SINGAPORE EXPATS FORUM
Singapore Expat Forum and Message Board for Expats in Singapore & Expatriates Relocating to Singapore

Hi and thank you! I am aware of the changes you are mentioning in your post, but my understanding is that as long as one party is a resident (even with an EP like mine), it is enough that one party can be in Singapore for longer than 31 days to be allowed to marry.

Good Afternoon to everyone. I was years away from this forum - I am glad to be back even though I was not particularly active in earlier times. I am not sure a big intro is needed considering the topic. However in the last 6 years I have been in Singapore about 4 and an half - changing 3 company. (I...

Thanks a lot! Yes, effectively I was away from Singapore from July to basically end of November, with the employment pass cancelled only in the beginning of October (due to some organisational issues). In the meanwhile I was spending about 7 days a month in Singapore and 23 days in China, and still ...

Good evening to everyone, I have an enquiry where I would love to hear the opinion from the most "experienced" on the forum. In 2015/2016, I have been transferred by my company from Europe to Singapore. At the time I had an EP, the salary was 100.000SGD/year and up to 15.000 of annual bonus. (115.00...

Agree with Bro. Just to quote you an example: a former colleague of mine under EP had is EP cancelled by the company since he went on a 12 months work transfer. Due to the political situation of the place where he was sent, the company has decided to bring him back and they basically re-applied for ...

Great, thanks a lot.

Will be going there next week to sort this out unless anything changes in the last few days.

Hello, Trying to keep this simple. 1. My company has relocated me for a 12-24 months post outside Singapore. Since the starting date of my new employment was dependant on the second-country visa application, once the application was approved I left the Singapore branch, joined the second branch of m...

Hello everyone, I have a very tricky situation to expose. My HR is completely useless in this regard, unfortunately. My company has proposed me a transfer from Singapore to China. I have accepted the offer today, and it is going to take about 6 to 8 weeks to complete the paperwork for the transfer. ...

Hello Guys, I finally decided to apply PR. I will be doing it in a 2-3 months time-frame tops, once I will be able to collect all the documents. An intro on me: - Age, Status, Sex: 27, Single, Male - In Singapore for approximately 2 years, EP holder; - European - Sector: IT/Telco - Salary: I was wor...

Hello there! After almost 18 months in Singapore, I have decided to change job. I managed to land a new one, applied for my EP on the 12th of December and got it approved around the 24. Being myself on holiday at that time, I resigned only today, and my employer told me that my current EP will be ca...

This is what I heard too, I think that this is a very delicate topic since nobody really knows how the things work.
So I would agree to stick with the official replies , it can take long, as simple as that.

It is my first EP, but I am European and it seems this matters.

Without saying to much, I can tell you that the 14 days minimum processing time from May is an in-accurate information. I applied for my E-Pass in May and it took 3 days to get the Approval. Every case is different as someone said, and I believe that there are many things considered that we are not ...

Here the template: Priorities: - your budget: 3000SGD - your workplace/s: Raffles Place - the size and/or type of property that you are seeking: 2 bedroom flat, condo with swimming pool and gym facilities - will you have a car here? No - proximity to transport required: No more than 5 minutes to a b...

I gave a look to that and that is why I think pricewise it is very good.
What do you think about the area considering my age etc..?
