I've been offered the chance to move to Singapore from London with my company and after discussing with my fiance we've decided it's too good an opportunity to pass on.
My company are working on covering my visa costs and have also offered to apply for a 5 year visitor pass for my fiance.
I've been reading some other posts as well as the new(ish) rules and was wondering if with a long term visitor pass she will be able to look for work without any issues?
Also, if my company do not manage to get her pass will she be restricted from moving with me?
Thanks...
Not quite right. OP, since she is your fiance and not a spouse, she does not qualify for any type of social pass based upon your employment pass. She needs an employment pass in her own right or you two need to get married.JR8 wrote:bp7 wrote:Hi all,

Great stuff, and welcome aboard the ark!
5 year spouse visa. Not heard of that. I think the LTVP is two years. But google on this forum on things like 'common law wife'. It points towards her getting here on an LTVP [search on that too].
If she pre-qualifies, she can tick on the LTVP application and to seek, and probably get an 'LTVP+'. The '+' being the right to work....
Yes but there is no guarantee of getting an EP. The government (MOM) may approve it depending on her education, work experience and the offered salary. If she is qualified only for an SPASS, the company hiring her must have the required quota.bp7 wrote:Thanks for the info guys. Is it possible to get an LTVP converted to an EP?
As much as she would like to not have to work she'd start to get bored of it very soon
The last time I checked this was pretty much just a formality.Strong Eagle wrote:Neither permits work but a person on a DP can apply for a letter of consent to work. The person on a LTVP cannot work, period.
