FAQ from MOE

I have purchased a yet-to-be completed property and should be moving in after the property is completed, can I make use of the new home address for the purpose of registration?

Yes. The new home address can be used provided that you are able to produce evidence from the relevant authority that you have committed to the purchase of this property. In the case of private property, parents must produce the original copy of the Sales and Purchase Agreement. The date of commitment by the developer in T.O.P (Temporary Occupation Permit) must not be later than 31 Dec 2011.In the case of HDB flat, the document issued by the HDB. Parents must move into the new property within two years of the child’s entry into Primary One otherwise the child will be transferred out of the school.

Dizzyguy, r u responding to my post?

Just to clarify that she has used an address of an existing property, ie TOPed and rented out to someone else. MOE does random checks only and highly likely would never find out!!

... What will you do if you knew of such cases? I'm sure this is not the first, nor last.

I would wait to see if she gets the place. If she doesn't, case closed. If she does, I will report her to MOE.

[dizzyguy]

Yes, I am responding to your post.


If you use the address to register the children, you should move in within 2 years.

This is my best guess.

Don’t gamble your children education. Not worth taking the risk.

Move in if you can. Notify the tenant your intentions. 2 years is sufficient.
Tenancy agreement normal is 1 + 1 year.

That’s why 2 years is the allowance period.

Correct me if i am wrong.

Jut hope the tenant do not have children applying for the same school in subsequent years.

I need to offload...


I know of someone who has applied for a popular school under Phase 2C and within 1km, using the address of her apartment that is currently being rented out. This school will definitely ballot within 1km!!

What's worse is she has no intention to move in there but rather is looking for another place nearby to the school but it may not be within 1km after all!! :shock:

What will you do if you knew of such cases? I'm sure this is not the first, nor last.

has been keeping track of this thread… nobody seem interestd in bedok school… as at 5pm, for red swastika, there are 72 applicants for 38 vanancy… haiz…

Actually, my impression is that many ppl are probably doing such things (buy a place within 1km of good school and rent it out). Then they use the address for P1 registration eg. they get a tenant with no kids so not likely to register.


I believe alot of people got away with that too unless there is a whistle blower. Personally, i feel that MOE has not come across hard enough on these people (who deprive other genuine case a chance in the school) so people are not really "worried’ that it will happen to them and would take the risk.
