I have applied for PR 10 months ago and it is in process, if I changed my mind what's the process?
What's your profile? High chance they will reject you and save you the "trouble" 😏
it is there in his previous posts
Everything except salary. But yea I see a very generic looking Indian couple earning what is apparently a high income (reference to wd40's reply). So probably the ICA will sort out his decision for him.

In the event that he is lucky, forget about future PR applications and probably his kids too.

^ its not the salary that is the problem.And I am not a member of any welfare societies with no history of volunteering ( Does this even work or do you get negative marks for trying too hard :D as apparently Indians do try to ' game ' the system )
Hence it's probably the job profile :-k
The regulars here will probably have a better answer.

Main reason is the quota and the high profile job in finance where you may move out easily anytime that is causing the rejection.

Is that your combined salary (including wife)? If you really wanted that pr and to start a business, you could have probably found means to start that business, employed locals and probably improved your chances of becoming a PR. As it stands, Singapore doesn't care about whether you love it here, it only cares about what you bring to the table.

Thanks Guys for taking time and responding . Basically thats what is my feelign don’t understand why ? If i could move quickly would have moved by now rather waiting almost 9 years and if i could have started business without PR i would have but being a financial professional my business domain is regulated and for me to start i need to be licensed independently and large investment , so its chicken and egg situation . I am not in rush and was never in past . But after so many years still feels what is lacking in profile or its just sheer unluck ? Salary is my own ,wife is homemaker . Any ways i am also clue less as every one . No harm keeping hopes alive . Thanks again for your inputs . appreciate!

I am working as electronic engineer in semiconductor company. Take note that the PR application is for my wife who is currently a LTVP holder without any employment, so there is a chance to get PR for her under my sponsorship? ( as i thought it is hard or not possible to get PR for unemployed person, cos no CPF later?)

Updating the community with a datapoint FWIW:

PR Rejected in about 4 months

Brief of profile: Mid 30s, Double-income-no-kids Indian couple (investments and healthcare industry respectively). Second application since moving to Singapore.

----
Couple of pointers for those scrolling the posts, while waiting for their PR results (my 2 cents):

1. I made the mistake of getting an 'agency' to help with my first PR application. It was before I knew of this forum, or had much info regarding how the process works. IMO, agencies are a complete waste of time (as senior folk on this forum have repeated ad nauseum).

2. Singapore PR is a bit like a lottery (especially if you are an Indian national); treat it as such - meaning, make sure you have a back up plan to achieve your goals (if immigration ranks high as a life goal). Its wonderful if you get it, but spend time thinking about the downside scenario and planning for one.
----

As for my wife and me, we've decided not to apply again, and move out of SG in the near term.

I read that the SG government cares if you transfer money out of SG. Is that true? As an American, I don't have many investment options other than moving my sg income to a US brokerage to invest.

I dont think so it is real. But they may look at your financial credit rating to make sure no issues?
