PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
Dear Expats
Wondering if anyone have come across a situation of PR renunciation of 14 year old kids.
What are the complications as from 13 years we need to apply for exit permit.
Can we just apply for 1 year exit permit and cancel at 14th year ?

Re: PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
You can renounce PR (formally with ICA). Not sure of the consequences as technically 2nd gen liable to NS.

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!

Re: PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
This has been discussed time and time again. Please use the search engine in the Strictly Speaking subforums under the General Forum. Look for posts by Mad Scientist. There is a wealth of information (probably the largest collection of NS issues in any location on the internet).

In addition to what we have on the forum there is a recent article here:

Note the quote: "Second-generation PRs are allowed to renounce their status without serving NS, but this will be taken into account if they apply to return to Singapore to study or work."

Re: PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
Also at the bottom of this link below. I realize and understand that you have be under some sort of external pressure but considering your child already has an obligation to do NS it may make more sense to keep PR.

Knew couple of them who did this and after 10 years when their son want to work and stay with parents in SG, they are unable to secure anything more than a 30 days SVP. My recommendation is NOT to renounce the PR.

IF the child is a boy that means he needs to do NS.singaporeflyer wrote: ↑Mon, 27 Jul 2020 3:47 pmKnew couple of them who did this and after 10 years when their son want to work and stay with parents in SG, they are unable to secure anything more than a 30 days SVP.

Re: PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
I know about 6 ex PR's who deeply regret giving up PR. That sweet CPF is not worth it when you have major events like job offers in Singapore or Singapore schooling coming along.

Re: PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
Thanks PNGMK, Singaporeflyer, Sundaymorningstaple for your replies.
My situation is, i will be relocating to another country when my son is 13 years old as company has asked me to move, so planning to relocate with family.
To be frank this is not to evade NS as we completely aware of PR obligations when we applied.
But when we move to another country and kids study there for 5-6 years , am not sure if they will be happy to comeback and do NS.
So after we move, thought of weighting for an year for kids to settle down and then take decision.
Understand if we renounce kids PR, then kid can't come back for work or apply pr again.
Thanks again.

Re: PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
This is a tough one and why I often recommend that people with kids (esp boys) don't apply for PR unless they plan to live the rest of their working life in Singapore. The govt sees it the same way and that is why "portable" career types don't get PR often now.Mas169 wrote: ↑Tue, 28 Jul 2020 6:23 amThanks PNGMK, Singaporeflyer, Sundaymorningstaple for your replies.

Re: PR renunciation for 14 years old kid
If your son renounces his PR, than for the foreseeable future, it is better that he does not return to Singapore except as a tourist. The Government has been ratcheting up the screws on this since the 2011 General Election results. It's a vote winner here.
