Singapore Expats

Hi,

We are currently considering the best approach to take for applying for Singapore Citizenship.

We were blessed with newborn this month, and we are working on getting his Indian documents and passport. Post that wife will apply for his LTVP. Baby was delivered in Singapore.

Our question is:
A. Should wife apply for SC again with newborn included in application together? or
B. Should wife apply for PR for newborn and consider SC applications in future?

Along with this, planning to submit Husband's PR application again soon.

Profile details about us below.

Your username fits. You seem to be in a big hurry. What’s your rush? It seems like you are trying to shortcut the system, which usually never works (unless you are a rare talent/highly desired).

Normal path to citizenship: EP -> PR -> SC .

Your wife has been fortunate enough to get PR… the logical thing to do is first get the other family members on PR via FTS… then after a couple of years pass, apply for SC as a family.

If you’re lucky, you’ll all be citizens before Junior goes through the P1 exercise.
