jasch 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2007 (edited) Paiseh my mistake, the adjustion come in when u r 50 (from 14.5% to 10.5%)Details here, http://mycpf.cpf.gov.sg/Members/Gen-Info/C...es/ContriRa.htmFrom wat i understand.. the rate of cpf contribution into ordinary account is different below age 35 and above age 35. There will be more cpf contribution into ordinary account for ppl that are age 35 and below.Tink you sld take this into consideration as our mthly installment can only be deducted from the ordinary account so we cannot take the full contribution of 34.5% into consideration or else you will eventually fall short of CPF in your ordinary account and have to pay in cash when that happen. Hope this is useful Yes I know ***** is not the cheapest and they admitted that. They assured me that it is because of the materials they use, ie they wont use cheap hollow wood for their carpentry, the study desk they are making for me has 3 iron rods that will take over 100kg.If you ask them, their warranty is also pretty good. They quotated me 25k at 1st with the understanding that there's things which I can cut.So we cut here and there and narrow down to abt 18k.I basically redo the living room, masterbedroom and studyroomMy Id quote me 28k for the reno leh..but maybe i really got a lot of carpentary ba.. so ex.. got to tink is there any other things that i can take out so the reno cost will nto be so xiong Btw.. for those that already gone thru their banquet hor.. any comments on is grand copthorne waterfront better or marina mandarinh better har ?

I knw that waterfront lvl2 ballroom have a nice view of the garden. Parking for your guest shldn't be a problem at waterfront unlike Marina where it shared with the shoppers at marina/suntec area. Of course most impt is to fit your budget... hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
