SPR apply again or wait? Please advice!

Post by tristanmin » Mon, 12 Dec 2011 3:21 pm

Hello,

We need some advice from you guys regarding about whether we should re-apply SPR again or wait.
First of all, we applied SPR in May 2011 and got rejected after 3 months.
At that time, I (EP holder) was main applicant and my wife was holding DP.
We have been living here for nearly 5 years. But when we applied SPR for the first time I (main applicant) could not submit the 3 years of NOA.

Now my wife is holding SP and able to submit 3 years of NOA. So she could be the main applicant this time. Should we do that?

Should we also re-apply again soon or how long should we wait if you guys suggest to wait?

Regards!

You said you have been living here for 5 years but you cannot produce 3 year Tax Assessment. So which is which.
What do you do before this ?
Where are you from?

Hi,

Yes, I have been living here for almost 5 years but I've studied before here for nearly 2.5 years. That's why I can't produce 3 year Tax Assessments. But for my spouse, she have been working here for over 4 years that's why she can produce 3 year of Tax Assessments. We are from Myanmar.

Thanks!

If you have been studying and in the Higher Learning Institute, then I think applying as family should be OK.No harm in trying. You can be the main applicant

Thanks a lot MS. But one question. If I can be the main applicant, I should be able to submit 3 years of NOA which I can't right now. right?
So in that case I need to wait 1 more year. In the mean time, as you know my spouse can produce 3 years of NOA. So is it the good idea to my spouse to be the main applicant OR we should wait another 1 more year to complete my 3 years of NOA?

I appreciate your help!

Depends on who among both of you is earning more currently and what category of employment pass both of you are on, along with your company background and your roles.

It does not matter as long as you are applying in a family. You are studying prior and wants to set your roots here.
