What are some reasons that could lead to my HFE application being rejected

Your HDB Flat Eligibility (HFE) application in Singapore can be rejected for several common reasons:

- Income exceeds eligibility criteria: If your total household income is above the income ceiling set for the particular HDB flat type or scheme you are applying for, your application may be rejected.
- Citizenship or family nucleus requirements not met: At least one applicant must be a Singapore Citizen, and your family nucleus must meet HDB's eligibility conditions (e.g., married couple, family, or qualifying singles).
- Ownership of other properties: Owning or disposing of private property locally or overseas within a specified period (usually 30 months before the application) may disqualify you from applying for a new flat.
- Previous housing subsidies: If you or your co-applicants have received more than the allowed number of housing subsidies, you may not be eligible for further HDB grants or purchases.
- Incomplete or inaccurate documentation: Failure to submit all required documents or providing incorrect information can result in rejection.
- Uncleared financial obligations: Outstanding payments to HDB or other government agencies may affect your eligibility.

If your HFE application is rejected, review the official rejection notice for the specific reasons and rectify any issues before applying again.
