SINGAPORE EXPATS FORUM
Singapore Expat Forum and Message Board for Expats in Singapore & Expatriates Relocating to Singapore

All residential areas in Singapore have something going on for babies & kids - there are classes/playgroups at all malls & community centers.
Therefore better to choose your residence based on other factors such as work location / time to commute / proximity to MRT / expat favored area etc etc..

Was thinking the same, that it's quite bad publicity for NS that a celebrity-of-sorts is in ICU due to reservist. But in a country where (a) population is limited, and (b) majority culture places emphasis on $$, prosperity, consumerism etc, I imagine there will be very few takers for full-time army ...

You may apply for a multiple-entry tourist visa for your baby and use it to enter SG, however i would really not recommend it as you would need to exit SG in 30days & re-enter - it is a hassle with a newborn. And what if your DP gets rejected meanwhile ? You won't be able to do visa runs with the ne...

just out of curiosity.. were you able to get a DP for your baby ?

Assuming that you are on EP, your wife is on DP.
You need your child's DP to be approved before you arrive in Singapore, i.e. your wife should have the child's IPA letter with her along with child's passport to be able to enter Singapore. The IPA basically serves as the 'visa' to enter.

Thank you PNGMK. I am working on faster divorce options in India - mutual consent divorce - which concludes within about 6 months to 1yr of filing, however it is not looking very feasible at the moment as husband and I haven't reached an agreement yet (still hoping we'll be able to reach middle grou...

Hi Members, I am non-chinese, and would like my 2y+ daughter to start learning Mandarin early. I am looking for a classroom-based program that focuses more on verbal communication, than writing. The idea is for her to pick up another language, not really to prepare for primary school. I've looked at...

If your husband is on EP, then you should have gotten a DP - dont understand how you got an LTVP in the first place :-k DP is for spouse & kids, LTVP is for parents of EP holder. Or is he on PEP..? And yeah - LTVP holders also get an IPA to enter SG similar to DP/EP. Did you receive a formal offer l...

Sorry can't help you with questions 1,2,3, but regarding 4 - the landlord's address is not mentioned even in my TA, but I found it mentioned on the Letter of Intent that I signed prior to the TA, so maybe check your LOI if you have one ?

Hi folks, I'm about 6months into a 2yr rental contract, and have just been informed by the agent that the landlord is looking to sell the condo. They're looking for a buyer who will continue the tenancy contract, i.e. I don't need to vacate, and will continue paying the same rental amount even when ...

Option1 : You could enroll her in a 2hr playgroup - some of the operators are Star Tots, Apple Tree, Talent Plus, Little Learners.. check their websites to find a center near you. Fee is generally around $175 per month. Option 2 : You could enroll her in a preschool or half-day childcare, for class ...

PJ841,
If you dont mind, could you share what your salary was at the time of (a) initial application for EP, and (b) while applying for EP renewal recently ?
Thanks

It's not the heat, it's humidity.
