Frankly not surprised that its pending for so long especially as yours is a complex case. Obviously your application cannot be taken just on its own merit but consider other factors. Lets start with your past, surely you came here with your family when you were young - what is their status, which co...

Sorry to hear, Well basically any rejection letter will not say much, except that they have carefully considered the application. When the criteria for success is not made known, it hardly makes sense to divulge the exact reason(s) for rejection. This is to ensure ppl dont try to game the system. Fo...

MC processing times and circumstances absolutely cannot be a benchmark for others.

Overall this works for both one wants them out and the other happy to shore...

"It's never been any secret but it was unusual that it was openly noted in Parliament" - agree, even i thought the same, very unusual to mention it specifically, though it was an open secret. Maybe with the pressure from oppo on population, they wanted to set the record. Personally always thot that ...

Hi, I need some advice. I am a PR who is married to a singaporean wife. We have bought a HDB flat together. I am the major contributor for the flat, even though she works. What will happen to the house, if I renounce my PR? Let me try to ans this in a chronology logical way, as this seems complicat...

This person though did NS, if not enough skill and no chance for gainful employment, how he support himself. (Dont just think that everyone do NS can sure get gain...

Your race is critical here. If you China Indonesian you are ok. If you're Orang Asli type Indonesian well I'm surprised you got this far. In general this is a positive sign EXCEPT your hubby salary so low huh? "your hubby salary so low huh?" I would be a bit sensitive in the choice of words. Adlina...

Mr Goh was reported as saying that the government might approach ten percent of PRs in Singapore to take up citizenship and if they did not do so, their PR status would not be renewed . If not formally so, PR's are definitely positioned exclusively as the first stage of citizenship recruitment. Sin...

So basically 3 groups is C/M/I/Others (rojak). no offence, i like rojak though. Yes, I feel it’s beyond difficult because they look at each application case by ...
