The income and asset limits of the Working Family Allowance (WFA) Scheme for 2026-27 have been announced.  

In addition, if the Appropriation Bill 2026 is passed by the Legislative Council, the Government will, as proposed in the 2026-27 Budget, disburse a one-off extra allowance to WFA households.  The extra allowance is equal to the average monthly allowance in approved months in a recipient’s most recent WFA application submitted within the applicable period and eventually approved.  Please click here to learn more.
