According to this change, even the S-Pass must get $4K a month to sponsor for his/her spouse?

I wonder how a person with $4K/month can be an S-Pass holder?

The policy becomes more and more strictly. :mad:

It depend on the contract. Usually, a few contracts keep you not to re-let the property or find someone to take over, if your contract is not mention about this you're able to get someone.

However, if you have agent, contact them to solve the solution, that's better way.

Pretty sure they can, since the example I know of is an Indonesian friend (PR) who extended his sister. Indonesian is ASEAN, so unless it gets special rules for being so close? Thank you. However, your example case is Indonesian extended for his sister, that's meant extended for family, my case is ...

3K is my basic only, if include the bonus and commission, as I asked some colleges, more than that. MOM doesnt' give a hoot about "COMMISSION" and "BONUS" and "ALLOWANCES" - since they are not given you will get them .. They only consider Basic Salary. Thank you, I read this policy before, thus i a...

Ah, why don't you say so earlier? Yup, this is the part where EP makes a distinction from SPass. I guess the only recourse here is to work hard and hope to earn more to break far from that salary barrier. Just a side question but I find it related to MOM's decision-making pattern, if you don't mind...

Thanks all you guys who cared about my post. In the beginning, I am not concern much about the Pass until I found out that S-P is not able to self-sponsor for Dependant Pass, only E-P can. I want to bring my wife here, but my company is not willing to sponsor for my DP (I think there's no company wi...

Thanks for your answer. I am not a job hopper, I am quite loyalty. As I mention above, because the previous company was restructure, it stopped working with a whole department, so, there's only 5 people there (after I left, only 4), 2 Singaporeans, 3 foreigners, I was in another department, but I wa...

Trying again will only work if your circumstances have sufficiently changed in ways that affect MoM's decision. Just saying "Please, look at it again" will not get any different result - MoM's decision is final. (In addition: Only your employer can apply or appeal, not you!) What sufficient :o? Do ...
