I have been working in Singapore for around four years, and my wife is working here for three years. Now, I am planning to go for MBA and will come back to join the same organization. I have offers from a couple of good institutes including NUS. However, I am planning to Join Oxford as I got a very enticing scholarship from the Institute.
Now, my question – if I stay outside Singapore for over a year then will I need to spend another 3 years before applying for PR.

Thank you Barnsley for writing your perspective.
All the people I have spoken to - including a visa consultant -are saying the same thing.
