Hi guys, want to ask if the company can offer me SGD 4000 above but Ido not have any diploma or degree but only Professional Cert. Do I eligible to apply EP? or just S Pass?
*
in such a case, what did you put in your 'Highest Education' column ? Is Professional Cert counted as education level ?

Nope, you won't be able to get your 15% back. The rule is very clear. If you have physical presence in SG (working/visiting etc.) for more than 183 days in a calendar year, you get to claim your 15% back as a resident. 1 day lesser, Singapore says thank you for your contribution.

Good luck.

Sorry if I didn't add this, yes, I'll work more than 183 days for sure and if I leave Singapore I can claim it back right?
*
not the full 15%. Minus off the tax deduction based on your income bracket.

Hi all,
Newbie here...
I would like to know about the income tax / any other deductions in salary.
Lets say my monthly salary 3k, what will be deducted from it?
Or is the tax only payable one lump sum to IRAS before end of April?
*
you can choose to pay 1 lump sump or via giro interest free instalment at the end of the assessment year.

Bro, confirm? I called HDB council and they said no this morning, that's why I am like so stressed up over the house. You mind sharing your agent contact details with me to chat further? Appreciate it a lot man!

Normally singapore salary is deduct for CPF contribution which eligible for PR and citizen. Other than that, maybe some company got offer charity donation which allow you to make do income tax relief. This donation will be automatic deduct from your salary after you had agree with it during the offer letter signing.


Anyway, this is what i know from my current and past working company.
*
those are voluntary donations which must have your consent. I think what he's asking is compulsary deductions.

Is it normal for foreigner like us who work there in engineering field get bonded?
*
bonding is a no-no❌ unless it's a very good deal that your are getting or very poor market condition.
