Hi,
what happens if one wants to transfer rep to new passport of a new nationality?
I wanted to enquire on a situation.
the REP is renewal is in another 2 years. But there is a change in citizenship. eg. canada. can the REP transfer be done online? there is a option for nationality while transferring REP.
can the PR return to sg and live and work?

REP Transfer - New Passport New Nationality
Re: REP Transfer - New Passport New Nationality
This is all possible but it may raise a red flag as it will look to ICA as though the REP holder is planning to migrate to Canada and ICA may only give 1 year REP.
I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.

You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

Re: REP Transfer - New Passport New Nationality
If you change your anchor Nationality, you will probably lose your PR. PR is granted on certain prerequisites, one of which is Nationality at the time of application & approval. Should that change, it may change the ICA's point spread and they could refuse to give you an REP based on your new nationality. We had a moderator here who held three nationalities/passports (US, CA & UK) but his Anchor Nationality for his PR was only on his US passport.
