Longer maternity leave if you are PR v EP?

[hogsee]

Hi, was wondering if other people had any experience of whether you get 3 months maternity leave if you are a PR rather than an EP holder (I understand it is 2 months if EP). Also can CPF be offset against maternity costs if you have no company insurance? How soon can you spend accumulated CPF?

I work for a small company and am the first pregnant EP holder. This is a surprise pregnancy, we were contemplating taking up PR anyway as we will be here for a long time. If anyone has any thoughts, please do share!

thanks so much

Surprise pregnancy? What? Immaculate conception?

Pretty much. Doctors had said it was nigh impossible! Any thoughts on PR v EP?
