Calling all SC Applicants
I applied for SC since July 2013. Almost a year, but till today no call nor reply from ICA. Anyone facing the same scenario? please share. Does this means chances of getting approved is higher?
Applying for both myself and daughter age 29 months old. Wanted to apply as a family but unfortunately, my hubby's PR is less than 3 years so he cant apply at the moment of time.lfo_24 wrote:kcsyfne, mind telling us your profile... maybe somehow, it plays a part, just my guess
Working as admin. Salary per mth 2.5+. Resided in SG 10 years back. Deliver my daughter in Singapore. Age 29.

And furthermore, my colleague (married but applied for herself only) applied a week before me and got her rejection after waited for 7 mths.

More like there is something in her application profile that helped ICA to make a decision quicker (i.e. to reject her).kcsyfne wrote:but many told me the longer the wait, the higher chancessundaymorningstaple wrote:You should have prepared yourself for that the day you sent the application in.![]()

Time is not a yardstick to the success of application. Why the rush, by the way?

Applying for SC, purely to avail yourself of a financial subsidy for SC, is completely not what the ICA wants to see in future citizens.kcsyfne wrote:Erm..what do you mean?PNGMK wrote:And RIGHT THERE lady is why you should not get SC.kcsyfne wrote: My 1st baby turning 3 this year.. planning for second baby.

That was my initial reason. But not anymore now. Planning to get a resale. Another reason is that my whole family is in Sg now. And my mum is a SC by birth. She married to my dad and resided in Mlys all the while and came back to SG 3 years ago. I don't plan to go back malaysia anymore.PNGMK wrote:Applying for SC, purely to avail yourself of a financial subsidy for SC, is completely not what the ICA wants to see in future citizens.kcsyfne wrote:Erm..what do you mean?PNGMK wrote: And RIGHT THERE lady is why you should not get SC.
