permanent resident application.. pls advice..

Post by coney » Wed, 12 Sep 2007 3:00 pm

:???: hi. i am married to a singaporean citizen and im holding employment pass.

by papers we are still married but we stayed in different places.

now, i wanted to apply PR but im confused as may be rejected because the address showing in our IC's is the same address that we previously stayed before.

is it possible for me to apply divorce first or apply PR while we are still married??
Is is possible for me apply PR even though we stayed different places.

Pls advice.. Thank you..

:???: indeed. You're married now and you're going to divorce? Are you applying for a PR on the basis of being married to a Singaporean, or on your own merits if you're holding an EP and working?

Permanent Residence Query.

Post by coney » Thu, 13 Sep 2007 2:46 pm

Because as far as I know.. you can have a fat chance if you are married to singaporean though Im working.

But my question is me and my husband is staying in different place now and address we both have in the IC is the previous address that we stayed too. Neither me or him change the address.

Now i wanted to know can I still apply for PR even though we staying in different place?? but by papers we are still married.

will ICA asked me questions why we are staying in different place but the IC address is not updated..

Im so confused.. Any help will be greatly appreciated..

What should need to do.

1.Can I apply for PR even though me and him staying in different place?
2.Should I need to update my own IC's address and apply for PR? will the ICA find it suspicious?
3. Should I divorce my husband first before applying for PR or proceed for applying while still married even though we stay in different place?
4.My company will apply for me PR.. but Im afraid that me and husband stayed in different place that would create difficult situation on my part.

Pls help..thank you..
