Here are a few questions.OZ Mum wrote: I have renounced my SG-citizenship last year and my hubby's is now in the process of waiting for their response for his.
When did Hubby submit renunciation papers to ICA ?
Does that mean they have 'utilised SG priviledges' and are eligible to serve NS?
Yes, BIG YES !!
I have spoken to CMPB personnel and all they could tell you is to submit application and they will consider. I have several friends tried but unsuccessful in their applications.
1, What are my chances of applying for their deferment in my case?
Sort out hubby papers first.
Then write to CMPB stating intention to apply for deferment till 21 pending renunciation . This docs will be posted to you after you wrote a cover letter to both ICA and CMPB. I will guide you but need a few questions to fill in the gap
2. What points should I be considering when writing the letter of intent for the boys (so called the parents' consent to renounce their citizenship when reach 21 years of age)?
AS per No.1
3. Should I take careful thoughts in penning the contents on the letter?
Yes, I will guide you
4. Do both parents' renounciation able to stand a better chance in the application?
Yes, BIG YES !!!
5. Does returning the boys' passports to them helped in applying the deferment?
Does not make any diff. You cannot return the SG PP once you state intention. PP to be return only at 21 when deferment is accepted by Mindef
Hope to hear some helpful tips to assist my next course of action.
I sincerely appreciate and thankful in all contributions to my query.
Blessings
Yes, if he is foreign born and attain dual citizenship for SG from SG parent before 5. Although one did manage to be approve when the child was 7.hobbystamper wrote:Hi MS,
I am reading the above post with great curiosity. Can a child renounce his citizenship before he turns 5?
I am in the above situation. Child turning 5 next week, we are leaving SG in 2 weeks. So I am wondering what to do.
If he can renounce before he turns 5, that would be great. If not, then I will just wait till he is 13 to do what is suggested above..
Thanks.
As you have renounce your PRC citizenship and now attain SG citizenship, your child is a SG Citizen by law .mom2011 wrote:hi, i have read a lot of posts here and they are very helpful.
my boy is 13 and unfortunately i have renewed the passport for him once although it has never been used.
his situation is a little different. when he was born, both hubby and i are PRC citizen and my son got PRC citizen as well.
all of us got SG citizen when my son was 2 years old.
we moved out of SG when the son was 8 and got PR (not citizen yet) for another county and lived there since.
we have no family ties in SG and no property in SG either.
the son has never visited singapore after he left when he was 8.
so what's his chance of deferment application?
thanks in advance.
