Hi guys, may I know which bank in singapore can be open without the singapore employment doc?

Bro, thanks for the reply but I have went to DBS branch in tai seng last month, they dont allow unless u have employement pass in Singapore.

Applied in August.

Approved in feb .

There is no minimum but at least 6 months and above as one of required doc is 6 months payslip. From what I heard, Malaysian have higher chance of getting PR compared to other countries as our culture, language, etc are almost the same which is an advantage to assimilate and localise to SG.
Print one side, it does matter. Formal doc should not be in two sided, exception e.g. appendix, glossary etc.
For myself, I submitted few months ago and not even close to one year in SG, result is still pending so can't say its right choice but good luck to me. Haha.
I don't think it works this way. Unless your YE2016 income is less than SGD22k? Otherwise, its mandatory to file your tax return. I saw u mentioned u worked almost a year in SG, assuming 9 months x 2.5k = 22.5k.
Nevertheless, suggest u to read up SG tax and at least basic knowledge, it doesn't work the same as MY tax except the progressive part.

Thanks. How long process can get card after submit document

Thanks for your comment
Yeah. I think it need your employer to fill it up.

Don't forget that once your PR is approved your company need to sign a declaration stating that you are still working with the company. You may want to discuss with your company first whether they will still impose the bond in this case.

You can submit EP card, payslip as a proof is they don't want to sign the declaration.

I doubt the person processing your application will even accept your application without it
Your explanation to them will make you sound dishonest so why would they

It sounds to me like you're trying to rush things
If you don't like your current company why not find a new job first, and apply once you're there?
PR application is a long process anyway

No u wont, but u might start look for new job after that..... since you didnt sign that 2 year bond with company

Anyone care to explain why there is a significantly longer line for ppl going up causeway link in kranji than those taking SBS 160 170 across the road to kastam?

Hi Everyone,

Recently, HR informed me that I cant renew my EP and will drop to SPass due to unknown reason. My salary already over the current requirement (which is 3600) and I have been working as engineer for 4 years (2 years in Msia and 2 years in SG).

So i would like to ask does this happen to anyone here after MOM introduced the new requirement for EPass? Or is it me only?

And if it happen, what is your next plan? Continue with SPass? Or apply for PR ?

I not sure they provided the same as my current salary or not, but they need to pay around 600+ for the levy.

Is it possible if I apply for PR through online while I'm still EP now till mid of June? Trying my luck now actually.

Anyone here applied for PR after working in Sg for about one year plus? Were you able to get it?That will be me..... i am currently still waiting.....

Hi all,
Recently I'm offered to work in Singapore for as engineer with 1 year++ experience. Salary around SGD 2800. Currently I'm paid around MYR 4000. My concern as below. Pls enlighten this kampung boy with high dreams.
1. Does the company deduct levy or any other deduction from the SGD 2800?
2. What is the breakdown for normal Malaysian work at SG in terms of food, accommodation(As i don't think waking up 4am to travel from jb-sg is healthy), misc etc?
3. How SG manufacturing environment is compared to MY?
4. Assume I had saved around SGD 1500. If i save it and convert it monthly do I get 1500 x 2.9?
5. Am I underpaid at SG? because at MY I earn RM4k net pay.

So how bad was it?
Bought Starmart bus tix departing at 12am.. 3am only leaving the johor custom.
Is Starmart this bad?
