Well, all is well.......keep tryin........
I don't understand why should you get p.... off. Its not a right to get immigration into a foreign country its a previledge. How easy was it to get to Australia? You can't take anything for granted. You need to work towards it and luck plays a factor too.
There are people who go abroad and invest in their studies and then hope to get a work visa to break even and then earn more and many dont even get the chance to break even. What makes you feel that SG owes you a life here?

Hello ………Sorry Rev – where in my post did I say
- it is my right to get visa/immigration
- and from where did you conclude that I said any one owes me anything
I said I am p….off because of no info/reasons are available.
Mate thanks for suggestions and advice – you can keep your preaching to yourself.

If you are rejected inspite of submitting the documents that means you are not wanted. They dont give any explanation to anyone as to why they made that decision. I dont think any country gives. Like I said, its not a right its a priviledge and by saying that you are getting p.... off makes it look like you think they owe you an explanation. They dont.
Think about it. If they kept giving EPECs and PEPs to anyone and everyone who is eligible, this island will get overcrowed with people and there is no assurance that they will eventually find an employer. If you had a found an employer willing to employ you and you were rejected for your EP then its a different story, even then they dont owe you an explanation.

Must be hard to look for soul mate in Oz, eh ?
Are you an Ozzie or just PR ?
Why don't you do the reverse apply under Ozzie Citizen instead of Indian Citizen.?
Do you understand where I am coming from ?
Ozzie can live and work in Kiwiland and English land for 6 months Visa Free Entry. You stand a better chance. Moreover your Super will cover more coming from OZ

Mate !! Which ques do you want me to elaborate ?
The soul mate or the citizenship ?
If the soul mate thingey , I do not want to be any part of it. I am straight as the eyes can see and I do not have special orientation on gender choice.
For citizenship, pose the ques then I will try to help
