Hi - I have scoured the board looking for more information on the topic and found very little. We have hired a couple maids in the past through agencies but have not had great luck with them.
We do know of a helper in Taiwan who is interested in working for us in Singapore (my wife's sister helper). I realize everyone goes through an agent here but I want to avoid going to an agent so I can avoid the high upfront loans but wanted to find out if anyone has had experience processing the papers themselves. I was also going to go to MOM on Havelock to ask about the process too. I have done the process myself in Hong Kong but the HK immigration process is different from here.
Any helpful input on this scenario would really help!
