    Use SingPass for CPF e-Services
    A common password is now all you need for any online transactions with the Government, from exchanging Economic Restructuring Shares for cash to filing a notice of marriage.

    SingPass, meaning Singapore Personal Access, replaced the 8-digit CPF PAL PIN on March 1. This alphanumeric password, which comprises eight to 24 characters, is the online version of the identity card.

    Mr Willie Tan Yoke Meng, the Board’s Chief Executive Officer, said: “With SingPass, users need to remember only one password to access government e-services. This makes it more convenient for users to transact with the Government. By end-2004, we expect all government e-services requiring authentication to offer SingPass access.”

    PROTECT YOUR NON-WORKING SPOUSES WITH MEDISHIELD
    If you’re a newly-wed Singaporean or Permanent Resident and do not work, you’ll now be automatically covered by MediShield, an affordable medical insurance scheme that helps you to meet the cost of treating major or lengthy illnesses.

    MediShield coverage ensures that non-working spouses are financially protected against the high cost of medical fees in the event of a serious or prolonged illness. The insurance cover, given on the basis of good health, is subject to the scheme’s terms and conditions. Premiums will be deducted from your spouse’s Medisave Account if he/she is working.

    If you are currently not insured and wish to be insured, please call our enquiry line at 1800-227-1188 (code 6) to request an application form. Or, you can apply for the cover online by accessing the CPF E-Application Service (EASE) with your CPF Account Number and SingPass.

    For more information on MediShield/MediShield Plus, please visit our website at www.cpf.gov.sg or call our enquiry line.
