I'm a fresh graduate who hold a First Class Degree Hons Cert in Finance issued by University of Hertfordshire, U.K. However, the institutions that I attended for my degree was INTI International University (Malaysia), in short my degree is obtained through a distance learning program.
Previously I have been offered a job by a leading bank in Singapore. The company tried to apply an spass for me, however, It was rejected at the very first place. After that the company went for an appeal, however, It was rejected again. At the end, the company terminated my letter of appointment, so currently I'm Jobless.
I was advised to apply for Landed Permanent Resident as I have just graduated on November 2010. What do you all think about my case? Should I go for Landed-PR? Please advice.
I'm looking forward to hear from you all. Your help in this will be greatly appreciated
Regards,

Mr hsiao, i am an indonesian, i graduated from university of Newcastle, Australia, but it is not considered as distance learning as the dean (school representative) is in the institution where i was studying at, PSB Academy.
I have applied for spass at NETS, it was rejected. and now, NETS is still trying to appeal for me. may i know how long it takes for you to know the result of your appeal? because im worried mine will also get rejected (chey!!).
I have tried to seek advice for landed PR, but apparently it is not any better.
While applying for landed PR, the processing time is about 6 months to 1 year, and while in that timeframe, you wont be given any kind of special visa for you to stay in singapore. in manner of speaking, you need to go to your homecountry for that time frame, doing dunno what.
and, my friend also got rejected for his landed PR after waiting around 11 months. so i think, better dont take any chances. maybe its better to apply for epass or spass again. who knows u got lucky. my friend has been approved after 3 appeals submitted. it shows that the company is not giving up on you and really needs you. so i dont think there's any reason why you cant be approved as well. good luck!
