You need to read up on MOM rules. Whether she is or was a WP holder, seeking permission is MOM rule. I presume to eliminate Marriages of Convenience..Peezahut wrote: I am a SPR who grew up and studied in Sg(including serving NS) since I was young. However I did not change to Pink ic, I didn't reject the offer, I just didn't choose.
What happen was that I recently got rejected by MOM to marry my China gf who USED TO BE a work permit holder. My gf was working in Sg for two months sometime back in 2012/2013(can't remember cos it's a long time ago), with a work permit, after that two months, she has returned to China ever since.
I met her two years ago overseas and are intending to marry but only to get a rejection by MOM. I feel so unfair that I have to ask MOM on my personal life, some more she is an Ex Wp holder, not a current one, I don't see why do I have to consult MOM for permission! Can I ask any seniors here on how to appeal?

Can't your missus come here and get another job requiring S-Pass or E-Pass?Peezahut wrote:Thank you ecruilx and bbcoc for your reply but the rejection letter states that even marriage outside Singapore is not allowed. Our plan is educate our future kid in sg, and that I've read many post saying if we were to ignore MOM rejection and marry overseas, my wife to be will be rejected entry to singapore. Is that true? My family mom n dad are all here... That's why we are planning to marry n live in sg
Correction: MOM can't stop you from marrying elsewhere.Peezahut wrote:Thank you ecruilx and bbcoc for your reply but the rejection letter states that even marriage outside Singapore is not allowed.

Well, she worked in KTV but not sure of the details ? Maybe there in lie the problem. Was she sent off legally or deported ? Never mind anyway.Peezahut wrote:Thank you all for replying, ever since my gf worked for that two months years ago, she has returned to live in China, so at the moment, she isn't considering to work in sg, partly she isn't very educated to work as S pass or ep.
She used to work as a singer in ktv joint, but as we all know, normally such jobs means the work permit isn't really registered under the ktv company itself. As hard as she is honest with me, she really couldn't remember the details of her work permit as it was many years back. All she can recall is that she did have a work permit, worked two months n returned to China cos it wasn't suitable for her.
Why I didn't get pink ic cos last time young, didn't think so far, really regret now. And yes my family of 6 including me are all SPR, grew up and studied here since younG.
We did apply for ROM before but we passed it cos I later on found out bout this law.
If we get married outside n she gets denied entry to sg is a big deal to us cos we are planning to live in sg especially when my parents and friends are all here. I just called mom and they asked me to appeal through isubmit. Tried to make an appointment to meet the controller of work pass but wasn't given a direction.
Issit better for me to head down straight instead of asking them through helpline?
No comments. Since I can't think of anything positive. You can marry, and fight for LTVP, maybe 10 years later she may be allowed in.Peezahut wrote:My family are all blue ic. So should I just get married overseas? But forgo chances of her entering Singapore in future?

MARRIAGE RESTRICTION POLICY
11. Mr Steve Chia Kiah Hong asked the Minister for Manpower (a) under what basis can the appeal of a Singapore citizen who had a relationship with an ex-work permit holder, resulting in the birth of a child, be granted approval for marriage; and (b) in view of our declining population figure, will such relationships resulting in the birth of a child be given easier approval for marriage by the Ministry.
