I got my LOC approved this morning. thanks for ur supportsundaymorningstaple wrote:Just hang in there. If the money is there, they are tightening up a bit on LoCs (primarily people with high pedigrees but accepting low salary admin jobs. So, they take a little bit longer, but you will probably eventually get it. MOM likes to play a waiting game I think, just to see how serious the applicant is. Just keep fingers crossed.

Are there any academics out there who have been through this process who could guide me? I am not sure what to do next.

Re: Information on Employment Pass (EP), Dependant Pass
Hi Moderators,
I had applied for a Singaporean-PR in Jan 2014, which got rejected in May 2014, here's my profile from then:
My Nationality: Indian
My Education: MBA (best institute in India)
My Salary: SGD 18,000/ month (in Singapore)
My Age: 29 years
My Job: Investment Banking
Wife's Location: Working in India
Wife's Nationality: Indian
Wife's Education: MS (USA)
Wife's Salary: SGD 1,000/ month (in India)
Wife's Age: 29 years
after which I got disheartened and left Singapore (in August 2014) and lived in London and Mumbai. After leaving I realized how much I missed Singapore, so now I am back in Singapore in a new job. My current profile is:
My Nationality: Indian
My Education: MBA (best institute in India)
My Salary: SGD 12,000/ month (in Singapore)
My Age: 33 years
My Job: PE Investor
Wife's Location: Working in Singapore
Wife's Nationality: Indian
Wife's Education: MS + PhD (USA)
Wife's Salary: SGD 5,000/ month (in Singapore), working as a scientist for the Singaporean Government
Wife's Age: 33 years
Does it make sense to reapply for a PR now? Many thanks in advance for your help.

Just to clarify: My previous attempt was with 3 NOAs. I had shifted to Singapore when I was 25 and had applied at the age of 29. The change this time around is primarily my wife's additional degree and her job with the Singaporean govt., my profile remains largely the same and have not yet filed any NOAs (since my return).

I suggest you get at least one NOA.
ICA may find it odd you have a gap in your NOA

Re: Information on Employment Pass (EP), Dependant Pass
Any company registered with MOM can apply EP for a candidate. so, your 2nd company where you were offered a job can apply EP for you. You as an individual cannot apply for EP. As long as you submit your past work experience and educational details MOM will assess whether they can offer an EP for you. You cannot do much than this to get an EP.kijan.maharjan wrote:Hi guys,

Re: Information on Employment Pass (EP), Dependant Pass
Maybe both. You and your company need to satisfy MoM's requirements. You need to have the required experience, salary, and education, and your credentials need to be verifiable. Your company has to have followed the hiring process, and not committed an act that would put them on MoM's blacklist.kijan.maharjan wrote:Thank you mate.
