You should not assume ICA are idiots. Look, you are a frequent traveler, you knew you had to pick-up your luggage but you didn't know you have to clear the immigration? How many international flights have you seen or heard about where you need to pick up personally your luggage and not clear the immigration? I am pretty sure ICA saw it as an attempt to enter the country, so now, if I were you, I would be very careful and do my best not let the situation repeat again. IMO, wait at least one year before any other attempt to enter Singapore and try to contact ICA before doing it. They will unlikely tell you anything solid, but at least there will be some evidence you tried to do it right.leomarie wrote:Hi all!
Good evening, I would just like to know if what i am going to do about my situation. - Last October 2015 I was deported in sg to Philippines due to my frequent visit to sg. so after that I went back to Philipphines and almost every after 2 weeks I travel to brunei,Malaysia and Indonesia until now.so what happened last February of this year 2016 - I went to Malaysia and I had flight back to Manila by tiger airways and its connecting from KLIA to changi to Manila - so when i reached to changi airport I went to the information and ask for an assistance about my luggage if how can I get it because i had to catch a flight again back to Manila and they pointed the tiger airways help desk, i went there and told them that I need some help to get my luggage and they told me I need to go through immigration. i had no idea at all. so i went through the immigration and before giving my passport I spoke to the officer first about my concern - I told him that I don't want to go out and go through here I just need someone to get luggage outside because I have a flight back to Manila. But he get my passport and bring it to the office and ask me to follow and they deport me again which was not supposed to happened. so now I am having a 2 record of deportation October 2015 and February 2016. What should I do?
Thank you for you help.
God bless everyone.
Lovely fiance you have there. Are you still Single?leomarie wrote:I think the reason of my first deportation was i traveled and stay a lot in sg compared to the other countries that I've been traveling. from May 2015 i was already flying in and out sg but staying there like 5 days and fly to Jakarta,ho chi min for 4 days back to sg stayed like 1 week and fly to brunei for 1 week and back to sg again and fly to KL. The reason i traveled a lot for this countries (Asia) is because of the work of my fiancé - wherever he traveled he wants me to go with him, ( and about my work if I have?- yes I have - I am self employed - I work in online-and I have a small clothing business in the Philippiines) that's why I can travel with him anytime.
- back to the topic - there was a time during October 2015 I stayed almost 20 days then fly to brunei for a week then back to SG - which was this time I was deported when i tried to go back to sg, Which I understand due to my frequent stay. from May 2015 to October 2015 in and out sg.
so now, I need your advice if should i wait for more than a year? Or try to send a letter of appeal?
Thank you!
Will appreciate your advice.
Don't fly budget airlines .... they are all point to point I believe, you cannot do a "transit" with budget airlines if you have checked in your bagsleomarie wrote:Hi all!

That's what I thought too; budget airlines don't "do transfers." So, if you have two legs, even if the same budget airline, your bags will come out the conveyor belts.Barnsley wrote:Don't fly budget airlines .... they are all point to point I believe, you cannot do a "transit" with budget airlines if you have checked in your bags
If you fly the full service airlines your bags will checked all the way through.
I don't know in this case, but my first point was/is, why didn't the fiance' vouch for her, when she was turned away the first time ?BBCWatcher wrote:Anyway, to net it out, do a little research and plan ahead. The safest thing to do is pick a transit airport where you have (or can obtain) a visa or have visa waiver privileges since there's always some risk you'll have to stay longer than you expect due to a missed flight connection or a baggage snafu.
