Just wanted to chime in here. 2nd time applying, just past 6 months start of this week. No sharp rejection as I checked today still pending. I was in a bar last week and there were applications from various walks of life all pending. they dated Aug, Sept, Oct, Nov '17. I have not seen any 6 months s...

SMS, that's roughly what I had been thinking but you hit the nail on the head by saying not trying will confirm its a No as where trying might give a slither of a yes.

Thanks for your input, I think trying to chance wife's race might cause more hassle than its worth.

I feel it is better to apply after you are on EP for a while (atleast 6+ months after you change from your PEP). Just my 2 cents, if some major part of the details that you provided earlier, is suddenly changing in the second application, it is better to explain to them on why you are changing that...

I guess that you have made up your mind to apply and just wanted us to say yes-please apply? because if u read my reply earlier I said it would be better to apply after 4-5 years, but you say that you will be completing 5 years after the 6 month wait after submitting the application. Is it better t...

When was your last rejection? You have not provided any details about it. It will be good if u have stayed in SG for 4-5 years in total and then apply again. Also, it is good to wait for 1.5-2 years before you reapply for the PR after the rejection date. Hi SF, Last application was Aug '12, rejecti...

Myself and my wife are in the process of adding our first child to our family. We came to Singapore from Hong Kong in May 2010 and I was on EP for first year then switched to PEP. I'm now thinking I would like to start the process for applying to go PR as I would like to confirm this as my home and...

I think someone stated it above:

Lay baby down on bed take 100 pictures

I then went to this site for easy passport picture making:

On your rejection was you invited to apply again?

I was not

First applications for PR are often rejected. It is the norm rather than the exception. I am surprised no one has told you this before. For PR they want you to apply as a family and will no longer accept single applications if you are a member of a family. Remember the NS liability comes in at age ...

IF you're going to wallow in regret and incriminations... you'll be worse off. I'm STUCK in Singapore and I can tell you of at least half a dozen places better to do. The Aussie cut off is actually higher - 45 now I believe and if you have in demand skills even higher. No wallow, I just needed a da...

Let it go and look for greener pastures. I'll let it go but don't really want to look for greener pastures we like it here, that was kind of the reason to go for PR in the first place. i got 4 years before the big 40 which seems to be the sell by date for people looking to go to Aussie, who knows w...

this is all i got. trying hard not to be bit upset by it but with he way things are nowadays its to be expected i guess.

Dear all, I thought I would come back and give you an update as this week i finally heard back from the ICA. Dear Mr & Mrs xxxxx Thanks for spending a few hours filling paper work, don't bother doing it again. ICA I'm summarizing a bit, but application rejected no offer to apply again. I guess i wil...

Hi This might have been answered elsewhere but I couldn't find a specific question that was the same. Our baby is due to be born in May. Father holds British Citizenship and Mother is an American Citizen. I've got a few questions below which I still can't figure out. I gather it won't have Singapor...

Just wanted to give an update to the community here: Applied in September 2012 Status recently updated to "Approved" in iEnquiry How long typically does it take before we receive the official paperwork? Thanks for the very good information everyone provided on this forum, it's been very useful. Gon...
