N i hv doubts on da followin, can any1 assist?
5A: Education Details - Period of study
I do not remember the exact date, am i supposed to put 1st of the month?

PART 7 – APPLICANT’S EMPLOYMENT DETAILS - Period (DD-MM-YYYY)
As it's stated clearly, Period (DD-MM-YYYY) is required. But some of the part time jobs, i may not remember the exact date i started.
Would that be a problem if i just put the year and month?

I would like to clarify on the Life Insurance tax relief. Anyone done it before? I have sent it to IRAS waiting for their reply.

Any idea which are the correct one?

- Claim 7% of capital sum insured / actual premium paid (whichever lesser) for life insurance if policy was bought in your name or your wife’s name. Premiums paid for insurance policy on your child’s life are not allowable.
In the quick guide, it mentioned the above.

- The amount of relief you may claim must not be more than 7% of the insured value of your life or your wife's life.
When filling, in the guide information, it shows the above, not the amount premium paid or whichever lesser.

I do not have any CPF contribution.

Noted with thanks. Now I got the confirmation. The quick guide when filling the form is confusing. 
Thanks again.

I completely opposite from you. My gf ask let me choose : 1) Go Singapore and forget about her or 2) Stay in msia wif her and together build our future. I weigh all my options and went to SG. I only live once and i'm sure gonna make full use of my youth before i settle down... but now single and lonely in SG. Haih...

hi guys, need some advice here. I am currently working in Singapore and holding spass. My company needs 2 months notice period. I just got unhappy with our management and have been thinking of leaving.
I have got few job offers since feb but none of them is able to apply spass/ep successfully for me. But lately i am so fed up with our management style and cant wait to leave. Do u guys think i should just tender my resignation and look for new job in this two months?
My concern is that i dont get approved for my spass. but at the same time, not alot companies would wait for 2 months, somemore if i fail getting a pass, they r unwilling to take extra 3 weeks to appeal for me.
It really puts me in a difficult situation, I want to leave but I cannot leave without securing my future...

Anybody knows how much on average to install a broadband connection in a room in Singapore?

renovation and construction. Found few jobs but my spass/ep kept getting rejected.

but the calling time is very limited. 120min i presume? or less than 200 min free calling? With prepaid, i got 100sgd credit of calling singapore to singapore while having 28sgd for oversea call. Arent prepaid is better?

Does EP holder still need to apply access card in order to go in and out from singapore custom? Or the passport is able to do like those PR now?

EP holders no longer need to apply the access card for electronic clearance. EP holders can go to the fast lane for eletronic clearance by using their passport.

Yes! I am very sure. I am access card holder and wanted to go for card replacement. The officer said no need and I can use my passport for automated clearance. I tried it and it works! No joke.

But if you renew your passport, you need to update your passport first then.

Its certain for Ep holders.. As of end of 2009, all new EP applications have already got their fingers print and passport scanned into database before they get EP card.

Its been tested.. At woodlands, 2nd link checkpoints and also at airport. U can go thru singapore / Pr lane with the machine. Only use passport no need EP even easier

Hi All, I was wondering whether there is anybody who've heard of cases like this and how was the matter resolved.

1.) Tenancy agreement was signed with the landlord and I was supposed to move in 30th April 2011. Deposit of 1 month rental was given.
2.) On 28th April, the landlord backed out and cited ill family members as an issue and how he wanted to use the room for his ill family member.
3.) Fortunately, I managed to find another place to stay on 30th April 2011 itself and my company allowed me to stay at the corporate hotel in the meantime.
4.) The 1st landlord till today has been fobbing me, his agent and my agent off with excuses that he is in tight financial constraints and that he requires more time to return my deposit and his agent's commision fees.
5.) Yesterday, my agent, the landlord's agent and myself went to the police station to lodge a police report. According to the police, I should to to the Small Claims Court to resolve this issue.
6.) After that, we went to the 1st landlord's place and knocked on his door for 1/2 hour as we saw him hiding inside his house with all his windows open but he refused to see us.

I'll look into the Small Claims court but I'll like your opinions.

Thanks a bunch.

P.S Last week was my 1st week in Singapore and I already kena conned....... Looking on the bright side, at least I learn this lesson quickly.
