Spouse employment process for US citizen?

[frederic111]

Hi, my wife and I are moving to Singapore from the UK in a couple months for my work. She has a great career going with a UK audit/consulting firm, who may or may not transfer her from the UK to Singapore. We're both US citizens (she's also Russian). She's making around $6,700SG Gross / month now in the UK, which I think helps her for the permit?
What's the process for her getting a work permit and what are her chances to find a job???
My work is of course managing the permits for me, but have said they won't help her, but that it's easy for her to get a permit and work...true?
THANK YOU!

Russia doesn't allow dual citizenship.

No difference for US citizens in terms of process. Find a job. Company applies for employment pass. If gahmen satisfied she brings skills not readily available employment pass is issued.

She is not making enough for a PEP, which expires after 6 months anyway. Her best bet is to get transferred with her company, and they will handle the EP. The second best bet is for her to get a DP attached to your EP, come here and search for work.

Note that you find work, then ask the gahmen via a work permit, whether or not you can take the job.
