Employment pass for wife

[harisadu]

Hi

Am moving in Aug for PHD, University is sponsoring LTSVP for my wife.

My Kid is 6 months old. Will he too need a separate pass or he can move in with mothers pass as an infant?

Is it possible that my wife's request for Employment pass is rejected when she moves in here on a LTSVP ? Or is it uncommon ?

Thanks

Are you moving as a SC or PR or EP?

If it is EP, then your wife and kid have to stay here on a Dependant pass

If it is PR, then your wife and kid can stay here on a LTSVP

while being on a LTSVP your wife cannot work, whereas when she is on a DP she can apply for a LOC and work in Singapore

Am moving on a students pass

My wife will get sponsorship from univ for a LTSVP, she can get employment here as she has spoken some of the companies.

But conversion of the Visit pass to employment pass wont be an issue ?

Thanks

Hello! She CANNOT work on a LTSVP. End. Period. If a company wants to hire her, then they will need to apply for an employment pass (EP). There is no 'conversion'. Her application will be judged on her qualifications AND the company's explanation of why they need her instead of local talent. Just like everyone else who applies for an EP.

And of course your child, being a separate person, needs a separate visa (e.g. LTSVP based on your SP) to stay here.

I know enough people who converted, from DP tp EP or LTVP to EP, but that is not conversion per-se - their prospective employer applies for a EP, and upon approval, from DP you move to EP - if you call that 'conversion' you are right ..

Did I see something wrong ??
