U should check with your local CPF department...


Even though u are working overseas, you would still be entitle to CPF deduction as this is mandatory for every working adults and subjected to employment law act....You need to inform your local department and submit some documents for them for approval on behalf of your overseas company....

Hihi, I do not think that there is CPF contribution nor any income tax for people earning income outside Singapore...I used to be working in IRAS, as far as i know there shouldn't be. You will only be taxable if the income source come from Singapore or it is from a Singapore company based in other country. In this case, income source is from UAE. NO tax!!! As for CPF, i do not think Etihad would be required to give us employer CPF contribution as well since it is not a Singapore or Singapore based company. But if you want i think you can contribute CPF on your own but it will be without the employer CPF contribution.

Regarding the Etihad interview, i did not rec the slip of paper during the initial screening on Sat but i still rec the email invitation to the final interview. NOt sure if i wanna go cos they have stated tat one of the requirement is CLEAN N EVEN TEETH..mine is crooked...but weird though...i have told the Etihad ppl when they call me before sending me the email invitation, i told them i did not rec the white slip of paper on the screening day...but still they email me.... wonder if they just email me to fulfil their quota of at least how many ppl...haiz....

[rinnuwatanabe]

My dear Jolene dun worry ya. im sure u will get in, i dun think i will make it through trust me...we'll c... mark my words..U will get in!!!!

[HamsterMama]

"Yikes..clean and even teeth..how bout scars??Hmm...or birthmarks...I guess all cabin crew requirements are all standard eh..sigh...even white teeth and no scars on hands and legs.."

i think scar on hands should be ok de la.. anyway their uniform is long sleeve de...

legs wise i dun know...

but i dun think they are as strict as SQ in terms of appearance lo...

[rinnuwatanabe]

Frankly speaking about the [TEETH THREADS]
in ma life ive never ever heard it before..Never! But this time even me too were surprised!! But thanks god that at least ma braces had been taken off since 3yrs ago! ahaha! But the matter is now bout ma fren Jolene, for forbidden sake why do they really need a perfect white teeth and for scar shudn't be a problem if it still can be sealed or u can just put it some foundation on it and make it even... try it lol...u wont know i dun think they will look thoroughly check trough every part of ya body rite.... hmm~~

Yup i got through for the previous recruitment and waiting to fly off to abudahbi tis weeknd.....im positively sure that there will be more then 100 hopefuls for the final interview....regarding cpf contribution....UAE is a tax free payment country so no cpf deduction but u can do self contribution if u wish to via the singapore cpf website....regarding the interview process....there will be 3 stages of elimination....and it will all hapen during a day....so to you alll....Best of luck....and dat during my recruitment day..only 12 of us got through in the end 2 guys and 10 gals....

[rinnuwatanabe]

Hey danilee how long it takes to finalised the procesS? i mean u get to sign in the contract with them on the day itslf? or waiting for call again??

[Danilee]

actually ....once u cleared everything...they will give u a form to fill, to get you cleared with the UAE govt for employment visa purposes...and then u will have to wait for their call saying that they will email you the contract offer....where u have to sign and email back to them ...and after that u have to proceed with ur medical here in singapore ....once u submit ur medical back to them they will get it screen and if everything goes well they will call u ...saying hey u r fit to fly welcome to Etihad...yahhh and u wait for them to send u , ur e-ticket....all this will take arnd 2mthns or so....my advice to u do not get excited if u receive ur first call and tender ur current job immediately...as u will end up slacking like a month at home doing nothing and just waititng for the e--ticket.....btw all the 12 of my batch mates that got thrgh till the end were given the contract,,,,so if u made it to the final cut..it means that u r already safe and secure...Best of LUCK

[rinnuwatanabe]

u mean Final? they will still elaminate pple rite? till the 3rd stage of the interview? hmm...

By the way thanks ya Danilee....
For the Advice

[Danilee]

final as in if u cleared all the stages of ellimination on that day.....

[rinnuwatanabe]
