I've been on LYN for YEARS and only now know how to use multi quote ... lol.


nolah brother, where got so many free rooms to make a dedicated hifi room? i play my ps3 in the living room, which is right next to the corridor ... and also right next to my neighbour's living room.


... my unit, towards the right is lift and staircase so it's fine ... but the left side neighbour's living room is super near. I suppose I should tell her to holler at me if I get too loud, then gradually increase the volume until she screams ... then at least I'll know how loud is "too loud"

on a side note, do you buy/sell second hand games? in KL i used to buy new then sell on LYN's garagesales, wonder what's the best way to do that here. hardwarezone forums?


wah, so in that one year if cannot find job, you still need to stay here, pay rental, pay for your food, etc etc? well ... scholarship ... like that lor

I need input from fellow forummers, just got my PR approved, but am working in Vietnam now. so I want to know what is the procedure needed and how many days I need to come back to Singapore for the application.

Thanks.

Only one day, make an appointment first, then come on the day to complete the procedure, your ic can be collect in next 2 weeks~2 month

Hmmm, thanks for the input. Once the letter send to my aunt house then I will get my aunt to check for me, as currently based in Vietnam.

1.Seantang
2.Mackiddo
3.kockroach

Any questions, you can ask them here.....

congratulation!

Can't remember mine as it was long ago, maybe just go ICA and collect IC and REP at the counter.

For my kid, book appointment online to complete the formalities. On that day, wait for your turn at ICA level 5 and they call you to an interview room. sign on some doc, finger print then collect your IC and REP. 30min to 1 hr done.

you may want to setup your Singpass, CPF DPS nomination, medisave insurace, update IRAS tax rebate if any, ICA access card etc..
so one day for all these will be good.


ps: oh.. you just got the letter of approval ha... ok then want I said above is after you complate all the ICA paperworks.

i thought we got a "big four?" 4th member alaskanbunny. 4 heavenly stars of LYN.

Actually no problem what. It's only a problem if the chap wants to be released from his bond. But he doesn't. He actually wants to work in SG. Ideally, if the bond holder (ie. govt?) can find him a job so that he can fulfil his bond, so much the better.

Havent got the letter actually, just checked online this morning. Thanks though. I've had Singpass long ago when I first came here working.

omg, i din know u were earning SGD 22k a month

next outing the bill is on you then.

by the way, i think its a good time to apply for PR for those who wants it. coz i feel that the gov is opening up the PR slots d.

kockroach, grats wor! How long was the wait?

Haha the 'chap' you're referring to is actually a she

You're right, in a way having the bond with Singapore sort of guarantees that my employment pass won't get rejected when I apply for a job but 3 years does tie me down because may not want to work in Singapore that long.

The Ministry of Education gave the tuition grant, is not a scholarship, we didn't even need to apply for it, it's granted, don't even get a chance to reject it!
They're good in tying ppl who they foresee may be potential 'talents' Sad to say, most of us are really just average

Speaking of working, 3 years bond is actually relatively short if you're looking at 20 years of career. Anyway time flies and most of us here are like: Meh, I've been here for x years already. Didn't even realize it.

Hehe...going to submit my form this friday.
Not sure why submitting a form needs an appointment too.

need to

Applied on 1st of June. Do note that my appeal was rejected when I terminate my employment pass last year (change company).

Yay, this greatly improves our female to male ratio (in this thread)! So what are the numbers now? Like uh .... 3 females and >9000 guys?

btw if any of you like to try new things and you've never tried Mad Jack Cafe ... don't try it. Food sucks and isn't cheap enough to appeal on the 'value for money' side.

Meaning this is your 2nd application? And they took only 2 months plus to approve?

yes.

Eh, I also don't earn $22K a month leh.

I'm also cee mah luk tou (sasame seed green bean) who spends more than he should and earns less than you'd think.

That new guy who came up with this Big3 thing... Rexona.., that's the real taiko. Genuine expatriate banker leh.
