It should be fine as they require six payslips. If you want to be more sure, wait another 3 months then?

Sounds good to me. They don't say it has to be from one employer. BUT. Is another job hopper the kind of employee that the country wants as a potential citizen? They are trying to beef up the gene pool, not just add another that will blend in totally with the local population. So they may just ask you wait for an additional 6 months and file again. It's the luck of the draw or ICA officer who handles your case.

From my own experience Singapore is still what it used to be an money matters. I had only worked for two years here in London, had only one P45 for the first 2/3 of the first year when I applied and couldn't get a detailed income breakdown from my employer as was mentioned in the notes and py application was still approved. Reason I guess: good salary, as I am earning Sterling here and live in London. If I was living somewhere in Birmingham or Belfast I would earn maybe less than half because cost of living is much lower and you are in the lower tax band, but as ICA requests gross salary and doesn't seem to consider Purchasing Power Parity or location and tax rates the bottom line is still: with a high income and young age your chances are good.
