gotta_think wrote:Can a person apply for a PR without company's sponsorship? My situation is like this, my agency will only endorse pr application after you completed 1yr of service. Originally, they said after 6months, but recently, they just changed from 6months to 1yr. I am just wondering if applying without employer's information has a chance of getting approved? I am planning to apply 3months prior to my 1yr, as I understand it will take up to 3months before you will see the result. Thus, should i get approved, i already completed 1yr with them.
Some colleagues were sponsored by them and they got approved. Only 1 person that I know of did not make it. I wonder what happened? This only means that applying with Employer's info is not a guarantee of getting one. Should I or Should I not apply? Pls help....
Hope someone could help with their inputs. Thanks!

Per ICA, Annex A being filled up is NOT a sponsorship nor endorsement nor a silver bullet. Your agency is being dishonest - deliberately perhaps. Note how they had no qualms about changing the previous agreement of 6 months to 1 year (perhaps then to 2 years?).
Just do it.

Congratulations, with that level of paranoia you'll make a great Singaporean! In other words, I don't think that'll be a problem -- just don't slip your PR application into your briefcase and then threaten the hotline operator with "consequences" when they can't locate it.kitin82 wrote:As from my understanding, we can actually check our PR application status by calling the ICA hotline and request the status from the operator. Will the number of times you call up to check be recorded and do you think this factor will affect the outcome of your application?![]()
Any input is much appreciated!!

But why bug them - official timing is 3 months and cases I've heard are from 2 weeks to 2 months max. Mine was 1 month 1 week.
That is, however, the official policy for Canadian PR application. It WILL affect the speed of your application there...

No interview encountered either, good luck?Eric from the Netherlands wrote:I never had an interview in the whole process of applying for the PR...
Within 6 weeks I received the Approved in Principle confirmation letter, no interview. Then had to go down to ICA in Aljunied, to get my PR AIP. There I applied for the 'full' PR, by showing my contract with a new employer here. 3 weeks later I received the letter saying my PR had been fully approved. No interview again.
Which interview are you peeps referring to?
Eric
