QUOTE(Fiona Chin @ May 26 2017, 09:40 AM) Why quote me additional note for PR application for baby born in SG, no need e-appointment, just bring all the documentation, and walk in to ICA.Most answer given at the reply. The nationality of the child is to follow either one of the parents. Can give birth but will be more expensive than Malaysia, and after that need to find nanny or family members with long term visit pass to come over to take care of your wife and baby. And harder to get those herbal food your wife need to eat. Actually I don't know why I chose to give birth in SG. So expensive SG birth cert just to say this baby born here only. Go embassy apply Malaysian birth cert with MY citizenship. Then you either apply PR for the baby, not sure about SG citizenship, or LTVP for the baby to stay if don't want apply PR. |

QUOTE(bearbear @ Jun 14 2017, 12:27 AM) you need to do it within a year of coming into Singapore (as employee) else you need to do the full practical. I heard only not sure but that is what everyone is telling me. i did mine many years after i got my PR, just BTT, nothing else leh...i did it dead on one yr anniversary cause my work require me to drive. Leave some buffer because sometimes the center tends to get a little busy and exam slots are fully booked 2-3 weeks out. if you convert yours before your PR, then the license will have expiry date, and needs to be renewed once, after you get your PR. if you convert yours after your PR, then the license will have no expiry date. one of my friend who got his license before PR naively thought his license will be automatically extended/converted to become no expiry upon getting PR, and found out waaaaay after the expiry date(3 years after expiry, to be exact). so now he lost both his malaysia license and SG license, need to start all over again. |

QUOTE(bigtree @ Jun 30 2017, 10:26 AM) sorry if this is answered before, but if we convert while we are on SP/EP (not PR yet), are we required to surrender our Malaysian driving license? I saw some feedback that JPJ will ask us to surrender when we request for the report from them http://www.mycarforum.com/topic/1745016-if...-msian-licence/ |

QUOTE(Fiona Chin @ Sep 14 2017, 11:00 PM) When I first came to Singapore I was so envy of those people who stay in HDB and Condo. Only the rich stay in high rise back in hometown. Yeap maintenance for a landed housing is expensive. Staying in family house. Looking at the bills and maintenance fee, can't afford it as employee if parents not paying for it. But prefer my kids grow up having a garden to play rather than staying in a confined space. exactly my thoughts...guess i've been here long enough liao... i grew up in a place where i can go "outdoor" without getting outside of house compound.. my kids now cant go outdoor without adult supervision, so weekdays they're confined to the limited space available to them within the house. cycling, running, jumping, playing with balls, all inside the small living room.. |

QUOTE(crazy25kid @ Oct 11 2017, 11:47 AM) times have changed wah... didn't know its so difficult now..when my first daughter was born in 2013, it took 2 months. I did not even need to apply for extension as the 90 days white card was sufficient for PR to be approved. my 2nd daughter's pr took 8 months in 2016!!!! extended the white card once was not sufficient so end up with LTVP for 1 year. in fact, ICA even told me to apply for LTVP when they first issued the white card saying it may exceed the 90 days. anyway, i'm converting to citizen along with my kids, and not looking back liao.. submitted my documents to ICA in feb after CNY, and got my in-principal approval in june.. my 2012 dragon-year daughter entering primary school in 2 years time, and being a PR makes it difficult for her to secure a place in school.

QUOTE(deodorant @ Oct 16 2017, 03:18 PM) SIC Salary comparison tool. http://www.salary.sg/2017/compare-your-annual-income-2017/ why bother to filter out the xx.xxx?Mine: Your annual income of $xx,xxx. is higher than 55.6% of all resident taxpayers*. Heng I am at least in the upper half. Another 4 years to 40 years old. Wonder if I can achieve top 40% by then ... * "As usual, please note that residents earning $20k and below do not pay tax. Hence they are not included in the above comparison." by telling us you are higher than 55.6% means we can reverse the figure and know how much you're earning.. |
