PR application pending for 15 months - Chances?

[Jane_L]

Hi, please kindly have a look at my profile and offer your opinion about my PR application.

This is the third time I applied: 1st time I applied on my own, 2nd and 3rd time was sponsored by my husband who is a Singaporean.

I applied on April 2016. My profile is as follows:
- Female. Vietnamese. 29 year old.
- Studied in NUS for Bachelor and PhD.
- Have been working for 3.5 years in a local company. This is my first job and I have not changed ever since. Promoted once, current salary is 55k/year.
- Have been staying in Singapore >10 years.
- Married to a Singaporean in 2014. My husband has bachelor and master from NUS.
- Trying to have a baby since married. No luck yet.

Thank you for your time.

Hi ecrureilx, thank you for your reply. I am on EP.

did you try to email ica to ask about your pr application status? i got my pr approval 2 months after i emailed them.

my profile is quite similar with your case (vnese married singaporean). my pr application got rejected 4 times (3 times on my own and 4th time under my husband's sponsor) and only approve on the 5th time . i also hold EP while waiting for pr

we also married in 2014. my 5th time apply pr were July 2016 and got approval in Dec 2016.

Goodluck

Hi ecrureilx, thank you for your reply. I am on EP.

So why didnt you get LTVP + before trying for PR ?

Maybe because she is already on her own EP and doesn't want to go down the LOC road to keep working?

I see no reason why it is less desirable to apply for PR from EP as opposed to LTVP.

Very Low salary for a PhD holder, are you in a startup? Or is it a role entirely irrelevant to your degree? Working on any projects with specific Singaporean institutions to directly benefit the population?

Spouse of SC are strongly encouraged to go the LTVP+ -> PR or jump to SC.

That worked for a lot of folks of late, than fighting for PR directly.

PS, LTVP+
