Hello,
I've only recently moved to Singapore (early December 2013), and am thinking about applying for PR. I know that I've only lived in Sinagpore for a very short period of time, and that this is one of the factors that ICA considers. However, I don't know the weight given, and hope the strengths of my other points might be able to compensate. Would appreciate any feedback or thoughts.
Nationality: Chinese American (US Citizen, Chinese ancestry)
Age: 34
Marital Status: Recently Married (mid-2013), w/o kids currently
Wife is also US Citizen w/ Chinese ancestry, age 29
Can apply for just myself or with my wife
Average annual income (past 3 years): 2.5M-3.0M SGD
Education: Computer Science (M.S. and B.S.) and Management (B.S.) Degrees from MIT
Current Status: Employment Pass Holder, wife on a DP
Do you think my chances of getting PR would be helped or hurt by applying with my wife (she is also an Ivy League graduate, but her career is still in the making)? What's an appropriate amount of time to wait before trying? 6 months? 1 year? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!
