Response From IRAS about Seller's Stamp Duty (SSD)

So, my conversations with IRAS has been concluded recently. Needless to say, IRAS will not waive my SSD or even reduce the amount. You can read the full exchange below. To sum it up from my perspective, IRAS says they have no legal power to do anything. Wow... it must be great being IRAS.  ************** EMAIL EXCHANGE WITH IRAS ************* From:  IRAS - eStamp < eStamp@iras.gov.sg > Date:  Thursday, 20 April 2017 at 2:21 PM To: <Nickleman> Cc:  Subject:  RE: Request for exemption from Sellers' Stamp Duty Dear Mr ** We refer to your email of 03 April 2017.
