Will my wife-to-be PR be approved?
Hi,
I've been working in Taiwan for 1 yr, where I met my wife-to-be. We're going to get married soon. However, after that I should be going to Europe for maybe a yr for work, with her following me.
We'll be in Singapore for a while after we register our marriage and I'm thinking of applying PR for her.
Is there any chance of it being approved? It seems that nowadays, it's much harder to get PR.
We're thinking of coming back to Singapore after 1 yr and by the time we're back, she'll be a PR already.
Thanks!

Do not bother to apply for PR now, it is a complete waste of time.
LTSVP is the first step if you intend to stay put here, then go from there
It may take longer that you expected especially you are working overseas and have not set your roots here

The big question is why do you want permanent RESIDENCE status when you won't even be living here?
I don't get this. PR gives a right of legal abode not offered to a standard EP... the ability to remain without a job. Yet you don't even plan on living here in the next year.
If I was ICA, I'd be laughing as I put your application in file 13.
Try it when you're actually ready to live here.

OP
PR can only be applied after you have been living here for sometime. On the average it ranges from 2 to 5 yrs living here. Most of them will be on LTSVP prior to application.
If you not living here, working here and having your family here, you would not possibly get it . Even LTSVP will be impossible.
ICA will view your case as marriage of convenience, tax not paid in SG, newly married etc as their contentions to deny you though they may not state it specifically.
To be PR in SG is a privilege not a right under the constitution. You have the right to be a citizen of Singapore if you are born here but you are not automatically a citizen of SG if you are born overseas from a SG parent hence it becomes a privilege to apply to be a Sger by descent

Not neccessarily

Would agree, you'll need to convince the ICA that this isn't just a marriage of convenience so give it at least a couple of years, probably longer to be safe.
