1 month and 1 week? That's what I had hoped for!!! Why is it taking longer for me?? I am thinking of going to Singapore immediately after my LPR is granted. I know, 3 months is not too bad, but I can't help being apprehensive...

LPR

Thanks. In fact, I've applied for LPR. It's been about 6 weeks since I submitted; I've got no answer. I envy those who got their results in a month. Good luck to you, too.

BTW, does SMC normally notify you by email before ICA sends the result to you??

Re

Hey thanks,,, I know it takes up to 3 months, but in reality, I heard it takes a lot less. Can anyone share your own experience? Thanks.

PR application processing time

Hi, guys. I have applied for PR, and it's been about a month since I submitted the forms. I've heard that these days people get their pr approval within 4 to 6 weeks.. So, I'm a bit worried. Could you guys tell me how long it took for you to receive an APPROVAL or a REJECTION for your PR applicaton?...

Thanks, that clarifies it. I mistakenly thought I would need to separately apply for a 5yr re-entry permit. Cheers!

PR and Re-entry Permit

I know that when you apply for a Singapore PR, that means you're applying for an Entry Permit. But when your PR is approved, does ICA also give you a Re-entry Permit, in addition to the Entry Permit? or Do I need to separately apply for a Re-entry Permit after the approval?? If so, how long does it ...

Hi, Blaze. Yeah, definitely I'll let you know when I get an approval! BTW, you mentioned that I should fulfill the LPR requirements. What are they? I think the following are the only requirements? 1) hold tertiary qualifications or have other outstanding merits AND 2) are not more than 50 years of a...

Landed PR- Fees?

Hi, I am going to apply for this Landed PR scheme. and an immigration consulting company asked me for a fee of S$4,500. I think this figure is a bit too high; I expected something like ~S$2,000. What do you think? Am I being ripped off? Also, will hiring an agency increase my chance of getting a PR?...
