Re: Advice Needed!
Is it one year since you relocate and work here or one year since you applied your pr?

Re: Advice Needed!
Application was submitted in May-2015 while we were still in HK, and today is exactly one year since the application date.
Then we relocated to SG and I started to work here since end of Jun-2015.

Agree that no particular rush, just for the 2 reasons below.Barnsley wrote:Maybe they thinking not much "permanence" shown at the minute so they taking their time.swish41 wrote:Application was submitted in May-2015 while we were still in HK, and today is exactly one year since the application date.

What's the rush?
1. Current lease will end at Jun-2017, so want to buy a resale HDB and move into it before the lease expires.
2. Getting a PR will allow for more flexibility in career options.
