QUOTE(darrenboy @ Feb 14 2016, 11:58 PM) How do you guys answer this question - Why do you want to come to work in Singapore? Just want to get some feedback. TQ. If i didn't hear the word 'money' amongs all the flowery reasons, i will straight dump the resumè in the dustbin.

QUOTE(harrychoo @ Mar 3 2016, 04:11 PM) filing tax time, if i got spouse and children stay in msia, can i get deduction for spouse (2k) and children (4k each)? Just go to IRAS website and read the requirements for tax relief carefully. The penalty, if caught providing false information with the purpose of evading tax is heavy. On a separate note, if your wife annual salary > S$4k equivalent, then not qualify already.

QUOTE(vincentleong @ Mar 5 2016, 11:47 AM) Hey guys and gals, quick question. What do I need in terms of documents to drive into Singapore for an interview, apart from a passport? Thanks much in advance for your advice. Edit: I should make clear this is about documents for the car. I read on LTA that the following are needed: 1. Road tax disc 2. Insurance policy (I renewed online, would a printout of the digital certificate do?) 3. Autopass card (I gathered this can be purchased on-the-spot at the checkpoint?) 4. In-vehicle unit (also mentioned can be rented at the checkpoint?) Are these all that is needed? Thanks. 1. Yes 2. Not required 3. Yes 4. Not required. Just pay s$5 per day on the day(s) you entered Restricted Zone thru autopass when you exit Sg This post has been edited by Mackiddo: Mar 5 2016, 01:04 PM

QUOTE(chickenessence @ Apr 11 2016, 12:19 AM) Has anyone tried bringing desktop CPU through custom? Any problem doing that? Any tax issue or privated window OS issues? how does a privated WindowsOS looks like? Highly customized for your own private needs?  Joke aside, no one can advice you on bringing illegal stuff / copyright material into Sg. then again, if you willing to take the risk, then by all means ....

You can write in to your Commanding Officer if you got his email. Can seek for his advice. Well, I have written a successful NS deferment later for one of my colleague before but that's for reservist and for 6 moths only. Heard it's pretty hard to get,
