Singapore Expats

Hi everyone

I'd like to get your opinion on what are my chances of getting a PR under the following circumstances:

• Korean male, single, age mid-20s

• Stayed in Singapore for 10+ years since secondary

• Graduated from NTU in 2018 with Engineering degree, worked slightly more than 1 year with EP

• Working in semiconductor industry as an engineer: $3000+ basic salary, $4000+ inclusive of allowance

• Average monthly take-home salary including overtime, benefits: $5000+

• Never offered or applied for PR previously during my education

For personal reasons, I am applying for PR now despite recommendations of waiting for a few NOAs. Still, I'd like to hear your opinion on the chances of success before I submit my application. Thank you all for your time and have a nice day.

Were you invited to apply for PR previously? If you were but you didn't apply back then, you have almost zero chance because they think you tried to evade NS

I did not receive any invitations or offers for PR. It is perhaps because I studied in an International School until JC, as I heard my peers in local secondary school received the invitation around that time.

pretty low unless your Chinese-Korean ethnicity.

When you say Chinese-Korean, you mean like one of my parents being from China?

<5%, because you are not going to follow their guidelines
