pretty low unless your Chinese-Korean ethnicity.

When you say Chinese-Korean, you mean like one of my parents being from China?

He meant if you have Chinese as race in your Birth Certificate

Were you invited to apply for PR previously? If you were but you didn't apply back then, you have almost zero chance because they think you tried to evade NS

^^^This! Always have a Plan B and the knowledge that it might not be approved. Then go on about your life as per normal. If at some point in the future they should send you a letter saying you have been given an IPA. Then celebrate OR turn it down. But don't let it rule your lives (which is what mo...

I don't see how your PR application can fail..

I just read most of PR applicant thread. And yes theres no pattern. Its just pure luck i guess? Only ica officer and god know. Imo luck does not do anything here. You will your PR if: - you are of a favorable race, i.e. chinese malaysian/indonesian - you married a Singaporean and had a kid with you...

I'm being honest. I advise you to give up on it if you are not Malaysian/Indonesian. Start looking for better opportunities in other countries. Many of my friends went to Canada/Australia and they were all happy.

They care more about your m...

Yes, you are right, I should have not applied. If it fails this time, I will not apply again.

Indeed, I'm wondering the other way round. Is there such thing like a fast approval or slow rejection? If so, this is like kind of a prolonging pain for the un-favored ones

I failed 2 times before. Submitted again on 18/9/17. It's still pending too. yea i also failed 2 times, and previously also only 3months they reject straightaway.. and the one i applied on early oct2017 was my 3rd attempt. how many NOA have you gotten? seems like there is some pattern which im not ...
