Low expectations, low disappointment.Absquatulate9899 wrote:Greetings, for some background information, my family applied earlier this year which includes me, my son (18) and my daughter (16) with me being main applicant. Our application was rejected as it was pending for 3 months, I was devastated as we wanted to make Singapore our home and my family had plans of settling down here. My kids had attended a local secondary school, so far my son had finished his O levels and is now studying in a local polytechnic. I’m sure my daughter would follow through. I’ve also have local friends and am active within the community.

Application date: July 29, 2016

Apart from being required to submit more documents and the fact that I’m undergoing a divorce which I submitted relevant documents to the ICA officer, I don’t know what else could have caused our application to be rejected. We would consider applying again but how long must we wait until our next appointment? And thus any feedback would be welcomed.

Though, don't despair.
Give a try in a year's time.
But hope for a miracle
Was your spouse a kababayan?

as many aspirants do ....
That too didn't help
If I am to believe the few wanna be applicants .... blood donation supposedly helps. There's a few posts in that vein here ..Absquatulate9899 wrote: So donating blood is a bonus point?
I thought its something those who go great lengths hoping their application gets accepted? To the ICA officer, its something that wouldn't suffice to show their commitment to Singapore.
If there's some major change, like new baby (Absquatulate9899 wrote:Thank you, also applying for the second time is reccomended usually after how nany months?
It is stated that applicants are free to reapply again 6 months from the date of rejection. And on the forums its suggested to apply 1 year later.
If they have grown children they are out of luck most likely. The latest demographics document makes it pretty clear that the PR applicants should be in the 'child bearing/rearing' age range (25 to 49 with dependent families if married and over the age of child bearing). PR is not a reward fo being a high earner who didn't contribute children to the cause; it's an immigration tool for demographic control.brian_singapore wrote:Just another anedcote on how hard it's getting if your not in the right bucket ...
I was talking to one of our MDs (Managing Director) and a D (Director) here. The MD is working on his third application and the D is trying to decide how much longer to wait before making his second application. Both have been in SG for > 5 years and while I don't know exactly how much they make, they should both be very well compensated.
I don't know much about their particulars other then they both have grown children, both submitted a family application and both are of Indian descent.
NOA per year, so you should get 2013 on 2014, and 2014 on 2015. You shouldn't get a 2016 as you should get this around April or May 2017.Absquatulate9899 wrote:hkphooey wrote:NOA, you mean notice of assessment from IRAS?

Well there were four when I gave my documents, now counting to 5 just recently.
I know Filipino MDs, the medical type, who have been given long term pass but no go for PR.brian_singapore wrote:Just another anedcote on how hard it's getting if your not in the right bucket ...
