You can submit a citizenship application for yourself and send an update email with that reference number to your spouse's pending PR application with ICA, stating that you applied for citizenship (this may not even be necessary as ICA updates the linked info automatically). Best case scenario both applications will benefit. Worst case may be no effect on outcome.Mintygreen wrote:Hi all, appreciate your help to assess our chance for Singapore citizenship application.

Ok thanks, that makes sense. My wife (Korean) would never give up her citizenship whereas I (Brit) would!bro75 wrote:It should not be odd since non-PRs cannot apply for citizenship (except minors sponsored by SC parents/PR parents).
Not necessarily. The fact that the spouse is not a PR (or has not been a PR for long enough) means s/he is not eligible and this requirement is set by ICA.CashewNut wrote:Would ICA consider it odd if a PR applies for citizenship himself but the wife (who is not PR) does not?
+1 to the second paragraph.jamie9vardy wrote: Not necessarily. The fact that the spouse is not a PR (or has not been a PR for long enough) means s/he is not eligible and this requirement is set by ICA.
It may look odd if both are PR and one does not apply to keep the back door open. That said, this board has witnessed some who did this still had their SC approved.

Yourself
Desired nationality, ethnicity, gender, of childbearing age. However, a bit too soon to apply as you've just crossed the 2 years of SPR.
Spouse
Nationality and race have not been the flavour of the month in ICA for a while now. Unfortunately you cannot include him in your SC application as he is not an SPR.
[A Singapore PR may apply for Singapore citizenship if he/she is above 21 years old, and has resided continuously in Singapore as a PR for at least 2 years at the time of citizenship application. The spouse must also be a Singapore PR for at least 2 years, and be married for 2 years or more.]
A few questions for you:
- you mentioned in your previous that you used to commute in and out of SG for work daily. How long have you been residing continuously in SG since then?
- how long have you been married?
- is his PR application on his own merit (i.e. PTS) or sponsored by you?
Yes and no. Yes if thinking about length of service. No if you haven't had much in the way of advancement or income. However, if you are already at the zenith of the pecking order in your company, then it would obviously be a plus. Age would also have a bearing as well.CashewNut wrote:Do they consider length of time in Singapore on an EP? I'm now 2 years PR. Before that 6 years on EP. Entire period has been continuous. Essentially 8 continuous years resident here.
