Hi
I'm a British graduate leaving to seek employment in Singapore.
I have read the ICA and MOM's guidelines on entering the country and obtaining an extended SVP or employment pass.
I have all I think I will need; A return ticket for 4 months after I enter the country, some savings (about s$4000), travel documents, exam results certificates.
I was just wondering if anyone had any advice on a) getting into the country and b) getting an extension to my SVP?
As I say, I have read all the official requirements etc, I was just wondering if anyone who has been through the system had any advice.
I have had a search through the forum, and couldnt find anything specifically on this topic.
Thanks in advance
Joe
EDIT: Apologies, forgot to mention I will be staying with friends, and will of course have their address.

Relocation advice
Re: Relocation advice
Joe, when you arrive, you will get the 30 days without Visa, do not say that you are going to look for work! I assume it would go against you, becuase normally Singaporeans come first for jobs. Think you may have a problem with the SVP unless you have close family here. But ater your 30 days , a trip to the border, may get you another 14 days. but remember they are wise to what goes on, many people want to get in here.Joe Simons wrote:Hi
