Hi everyone,
Last month when i was in sg for travel, I was caught stealing the comestics worth $50 in Super market, the polices come to take me to police station. Luckily I didnt go to court, they just warned me and they took my blood sample, finger prints and my photos either. I was so scared and stupidly answer the IO that i come here to looking for a job while i using a social visit pass. He said that I will forever can't come back sg again, the ICA will block me at the airport. But then I asked another officer, he said still can come back sg.. This made me confused.

Hopefully, you will get blocked at immigration. It's people like you who give expats a bad name. If we are unlucky, you might manage to get back into Singapore.
Criminal record? No. But listed as undesirable? Probably. They don't need any more shoplifters that they already have here. I feel sorry for your intended spouse, having hooked up with someone with unlawful habits. Sorry, no sympathy here.

To Sundaymorning,
I understand that you got the rights to say that. I would say the same if I see other people do the same thing, just that one moment I can't resist my evil inside. This is my first time ever done such a stupid mistake at my young age.. I really felt shame and regretful for what have I done.
I posted my thread here to search for some guidline and also to share my story so other people wont repeat this sittuation again.

They took your blood sample ? Unless you had tell tale signs of drugs that's a really rare thing ...
And you are a female?
Not your first visit to Singapore right?

How many times have you been to Singapore? Twice? And you have found a potential mate with just 60 days in Singapore? And on the 2nd trip you decided to try out your sticky fingers in the makeup department of a supermarket? I think I know why they took a blood sample. How long between trips to Singapore? If rather close, It is not going to look good for a number of reasons, and your trouble with the law might only be the straw that broke the camel's back.
