Same here, still pending. I am expecting to wait at least 2-3 weeks till result is out. My ‘apply’ button is still there though. Wishing you all the best!
Press apply pr. Then press "myself".
If you able to proceed, then is high chance rejected.
If not able to proceed, will show "* You have a pending application, please wait for your result". , then high chance approve.
Reverse engineering and testing with the Gov Systems is not good and prohibited. Don't do !
Haha yea I don’t dare to try also. I will just continue waiting for the result. Either way, it’s still 50-50 :)

Congratulations! and obviously patience paid off here. This was good to see as it not very often we see ethnic Indonesians gaining PR. Was pretty commonplace 15 years ago, but then they did away with the LPR scheme (I, myself, in my former role as an HR Manager hired two during that program). Again, congrats and thanks for coming back here to let us know. Power!

Hi All,

Long time lurker here. Wanted to share our family’s PR application story as I think some may have a similar profile as I. Note that this is not a successful outcome. Our result was received more than a few months ago now, but figured this to be worth sharing still. Unsuccessful story’s are just as valuable as successful ones when shared correctly.

Time of wait for result = virtually 2 years (week here there give or take)

Profile -

Husband:

Nationality - British / Aus duel citizen
Ethnicity - Chinese
Years in SG - 10+ years
Age - early 40’s
Industry / Company - Tech / MNC EP holder
Salary - $250k+
Tax returns - 10 years all with same company.

Wife:

Nationality - Aus / Philippines duel citizen
Ethnicity - Filipino
Years in SG - 10+ years
Age - late 30’s
Industry / Company - DP since 2017
Salary - N/A
Tax returns - 8

Both hold degrees from reputable university in AU.

1 son - 5 y/o, DP holder, born SG. Citizenship same as husband.

Applied previously for PR > 6 years ago, but had lower salary / wife had salary so joint income was the same - rejected in 5 months.

Applied this time with son, born in SG. Son ethnicity on birth certificate is stated Chinese. All documentation requested for application provided, no missing info. Rejected most likely due to quota levels, which is understandable.

No contact from ICA for this application. Previous application requested for additional details of family members.

Happy to answer any questions if it helps. To those applying currently, best of luck, wishing for you a successful outcome.

To us, we’re not disappointed with our outcome - other than it took a long time for result, but the pandemic did begin not long after our application was put through.

It doesn’t change our position or preference to remain in SG, would have helped us solidify our local status, but it is what it is, our lives remains the same as it was before our child was born, up until today. Grateful to be in SG as it is. :)
Hi, thanks for sharing. May I know how long have you been waiting for the result? 2 years and the application get rejected.

Thanks @sundaymorningstaple :). 2 years of waiting and the result is not successful. I thought that the longer time of waiting, the higher chance you may get, but it seems wrong.

Why did you think the longer the time it takes the higher the chance is of approval? Where did you read this/how did you form this hypothesis?

In fact we have been saying time and time again that the length of application process has absolutely no correlation to the outcome of the application.

Hey, Mystic! :-)

Like her oblivious reading skills, her researching of our archives is also wholly inadequate as you are correct. We been saying this till we are blue in the face and just about the time we think we've managed to teach people another pops up like "whack-a-mole". :P

Sadly, while good news for you, many other anecdotal reports of rejection. Your first paragraph and your second paragraph are not really related and have no bearing on each other. You are making an assumption that the first happened because of the 2nd. It more like it happened because of the progression but the 2nd paragraph is the same even for an eventual rejection notice.

In another Chinese language expats forum, people report no rejection if the button disappeared and cannot reapply if they apply under themselves (i.e. not sponsored by others)... Maybe they got such information from there.

Thats right. I have a friend approved 2 weeks ago also couldnt reapply.

All the posts i see here (maybe got miss out some) in this forum , they only reported that their upload button disappeared but they NEVER go try apply new application and see if they can proceed to the application page.

Upload button disappeared is just indicating that result will be out in 2-3weeks time and it is not a indication whether the application will approve or reject. Must do the apply pr test and see if u can get the pending error.

The mods & admins of this forum do not recommend trying to “break the system” with these “tests”. I won’t be surprised if they patch this bug in the future.

Don’t make lives difficult for other people please.

Don't play trial and error with Gov Systems. The last thing one would not want is PR approved, but withdrawn because of the violation of an improper use of the Gov system.

When someone has been waiting for 6 months - 1 year, what is an extra wait for 2 weeks going to make ?
