It can take as fast as 1 day to approve. If unlucky and they pick you to do some background check, can take up to 1 or 2 months

Hmm..has your work pass been approved and issued? If not approved, then the company has to withdraw it.

How did they manage to apply it for you? You would have to fill in the form and sign.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to ask those who have submitted their PR Application.

One of the documents requested was : Testimonials from previous employer stating the nature and duration of employment and also the last drawn basic salary

Is that a must to submit that? Need to get the letter from all previous employers even if it's in Malaysia?

Hope to clarify this. Thanks!

Thanks crazy25kid.

It's illegal to work with a social visit pass. The company must get a work pass for you.

Hi all, I'll be submitting my Pr application soon.
Just wanted to confirm if I need to translate any of my documents to English? Like Malaysian birth cert?

Appreciate any advice on this. Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification!

I just received my driving license.

You can first go book basic theory test from the driving center (usually waiting time abt 3-4 months). Then go JPJ to get your extract (extract cannot be more than 6 months when you apply for conversion). At JPJ you need to fill up form and state reason why you want the extract. If you state that you want to convert to Sg license, they will punch a hole in your Msia license making it invalid.
After you pass you BTT, you can apply for Sg license conversion.

Ya, that's what i was thinking too! If they punch a hole then you can't drive back.

Actually it depends on the JPJ branch. My hometown branch required me to be there to get the extract. Cannot get on behalf.

My license also didn't get punched

Anyone driving back to Malaysia for CNY?

What's your take on the jam at the causeway?

They are not allowed to mention preferred nationality (unless "Only Singaporeans").
You can try applying for the job, or call them to ask if it's open to foreigners.

Hey guys,

Want to check with those who submitted PR before.

What if after you've submitted your documents (and still processing), and you changed your job?
What are the documents/info that we need to send to ICA to update them?

Appreciate any feedback.
Thanks!

Thanks guys.

So i get the new company to fill up the Annex A (PR submission employer section) and i also submit the new EP and offer letter (LOA) to ICA.
Should be enough right?

I have a 2 year contract with Starhub. Signed their mobile, broadband and cable TV plan.
It has been over 1 year now and i don't face any issues. Except for that 1 time the cable tv was down for 1 day.
So far i'm happy with it.

Maybe it depends on your location?

Did you check with them if your company gets any discount? Some can get 10% - 30% off monthly bills each month.
Can just ask the customer service to check for you.
