Recently applied in April 2025 and got rejected both daughter and my wife - very sad.. do you think the issue for my profile is mostly:

1. my wife and daughter - very much only in SG for roughly 1 year
2. no work for wife - do you think wife working help?
3. and should I consider applying first for my son (just himself may be with daughter) upon son born in SG ?

Appreciate any good inputs and experience :>

what's your age?

Apply again for the whole family after your son is born.

You were a PR since 2016. You married in 2022, had a daughter… but they only came to Singapore to join you in 2024? That gap, plus the short time on LTVP seem like the reasons why. Had they joined you from 2022, it would likely have been approved.

Your unborn son is not a factor now… nobody counts chickens before they hatch. But, once he is born, you will need to include him if you want any chance of success with PR for them.

Hi

Thanks for the kind advice - I am 37. Wife 36.

and yes - they joined me in 2024 because of pandemic situation.

Just wondering - Should I apply with my son first ? OR reapply together ?

[malcontent]

Every non-PR in your family (wife and all children) should apply together under your sponsorship (family ties scheme)… if that is what you are asking.

You apply for PR too soon for your wife & child as they only entered SG in 2024. Too short stay in SG. That's why rejected.

Wait for your son is born for a few months then re-apply for whole family.
