Hi MEL professionals, may I seek your assistance with the newest information about the comprehensive social security assistance scheme? Do you know how much the recipients aged 65 or above can get from this scheme currently?

My pleasure.

That’s very kind of you for such a detailed reply.

Older adults aged 65 or above who are able-bodied, or 50% disabled will get $3,815 if he/she is single, or $3,590 if they have a family. And those who are 100% disabled will get $4,610 and $4,075 respectively while those requiring constant attendance get $6,485 and $ 5,945 respectively.
