Hi guys, another update from my post. In September 2020, I received an email from ICA asking for additional info - the CV of my family members. In early November 2020, my PR was approved. Thank you everybody for your advices earlier! :) Cheers! Congrats @thecheekygirl! My PR application is pending ...

Hi Madina, OK thank you for your feedback and sorry to hear your outcome was not successful. Hope you get another chance!

Hi @ferth, thanks for the advice and well wishes. Will keep this forum updated on any news. Cheers.

Understand and thanks for the feedback. Would reaching out to ICA for a status update have any negative impact?

Yes it has been a year. I did not receive any letter informing me of a delay in processing but ICA did contact me in June 2020 to request for CV of family, which I provided. Since then, haven't heard any update.

I applied in October 2019 and also pending.

Given the stated processing time is 4-6 months, has anyone tried writing to ICA before to request for an update?

It’s a requirement to submit a declaration granting ICA the right to check your IRAS statements... doesn’t this mean they can check the amount of tax you are paying and can see if you’ve had a salary increment?
