Are you a chinese ? If yes, just apply.
If not, just apply anyway
Friend of mine was on EP for 2 years applied and got PR. He was male Malaysian chinese around your age too.
Good luck

Less than 6 months.
But I can tell you....all this means for naught. It doesn't really matter. No one can tell you for certain. It's not a science. Haha.
I don't care much for what some say in here, but one wise man's words I like to quote when answering how long questions on PR application waiting duration....
'How long is a piece of string?'
Wish you all the best

Depending upon your country of origin, ICA may start suspecting something is very very wrong. Or not.

from Malaysia as well, the original cert was issued 10 yrs ago but now the institute refused to issue another original cert as they claimed that this person did not complete the MQA subjects (moral studies & malaysian studies) required by the government, thou these subjects do not carry any credit but is compulsory to be done in order to graduate. not sure if ICA will further check on this?
another thing is will ICA consider recommendation letter written by the current employer (besides Annex A)? will that increase the chances of getting it approved?

If it helps, the fastest I've seen first hand was 2 months for single Malaysian Chinese female professionals.
But it can vary. So this means nothing if yours happen to take the average time or longer.

Thanks, it helps a lot.
Wonder would it affect my application if I'm getting my rom done in Singapore before I have my result?

If you get your ROM Done (Marriage ??), it would help if you sent a copy of the marriage certificate to ICA
It should only be positive- so go for it

No one knows. Getting married in Singapore doesn't guarantee you status, just like how having babies in Singapore doesn't guarantee your kids having citizenship here.
But as the procedures require, always update to ICA any important change you have (new passport, address, marital status, employment, death etc).

Just worried that it will affect my chances of getting it approved as I applied as single, know that it won't increase the chance by telling them I'm married..

Depends on who you married somewhat, I'm pretty sure. If the girl is Singaporean Chinese no problem. If she's Malaysian Chinese but not here with you, could be problematic but probably not. If she's PRC, VN or Pinoy, you might have a problem.

Marrying a guy definitely as I'm a girl.. He is Malaysian Chinese,EP holder as well, we didn't apply together as spouse as only decided to rom after the pr submission date was set. would it be easier for him to get pr after I hv obtained mine and apply for him as spouse?

If both are here on work passes, and both M'sian Chinese, I'd say pretty much a shoe-in. Really doesn't make much difference I don't think in this case as both of you are on EP's so it's pretty much even. ROM'ing will definitely not hurt the application, as long as you notify ICA of the change of marital status. It would probably be easier after you have obtained yours, but even that is subjective depending on who you talk to. We've seen it go either way over the years. But, wish you luck!
