Guys, checked my PR application today and it finally show approved!

Application date is 30NOV2015, my wife under my application and apply PR with me.

Just want to ask when i will receive the letter from ICA?

Will my wife get PR with me since the system just shown "Approved" means that all applicant success?

Thanks guys!

Intend to get citizen then jimat more!

For ppl who always go for business trip will get those miles easily, swipe hotel, meal, taxi and etc.. plus miles from flight.

Ship owner haha, all my company's ship support oil & gas, this industry facing disaster now
Bad time to work in this industry now

Congrats,

First, wait for the IPA letter, it will sent to your address (in PR application)

Second, mail the medishield declaration form (attached in letter) to CPF (https://www.cpf.gov.sg/Assets/members/Documents/FORM_MSLHD.pdf)

Third, wait for the acknowledgement letter from CPF (This might take two weeks or more, i still waiting until now i mailed on 9 JULY) After received, go book your PR formalities appointment via E-appointment (https://eappointment.ica.gov.sg/ibook/index.do)

Fourth, after book, go to complete medical checkup for HIV and X-RAY, give the EP152 form to your HR to prove you still working in current company (in PR application)

Last, go to ICA to complete your formalities... I havent reach here

hahaha, well said.

My case, start work in SG on April 2014, ROM in SG on NOV 2015, submit PR application (Spouse under my application, so two ppl applying) on NOV 2015, June 2016 approve.

I'm 26 YO and my wife 25 YO.

Rumors said, below factor will increase your chance:

1) Age: the younger the easier you get PR, singapore is facing ageing population issue cuz low birth rate... so they love young talent who can work long time to contribute SG economy and of course CPF

2) Married and spouse working in SG: The chance of you will build family in SG is very high, for your next generation future, and yes, singapore love baby, this will lead to first factor.

3) Qualification, salary, job industry, company: With good education(Degree), decent salary (able to feed family in SG), great job with good prospect (IT, engineer, development, research, medical and etc), good company (company with bad financial condition will affect because you are highly kena lay off or company shut down you will lose job, gov don't want to feed you)

4) Nationality, Race: people who are easier to adapt to SG culture will get PR easier. Malaysian (Chinese), Bruneian (Malay, Chinese), Indonesian (Chinese) are easier to get PR than Indian, Pinoy, Burmese, Vietnam, PRC and other third world country...

I am one of the guy who earn below 3300 and get EP (2014), and even get PR now.

WOW, glad that i'm not kena retrench and still get my bonus this month! Indeed the market in sg is become worst and worst, my friends are not getting bonus, AWS kena forfeit, no increment.....

Company just change the policy and remove AWS. My company also remove AWS during 2015... but lucky they divide it into 12 months and increment to our month salary.

For example (My company):

monthly salary is 3000, after AWS removed, 3000/12 = 250 will added to your monthly salary, become 3250..

Bad for new joining staff who doesn't entitled to AWS.

In his mind

1) You should appreciate me because i provided SG JOB for you, i give you opportunity to earn 3 X RM.
2) After converted to RM your salary is very high! Can you find RM8k (2.7k x3) job in Malaysia?
3) I pay you and you should contribute more and be loyalty, don't calculative, you should complete your job in time no matter how long OT and no OT payment.

many chinaman SG company boss think like this..
Many ppl successful get their PR without let employer sign that form.

Good luck and keep looking for new job

Edited: Household 6k SGD, means that your wife salary is higher than you? I suggest you can apply PR under her application! My wife (Work Permit) also under my PR application and both of us get PR recently. Both of you is EP and SP and qualification is better than me!

How long you worked in sg when you apply PR last time?
After PR approved, you resign before PR formalities lah.. As long as your wife have job then the formalities will go well.

Yes, once the PR application approved, you are not convert to PR immediately, you need to go through PR formalities (make other appointment again) which take you one months, and you need to complete it within 3 months (correct me if i was wrong).

You will become PR after formalities completed in ICA in front of officer, they will issue you entry permit/re entry permit and take your EP/SP, you will get your IC number and book other appointment to get your physical IC.

Wondering if it possible to surrender Malaysia IC if still owning PTPTN loan? Or i can still pay PTPTN LOAN continuously after become sinkie??

Planning to apply.

Hey , did i mention/intend i will not to pay back the loan?

I only ask, CAN WE PAY THE LOAN after change nationality? I just worry if Citizen application approved but cannot revoke malaysian IC only! It will affect my future life plan such as housing, building family and etc. BTW I am not that kind of person ok

In addition, dont forget about your guarantor (while applying PTPTN) will need to settle this if you not paying LOAN!

BTW YOU ARE NOT ANSWERING MY QUESTION , you are whining.

I accept your apology.

Yes, exactly i concern about is if i am not able to pay off PTPTN in one shot (around RM70 thousand, after convert still need SGD20k ++), am i able to revoke Malaysia citizenship.

Need to save SGD500++ by 36 months to reach this number, plus my salary is not many after deducted CPF, and the saving is for support family's loan, marriage, housing and etc..

I rather to pay the LOAN slowly instead of one time.

Thanks for the answer, appreciated it. Wonderin how MY gov cover the loop hole? Not allow to revoke Citizenship if holding LOAN?
