Yes, one year seems like a long wait. Perhaps you should email and ask if any other documents are required.

Normal waiting time is 12 to 18 months. This has been the case for the past couple of years. I wouldn't worry until you reach 18 months. If they need additional documents they will contact you and tell you 'exactly' what they want. Do NOT deluge them with documents not requested else it might take even longer.

Thanks for the replies.
I hesitated to send an email to ICA now.
Some cases mentioned they received rejection or approval within 1 month after sent an email to ICA.
My purpose is to get an update from ICA, a little more details about my application perhaps.
Hmm (send or not send an email) which action is the correct way?

Wait patiently
The maximum that they will say is they are looking at your case and will let you know once the result is ready. I am 100% sure that they wont even reveal 0.1% more than this on your application details. Don't rush and get a negative result.

50-50 chance if your spouse has sponsored your PR.
If you wait for your child birth and apply 1 year after that your chance is very high.

Interestingly, since they went fully digital with the PR applications last year, the base level of waiting time has actually increased significantly.
People of the "favoured" category still gets their PR within 3-4 months.
While all "maybe" candidates now waits 9-15 months (whether accepted or rejected), whereas previously those applicants got an answer within 3-4 months.

If it is a very straight forward rejection, i know a couple of them who got the results rejected in 3-4 months.

Clear cut rejections seemed to take around 1 month in the old days.
I guess they're just stringing the maybe's and the no way's further along these days...
I wonder if the number of applications increased or decreased after going fully digital. It would seem to indicate the former.

I judge that going fully digital is allowing them to do a deeper vetting process. Going digital makes it easier to keep records but doesn't shorten any investigative process.

There's a lot more caution around who they pick for PR after the blowback in the last two GE. PR's once were appreciated by most Sinkies but now just seen as a nuisance unless you realize you came in during the early years (pre 2000).
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!

Quite true, the property buyers have too much cash on hand to splurge on overpriced cars and properties.
