Thanks for your responses SMS and sameenali. It does seem like it is a NUS policy that as a "Non-Graduating Exchange International Student" I cannot work.

Looks like I can't go to uni here!

Studying on an EP

Can I study on an EP? I was told this morning by NUS that they won't accept me if I continue to hold an EP, I would have to change over to a Student Pass.

Is this a NUS policy or a general policy? Is it possible to work and study on an EP? Is it possible to work and study on a Student Pass?

Thanks!

Car sharing schemes

Has anyone had any experience with car sharing schemes? How did it go? Can you ever not get a car?

I am thinking of going with KahShare or Whizzcar. Did I miss any others? Car Coop's website doesn't seem to work anymore.

Insurance as insurance cover or as a back up to apply for EP Pass or what ?
Health insurance. Apparently we can't get couple cover without this letter.

Letter from Australian High Comm to certify relationship

Hi,

I need a letter for my partner from the Australian High Commission to certify that our relationship is long term. She already has a LTVP but we need this for insurance. Any one had any luck? Any advice?

Just moved into The Jade last sunday. So far really enjoying the facilities and Bukit Batok. I face away from the MRT so don't really notice the noise of the train but the aircon on the roof of West Mall is quite noisy! Still getting used to it as my apartment in Australia was very, very quiet! Ther...

Congratulations!

Try http://www.qreport.com.au - was given to me by my jeweller. I have also heard that Chubb is very good.

We use our home and contents insurance in Australia (GIO) which gives 30 days coverage for each trip anywhere in the world + coverage in A & NZ.

Thanks a lot. So if she wants to get paid in Singapore is it best to form a company and get an Entrepass?

Freelancing on LTVP

My partner and I are moving to Singapore very soon. She works for two main clients in Australia and South America. She will be on a Long Term Visit Pass. Can she still work for these two clients? What are the tax implications?
