Hi, I've been browsing the forum extensively and gathered that generally for 2nd-Gen Prs who have renounced their PRship prior to serving NS, it is very likely that they would be unable to reapply for PR or EP/Student passes in the future.
My case is similar but not in its entirety. I was a 2nd-Gen PR who was offered a scholarship to study in Singapore at the age of 12 and when signing the contract to study, my parents were advised that it would be better to cancel the PR itself to avoid complications with the scholarship. As such, my PR was cancelled when I was 12-13 years old before school in SG started. After which, I studied in SG for 4 years and was re-offered the same scholarship to continue my studies in a JC which I did for the next 2 years. I never had problems when I reapplied for a student visa but that was presumably because it was before the age of NS conscription.
Currently, I am studying in the UK and plan to return to SG in future but was told by a friend who renounced his PR prior to NS enlistment that I have no future in SG because I cancelled my PR and did not serve NS. At this stage, it is impossible for me to apply for a PR and I fear that I have already been black-listed and am thus unable to apply for an EP even if I have a job offer.
What are my chances of returning to SG if I have the intention to remain and work in SG? Thanks for any advice.
