Re: Citizenship approval chances?
Are you going to start work soon? Your chances now is Ok too. But if you apply after 2 years of work, will be very easy. Also, where are you originally from?elfenteufel wrote: ↑Wed, 17 Jun 2020 5:07 pmHi, i would like to apply for Singapore Citizenship and wonder what are the chances of getting approved.

Re: Citizenship approval chances?
You can also apply while you are still a student under the new eligibility criteria, instead of the usual economic scheme.
"4. Are a PR studying in Singapore; and have been residing in Singapore for more than 3 years (of which, at least one year as a PR); and have passed at least one national exam (i.e. PSLE, GCE ‘N’/‘O’/‘A’ levels), or are in the Integrated Programme (IP)."
Rumors go that the processing time for applications made under this category is way shorter than the economic scheme.

Re: Citizenship approval chances?
You are not eligible to apply as of yet.
Goodness of profile or otherwise is irrelevant until the time you are actually eligible to apply.
You don't fit the any of the 5 eligibility criteria specified by ICA based on the information you have posted.
