Child Development Account (CDA) trustee of an eligible child based on the eligibility assessment date.

Child's birth year | Eligibility assessment date | Disbursement timeline |
Between 2014 and 2025 | 1 June 2026 | July 2026 |
2026 | 1 March 2027 | April 2027 |

Child's birth year | Eligibility assessment date | Disbursement timeline |
Between 2013 and 2024 | 1 June 2025 | Week of 7 July 2025 |

If you wish to change the CDA trustee, the current trustee may do so using the internet banking app or the bank's online portal where your CDA is held. Both of the child's parents must discuss and agree on who the CDA trustee should be.
Alternatively, the child’s parent who has been given the care and control of the child may provide a copy of the court order at https://go.gov.sg/msf-bb-change-cda-trustee.
