AWARE is conducting a new survey on low-income self-employed persons in Singapore, about the effects of COVID-19 and their experiences applying for government assistance.

To be eligible for this survey:
  • You must be female.
  • You must be self-employed/freelancing. (If you are not sure whether you qualify as self-employed, please also sign up.)
  • You must have a monthly household income of under $650 per capita.
  • You plan to apply for, have already applied for (and are waiting to hear back about), or are unsure if you are eligible for the Self-employed Person Income Relief Scheme (SIRS).

Please do not sign up to be a respondent if you already received notification from the Government that you will be receiving a SIRS payout.

If you satisfy the criteria above, please email Ning Qian (advocacy@aware.org.sg) with your name and your phone number to sign up.

Successful survey respondents will receive $20 as a token of appreciation.
