Hi, it doesn't matter. You may have heard from different people with different qualification are getting their PR application approved or rejected. For those who got their's approved, they don't care and for those who got rejected, they wouldn't know why are them being rejected. You can call up and make an appointment to appeal, but the result still subject vary. The criteria of accepting you as PR is non-disclose, so i think it's important to submit your application, and APPEAL if got rejected and do not wait for a duration then start apply again. Try to appeal first and get more information from the officer while waiting for re-applied. People may tell you, they're not working long enough and salary range is on the lower group, yet some of them got their application approved sucessfully, so it's like gambling to me but it allow you APPEAL, which providing much info and you could win in the second try. Just my 2 cents.

i believe there is no absolute cooling period but i would suggest you to call up ICA and check with them if you want a firm answer. Just as what i said, ICA is responsible for giving you an accurate answer, 3rd party like us are just giving out "ADVICE" which may or may not be precise.

First, the policy is change from time to time, so i suppose the criteria was changed from time to time as well. Unless you're working for them and know exactly all the criteria taken to consider one's application, what is the point doing the compilation?

Second, you work under certain party and you hold the responsibility for leaking out info to public, do you want somebody complain to your boss, hey i match all the criteria, why am i not be chosen? who is the one told you that you're the perfect candidate? Are you going to answer thes one as well ?

wow....have fun guys, if any of you going to jusco tebrau, there is one shop selling bkt and 黄酒鸡, which i think quite nice..

hi guys, finally i got my PR approved after rejected twice, seem like ICA start working after the GE is ended...

hi Aloong,

first application was oct 2009..so you do the math Holding EP currently.

To me, it doesn't really matter. As long as you fulfill the basic criteria and you can proceed to apply. Chances of being accepted are equal to all applicant that meeting the criteria, then after that is all depend on the one who approved your application. Imagine that there are a large pool of people is applying for it, lets say 1000 people is meeting the criteria but they have quota of about 500 people, would they look into the applicant background again or they just randomly choose? If they don't like your face and don't like you name, can they failed your application as well? Nobody know right? I would just say apply and wait for the result, if rejected just appeal and go for another round of application if it failed as well.

well..i hold the same status as your friend B but could you tell me why i got rejected 2 year back? I even see those people having same background, holding managerial post and with bigger salary and even with family....got rejected..... that's why i stress on the fact that as long as you matching the criteria, you can apply. The result will be unknown unless you done that. Of course they do some filtering but the pool of people matching criteria is much bigger that the quota, so what would they do next, are you sure the measure taken at this stage? If you're guessing you simply just mislead the people here. If you're saying ep and sp make a difference i have a good example which my colleague having sp & same salary range & apply at the same time but got it sucessfully while i got mine reject. Just my 2 cents.

Hi Ivanlmh,

Please do not get my point wrong, i know that process of PR application is being stricten since 2009 but the criteria used to filter the applicant is undisclosed so if you asking your friends info and used it to jedge why are them being accepted/rejected is totally nonsense since you're not in the position. So i didn't mention anything about quallification/backgroung/etc....

As a person responsible to yourself, one should always seek for continuous improvement and development, we don't improve ourself just to apply PR. Instead of improving qualification i will say improving capability having better opportunity, but we never know whether it gonna benefit us or not, and by how much?? None of us can provide that info right? My colleague tell me he can't buy a house now, so he will work hard and get more money, but the house prices is going up at the same time as well, so?

Things don't happen without doing any thing, assuming doesn't things done. I got mine, and wish all of you luck applying that

Hi Paranoid,

Upon submitting your application form, you will get a letter of acknowledgement and it state that you'll be informed result of application within 2 months time, if you do not get any letter of acceptance/rejection within 2 month, you may give ICA a call to check your application status. No reason is stated in the rejection letter and then time frame of re-apply may or may not stated in the letter. Perhaps you may want to make a call to inquire the appeal process and talk the officer why're you being rejected(if they want to tell you?)? IMO, appeal first before submitting second application.

Maybe you should try looking at the bus service? It seem a bit troublesome if you want to take MRT. You will need to switch from green to yellow line, if you're ok with that, or even you have your own transport, i guess it won't be a problem for you as well.

If you can't decide to give up your seat, more likely that you still feel that that're not senior enought yo have the seat from you. I will give up my seat to whoever that seem need it more than i do, you're like just feeling guilty for not letting the one who need it to have the seat or perhaps afraid yourself got posted up on STOMP?

don't worry...you will see the same promotion happening over and over... you just not going to miss opportunity to spend your money..

The trick is to spend (when you now draw 10K), the way you did when you were only drawing 2K. This is difficult to do, and not smart when it comes to food and time-saving transport... but for eg, you don't need to pay double the rental for a private condo when a HDB will do just fine.

Easier said than done. Me and all my friends tried this at one point or another in our career but all crash and burn our budget U need to be have a mind like a spartan!
