Dear all,
Hoping for response regarding PR chances ,
My husband is a single pr ( almost 14 years in Singapore )
Industry - engineering services , local company , working in the same company since coming to Singapore. Very stable job scenario and opportunities to venture into freelancing.
Annual pay - 120k-130k
Cpf - OA(160k), SA(50k) Medisave (around 52K, now overflowing to SA)
Education - bachelors from India, local industry related certificates from Singapore.
Spouse ( myself)
Masters degree ( local uni) , worked prior as network analyst but now SAHM , kid in local school(P1). Got ploc last year, but didn’t attempt for job.
Got ample documents to prove financial stability via stocks and government bonds.
1st time( 2012) - after getting married applied and got rejected. He was approved PR only a year back ( think 2010-2011) , his cpf statement didn’t reflect nice numbers.
2nd time(2014) - reason stated economically not sound. Household income was around 110-120k.
3rd :applied in 2016 and rejected after nine months. While the application was in progress, I quit job due medical reasons. Husband salary increased after promotion. However became single breadwinner status and income averaged at 100k.
4th time: Applied last year( after two years wait).
Changes since last time- husband salary increased along with few promotions, cpf as well. Son started primary school. Expected further increase this year, but then again things has changed.
Familial ties: his sister family- Singapore-spr household. We didn’t add it so far in our application because of disputes within family.
Husband applied for singaporean in last quarter of 2019( after pr application).
1. Should I start working —> this is the most pressing issue for me, I had few health issues before( not contiguous nor lifelong implications) , parental or sibling support was very limited, maid didn’t workout as expected , so had to call it quits. Since the kiddo is in P1, thought of starting to work, but due to covid don’t think it will easy to find a job.
2. Should we include the sister’s family in the application to highlight familial ties ?
3. His job role is not that very ludicrous in upstream countries. Once we get the change in citizenship it is forever( god willing, including me).
We were advised by a acquaintance that I must start working and go for resale properties and then apply for pr/citizen. We are kind of okay with the suggestion, but due to the nature of job the person holds, we are still considering it.
Let me know, if I need to change my position from SAHM to FTWM.
