Nothing negative there ..stend15 wrote:I will make this as short as possible
I am apply for a PR for my family which includes me, my wife and my son. Following is our profile :
Me : 31 years / Indian / Shipping Industry / Salary of SGD 7,500 per month / Bonus usually 2 months
Wife : 29 years /Indian / IT Contract admin / Salary of SGD 3,000 per month/ Bonus usually 3 months
Son : 3 years/Indian / Nuisance Maker / No Salary / No Bonus
I know we arent exactly heavy earners but do you guys think our salaries will be a negative factor?
Unfortunately, such promises were never taken seriously, especially for sub cons, who promised the sky and moon and took of at the first opportunity.stend15 wrote: We genuinely want to make Singapore our home. I even rejected a chance to relocate to Europe because I like Singapore so much. And I genuinely don't mind my son joining NS. I hope I can put this all across properly in my application. Will a cover letter help ?
Sub cons (Apologies again) and volunteering have been seen suspiciously.. no sweat if you did or didn't ...stend15 wrote: Unfortunately I have not been active in social service here because of various reasons. Most of my time was spent in trying to help my own family .
Pray that ICA sees you as a resident...Any helps/tips will be appreciated.

Meanwhile, when I asked whether our salary is a negative point I actually wanted to ask about our whole profile. I mean I know there are many Indians who apply but I assume a majority of them belong to IT or banking. Is me being in shipping positive/negative/doesnt matter?
If not applicable, put a N/A or you'll be doing that in front of the collecting officer.stend15 wrote:Thanks...there are some sections /pages which are not applicable to me...do i keep them blank or enter not applicable or /NA

No.1) I have changed 5 addresses since I moved to Singapore. I have missed updating a couple of these addresses with MOM. I will ofcourse include all these addresses in the application but will the fact that I missed out on updating MOM be a negative factor when my app is considered?
No. Unless you changed job or title changed, it's one job. One entry - last drawn basic pay. Plus last 6 months pay slips.2) In the employment section, my job title and to some extent my responsibilities haven't change much since I joined. Just that I got better at what I was doing. My company's organizational chart was pretty horizontal. However, my salary changed every year.
So basically, Title : XYZ stayed constant but salaries not including bonuses as follows :
2012 : 4,000
2013 : 5,250
2014 : 6.000
2015 : 6.600
2016 : 7,500
So do I include each one of these as a separate entry in the employment section?
That's not an achievement, in MY opinion. Leave it blank.3) I've not really had earth shattering achievement as such. I mean I can mention something like getting 30% pay rise after my first year on the job which ws more than any of my colleagues and stuff. But that is nothing great. Will leaving it bank have an adverse effect?
