Thank you for the reply. Yes, I thought so, too. But when I was uploading my documents, I could not proceed to the next page without uploading a primary school cert as it was marked as a mandatory document.
Since my primary school cert is in Malay, technically I would need to get it translated professionally and notarized like what I did for my Malaysian birth cert. But I couldn't really do that because of the time limit for ePR application. Also, in my opinion, it is a bit weird to require professional translation and notarization for a primary school cert...Especially for my Malaysian one which is just a flimsy, unofficial-looking piece of white paper...
Anyway, I was wondering if other student applicants faced the same issue and what they did.

ICA system was down at 8am this morning to make the ePR go live. It was finally live just before 08.30am, accessible using singpass.
The form 4A is far more detailed than the hardcopy version. Document reference numbers are demanded - All applicant needs to put their national ID numbers, birth certs number, and marriage cert number. The entry for parents and siblings are quite detailed, with dedicated field for each person (compared to only a summary table in the old form 4A). Filling the form online - which requires selecting from pre-populated field and filling field one by one- takes far longer time than dealing with hardcopy form. Total 20 pages of form was generated.
I experienced timeout several times, and once I needed to re-upload the documents all over again. When timeout happened, I just re-login using singpass and resume the draft application. Thankfully, despite the timeout, the system was able to continue from where I left off. Payment was smooth too.
Small tip: When filling up the "responsibilities" section in employment history - only use letters numbers and spaces. The field somehow could not take symbols and punctuations (incl ., and $).
Now we pray!
Addendum: Starting 18 Dec ICA also allows PR application for Students - seems to be aiming for student who are doing pre-tertiary studies in Singapore. It is made clear that PR granted through this scheme is liable for NS, unlike the PTS scheme.
This letter makes no sense. When all the information is already there in the Annex A and we are also providing them with 6 months payslip. For an otherwise very pragmatic application process, this new letter is weird.sundaymorningstaple wrote:It's pretty simple really. You go to HR and ask them for a letter outlining your pay for the last six months, broken down by month an by the type of income requested, e.g., listing your basic salary for each month requested and separately any allowances and/or Overtime received for each pay requested. Seriously, it's pretty simple and is designed so that somebody with only an N level qualification will easily be able to understand the requirements. One of my staff just received his PR two weeks ago, and about 4 to 6 weeks before that I gave him a letter and his previous 6 months pay vouchers for the same purpose.
