Thanks for your response! Husband is actually looking to move to a brokerage firm servicing more diverse markets (agri/energy/financial), but with the same head of treasury role. Do you think that will give a better chance? However for me I will stay in banking.

You will need to be married for at least two years if you don't produce any offspring within that period. No, you will not find it in Black & White but with 17 years of anecdotal evidence on this board. Having said that, can you clarify that you are actually in Singapore and not in NYC where you seem to be posting from. Are you using a US company corporate server based there or a VPN?
I also concur with SF on this as well with regard to the Financial Industry as well (Brokerage Houses are also part off the Financial Industry, not just banks).

Hi folks, trying to understand if I should apply for PR. Only want to apply if my chances are good (don't want rejects on my application as I heard it makes it harder later).
Race: Indian (speak 2/4 Singapore language)
Gender: Male
Marital status: Married (2+ years) no kids; partner is a Singapore Citizen
Work: Managerial role at an American/ Global MNC's Singapore office
Education: Engineering and MBA, both from India
Age: 29
Current income: 400-500k per year (currently on EP)
Length of stay: 1.5 years in SG then gap of 1.5 years and then again 2.5 years
SC Partner age: 29
SC Partner income: 300-400k
SC Partner Work: Similar industry to mine
Go ahead and apply with the SC spouse as the sponsor. If rejected, apply again after having a kid.
Rejects on your application if sponsored via a SC Spouse, won't make it harder for future applications.

As your wife is SGC apply under Family Ties. If you apply under the PTS scheme you might well be considered a flight risk at the level of income you are drawing. Last thing the government wants is to lose highly-educated local breeding stock in their prime. Yeah, I know, it's crude but you've had 4 years of exposure to Singapore Gahment to understand where I'm coming from. And I'm an old dairy farmer which explains a lot! LOL Go for it.

I just noticed at the pending page, there is this additional "ad-hoc submission" at the bottom, with boxes to select "change of address" , "change of marital status", "update of qualification", "change of employment".
Is this something new ? Any of u also have this ???

If yes? I think you must not be too concerned about this. This is just a page for you to submit additional documents ( if they ask for or if there is a change in the application details)

If yes then good lo. I kpo only.
This should be the way for everyone.. rather than everyone individually email them, so hard to keep track. Now people just upload into their system and they can just process from there.
They should also add "job promotion/change of salary".

I got the same alert showing today(it was not there yesterday). However, I have no changes/updates to submit. Do we for the time being not upload anything or upload the same details which were done earlier?

You don't need to upload anything if they didn't request for it.

Immigration consultant is adamant that we have a `strong case` and are `ticking boxes for SG gahman` but I take with a pinch of salt as they want our money...
What do you think ?
In my view chance is surely
less than 5%. You will not need an immigration consultant.
Negative because of
1. Ethnic quota
2. Short stay in SG - 0 Tax filings. We will recommend at least 2-3 filings.
3. Minimum 3-5 years of working in SG
You & SMS know your stuff, as we’d already paid the Immergration consultant (a waste of money fwiw…) we decided to buy our ticket and take our chances ~ application was swiftly rejected around the 4 month mark ~ just before the end of the year I think that it was around 23rd Dec or something.
I wanted to add the data point to help to contribute something back.
Next plan for us is to wait two full tax years and apply again circa Jan 2024 ~ hopefully we’ll meet the black box selection criteria and have success on the next application.
