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

To be honest thats not a factor at all. Worrying about whether my son or daughter will come back to Singapore in 15-20-30 years time and want to be a PR is just not a consideration for me at all. We've been told so much incorrect information. We were told once you decline local school, your PR will ...

Why is it 'amazing' news?

why are you so bitter? can't people find some happiness in these otherwise troubling times?

It may well show. This is why people like myself, before I retired March a year ago, always instructed my HR clerk to do a check at least once a month of all our work pass holders (WP, S & EP) as this would tell us if an employee has/had a pending application for a work pass (it will not indicate w...

I'm currently in Singapore and changing employers - new company applied for EP, approved on the 6th working day. Now we are waiting for the DPs (previously DP took 1 day but this time already 2 working days so far)
