REP renewal for dependent PR

Post by bcheng74 » Fri, 09 Jul 2021 5:36 pm

Asking on behalf of my friend

My friend is a dependent PR (obtaining PR through spouse who is the main applicant PR from PMET route).

If my friend subsequently chooses to work overseas and the main PR continues to work jn Singapore, will my friend’s REP renewal be impacted after five years?

Cheers

If working overseas and not residing here, then yes, will definitely be impacted. May get a 1 year REP to give time to either get a job here, or get affairs in order to leave.

Thanks for the reply.

BTW, Isn’t REP renewal done by main PR for the whole family?

Honestly don't know, but do they want to gamble? The key here is whether or not the individual is residing in Singapore. Obviously those records are easily obtained by ICA as far as entering and exiting Singapore are concerned. Myself, I'd be wary of burning bridges in a new Covid World.
