I am a single unwed parent, can I receive the Large Family LifeSG Credits?
Single unwed parents are not eligible to receive the Large Family LifeSG Credits (LFLC). However, if they subsequently marry, their children born outside of marriage will be counted in their family unit. Children born outside of marriage will be ineligible to receive LFLC, but they will add to the child count so that their siblings born in the context of a marriage are able to receive LFLC. For a child born outside of marriage to be eligible to receive LFLC themselves, the single parent of the child must marry and the spouse’s name must be reflected on the child’s birth certificate; or the child must be adopted by the spouse.
