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.
