"If your work visa is valid for 12 months or more you will be charged at resident rates. However, should you leave before 6 months (specifically 183 days) then you will be charged on your IR-21 filing based on the non-resident rate."

Isnt that employment pass usually 2 years ? If your passport has more that 2 years validate .

Yes, it's usually more than 2 years but the period granted is to the discretion of the MOM.
So it could possibly to be less in my opinion, depending on the applicant's condition and submitted.

Which are the recommended ones in your opinion? Have been a loyal MBB in MY since donkey years ago when i started working so haven't paid much attention to card offerings lol.

Amex for food and a cash rebate one for shopping?

If ur the type that hoards cash inbank accounts.. Take those that tie ur credit card to the interest u earn... Like ocbc360. Nowadays all local bank have something similar to the ocbc 3% interest kind of plan.

Below 20 bucks, really nice (although I'm no foodie) lol.

Just don't go during lunch in your office attire and if possible... bring another t-shirt. Lest you stink like food in the MRT.

Shud apply pr. Dun be stubborn like me until now osos dowan get PR, now wanna change job oso susah

Be singapore PR good la. Can get resale hdb and can change job. Can give some money for retirement too for cpf. Cpf is a wonderful thing. Tax free cash to ur account

Then after that faster take citizenship. Singapore give cheap bto for u, faster grab it le. Singapore got better future for u. Better currency too.

Dun be like me, now saving money tk go bck msia and worried whether msia is ok.

Only PR's and Citizen need to contribute to CPF or after working for 2 years.
But if your employer is willing to pay CPF for you, take the chance.
You might have less to use monthly but you get quite a lot of savings tax-free.
