Just bordering slightly above zero, truth be known. F&B isn't the best industry to be in here. Add to that, and the fact that the Government tends to look down on VN citizens when it comes to immigration here. You buy your ticket and take your chance. It's about all you can do. If you don't' you wont, if you do, you still might not but at least there is a chance, however small.
Thank you.

Hi There!
I am planning on applying for PR application soon. I have heard various accounts where the applicants submit "more" than document list from ICA.For example a CV, resume, certifications of volunteering, testimonials from managers/company/locals etc.
My question is, does it help? From what I understand, in the application form there may or may not be a place to add more information or documents. It is not mentioned anywhere that it will be there OR it will not be there.
Is it something I need to work towards? I have done plenty of volunteering but did not think much about getting the certification etc. I do have a few but that is from university days (~5 years ago). After that I simply did not care if I get those. Could it affect my application if such things are not provided?

Looks like you have done your PhD in PR application. No one helps better than yourself.

You may share your profile. But volunteering will not help unless may be you did for last 10 years.

You may share your profile. But volunteering will not help unless may be you did for last 10 years.
oh Alright. Then it will not be of much impact since I have been in the country for less than 10 years
What about the other documents mentioned such as CV, resume, testimonials from managers/company/locals etc?

chances are slim, given the nationality and pay.
Application may prolong, because every case is different. If rejected, reapply after 5y of AY

Hey there, would like to get some perspectives on my chances on PR. Assume low, due to be under 'others', but hope to get some further feedback from the experienced folks here.
Nationality: Brazilian
Age: 32
Race: Caucasian
Gender: Male
Marital status: Single
Applied for: Myself
Education: Bachelor Degree in Top BR school
Length of stay in SG: 3 years, previously lived in China for 3 years on top Chinese company (if that helps?)
Pass type: EP
Occupation: E-commerce Category Management on Top Tech Firm
Salary: S$170k base + Bonus + Stock Options
Work experience: 11 years
SG Tax Assessment: 2 years (soon 3)
I think chances are slim but would like to hear from you guys if you any recommendation that could help the odds.
Thanks!
