The negatives:
- Racial quota is against you.

- You’re still single, SG prefers married couples to boost the population.

- Salary is a bit high and you’re seen as a “flight risk” as you might easily leave for other countries that give you higher pay.

Another positive/negative is your occupation/industry which you just provided. A lot might depend on which bank you are/were working for during the past two years, considering all the financial crimes/losses being incurred by some banks with slipshod security in the software side of things.

If you didn't get for 300K, it is surely not the salary that is the issue. So, 350K wont make any difference for that salary part.

My guess is that the outcome will be the same.

Appreciate the feedback and responses! Sounds like it’s a try and hope for the best with ten years stay.

Yes, please write to ICA and update the information about birth of your son, even though they will already have this information.

Good chance to get PR.

Hi sundaymorningstaple,

Wanted to ask something.
I know every time you suggest waiting for at least 2 years before applying again after one's SPR application is rejected. Given 16+ years of your experience here, how many (in percent) followed this advice and got approval after waiting like this? Not necessarily, after the second try. Could be rejection, two years, rejection, two years, approval. The sort of folk I mean is non-CM, not married to locals, not billionaires who have created 1000s of jobs for locals, not exceptional brain surgeons. Rather, ordinary Caucasian, Eurasian, SEA or Indian families with children, in the IT, finance, or other sectors where one doesn't really stand out, with steadily growing income.

Asking because what I have stumbled upon on this forum was several stories of Indian, Filipino and other non-CM applicants applying every two or three years and getting rejected each time.

I am one of those who initially got rejected a few times, waited and then got my PR after N years. Later converted to a SG passport too. Growth in career and patience is very important. But it is not easy. Initially I was impatient too and was reprimanded in the same forum :) :wink:

N is just a number which will vary from person to person.

So many people forget that each application is unique and processed on a case by case basis. There are multiple parameters involved.

What works for one person does not work for another unless you are a clone of a successful PR applicant. Asking such a question is not beneficial other than trying to beat the system, perhaps? Which again, is not encouraged at all.

SMS already said before, you buy your ticket and you take your chances.

It seems that your chances are very low. Unfortunately, that's the reality. You might feel hopeful that there are stories such as SF's, but remember that he was one of the Indian applicants who beat odds that were heavily stacked against him.

Better option would be to work on alternative plans. Other countries where you stand a better chance.

Apply after 2 years of marriage or better after a kid. Will likely get it.
Apply on his own - slim chance, apply with you as sponsor - too early.
