How to Count Waiting Time
-
The mechanism for determining the relative
priority for PRH allocation is adopted to
determine whether a PRH GA household has been
waiting for PRH for more than three years. In
other words, the mechanism is
based on the “G-number Equivalent Date”;
and if there is no “G-number Equivalent
Date”, the “Registration Date”.
-
The Registration Date of the PRH GA household
is stated on the
blue acknowledgement card
issued by HD upon registration of the PRH
application. If there are any subsequent
updates/changes and the PRH application
concerned is given a
G-number Equivalent Date,
this G-number Equivalent Date will be stated
on the
notification letter
issued by HD to the applicant.
-
An applicant household will be considered as
having met the requirement of “having been
waiting for PRH for more than three years”
from the first date of the calendar month in
which the household has waited for just more
than three years.

Application Guide of the Cash Allowance Trial
Scheme.
