Some background of me, Malaysian Chinese, 34, married with 2 kids. Family are all already here in SG.
ICA asks for 3 years*, you ask for 3 months. You can't be that serious?
*ICA would ask for 3 Notice of Assessment from IRAS, which is equivalent of 3 years of income tax.
It is normal for PR slots to take more than 6 months. Nobody ever said that applying for PR is easy peasy. But you can try to secure by checking into eAppointment page every day before 9am to get earlier slots that are cancelled last-minute by candidates who change their minds.
And the craziest early timeline one could try (because they are Malaysian Chinese) is 6 months, not 3 months. And 6 months is not even a guarantee yet that you will get approved for PR.
