Chances of PR

Post by Throwaway_293864 » Wed, 23 Aug 2023 10:21 am

Nationality: Malaysian
Age: 21
Race: Chinese
Gender: Male
Marital status: Single
Applied for: Myself only
Education: Local diploma in Food Science
Length of stay in SG: 4 years, 8 months at time of application
Pass type: S PASS
Occupation: Retail
Salary: ~ S$ 31,200

Several notes:
1) My entire dad's side of the family are Singaporean Citizens, but Im not. I cant apply PR through them because there isnt a marraige certificate for me to submit. However, my dad's name and IC number is reflected in my birth certificate. Would ICA still consider this as a familial tie?

2) I worked for another company before but I do not plan on including them in my application. Would this affect my chances?

Based on what you said, it is going to be really difficult for you this time. The following is just my opinion.

1) Having your SC dad's IC in your birth certificate should be enough to consider that you have a family tie. However, ICA might think that you did not apply for citizenship in your childhood to show up for NS. Even if you say reasons that you dont have your parents marriage certificate, still ICA may not buy that.

2) If you attempt to hide your employment history, i think it is better not to apply. It is well informed in the application, that if you did not declare the information truthfully it may end up in some consequences. You really want all this troube?

So your dad SC but mum M’sian when you were born? And your parents aren’t married but register you as M’sian instead?

Given that you are male, that clearly signals to ICA that your parents (or dad) tried to let you skip NS.

One of the forms you sign indicate that you let ICA contact IRAS if necessary. If your previous employment reported your earnings to IRAS, ICA would find out mah.

1) Assume your parent is not marry when you are born.

Citizenship
An illegitimate child’s citizenship status depends on whether the child’s mother is a Singapore citizen.

The Constitution of the Republic of Singapore requires the mother of the illegitimate child to be a Singapore citizen in order for the child to acquire citizenship by birth. Therefore, if the child’s mother is not a Singapore citizen, the child will not be able to acquire Singapore citizenship by birth even his or her biological father is a Singapore citizen. Having an Adoption Order will not, in itself, affect the citizenship status of the child.

============
I think Singapore government will not consider it as familial tie.

Technically, in the eye of Singapore law, you dont even have legal right on your dad everything include estate.
