Thank you for your advice. I will wait out for 1-2 years before applying for PR.Lisafuller wrote: ↑Fri, 12 Mar 2021 12:14 pmThe biggest worries are your low pay and your lack of work experience. It helps that you have studied in local institutions and are on a bond. I think it may be best to wait until you finish serving your bond. By then, you would have lived in SG for 10 years, worked for 3, and you may have a higher salary. Good luck.
I see. Thank you for your input. I will take note of that. I will wait out for a bit before applying for SPRsundaymorningstaple wrote: ↑Sun, 14 Mar 2021 12:31 pmIt's possible but not probable. You will need to have worked for at least 2 years (or three tax assessments) but honestly, your ethnicity is going to be a difficult hurdle to clear. Being raised in a Chinese household has about as much chance as I have becoming ethnically Indian and I've been married to one for 37 years. Will not fly at all. Having said that I do know of one engineer here who is ethnically Burmese and recently gained his SGC. He is a railway engineer with the MRT and is a long time RC member (this is how I know him as I'm also a long time RC member). I believe it was in 2019 when he got his SGC. So it IS possible, but will be hard. Wait till you have at least 24 consecutive month working experience.
Thank you for your advice. I forgot to include in my post that I am actually male. But yeah. I might try it sooner than I planned.PNGMK wrote: ↑Mon, 15 Mar 2021 4:51 pmYou actually have a reasonable chance (young female and Chinese). I would encourate you to consider applying AFTER this years tax assessment (late April). While you salary is low the gahmen has admitted to having troubles filling their slots for PR and your age and salary are actually in line (i.e. no one expects a young person to be earning 10k). It's not much money to try and there are no downsides to a failed application. If you are who I think you are, you will present fairly well as someone who can integrate into Singapore quite well.
And his user name is Burmese "Chinese". I'm guessing this is the source of confusion.sundaymorningstaple wrote: ↑Mon, 15 Mar 2021 8:26 pmPNGMK, you missed the fact that he is neither female nor Chinese. He is ethnically Burmese. But as I've already noted, I wish him luck.

Yeah, I noticed that. I think I might need to change my username.smoulder wrote: ↑Tue, 16 Mar 2021 10:40 amAnd his user name is Burmese "Chinese".
