Change race.
I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

Have been here since 2006, Male and parents are PR... Just curious, any reasons why your parents did not include you in their PR application(s) back then, presumably you have not come of age when they obtained PR?Goodiebag wrote:29 male

If they had applied for you and got approved, you would have been a 2nd generation PR and ________________. Right?

Do you see any other viable options? Change jobs with significant increment, or get rich and invest in Singapore.Goodiebag wrote:Umm wow. Thanks guys.

You can keep changing jobs and throwing $100 at ICA every year, and collect rejection letters, in your own words.Goodiebag wrote:I did change to this job with 35% increment. But apparently from what I've been reading 15k ppl also get rejected for 3 times

You kept asking for ‘other viable options’ but are avoiding the question that could be the root cause of your PR rejections.
Re: PR application 3rd time reject - how to improve my profile
You did request for honest answers.
Getting married and procreating is a viable option for many. Singapore has a Low birthrate and welcomes all attempts to boost it.
However, you seem most reluctant to consider this route for PR, so not many options left to show your investment to the future of Singapore.
Investment in property or other financial instruments is not altruistic, usually selfish. High risk that funds could be repatriated overseas to Myanmar in your case.
Repetitive application is just an exercise that is unlikely to yield any progress. You think this persistence differentiates you from all other PR wannabes? Good luck.

I have friends with much better salary and similar profile.. Just got rejected this month. So slim chance.
Re: PR application 3rd time reject - how to improve my profile
When it comes to PR or SC applications, nothing is impossible as we do not know the exact criteria being evaluated by ICA. For example in my case, i got my PR at the age of 44 after working on an EP for 2+ years but i did not own any property in Singapore. Likewise, when my SC was approved 4 years later, i still did not own any HDB or private property here (or own any businesses too).Goodiebag wrote:They got it when I was finishing uni and cannot sponsor me anymore.therat wrote:2006 stay in Singapore at the age of 16 yrs old.

Just wanted to put my point accross to say that every applications will be evaluated on its own merit so don't give up hope to re-apply in future after your situation has changed ie marriage to local, different job sector etc etc. Btw, i am not married to a local
