Obtaining SPR for spouse

[previousnextlife]

Hi,
Currently i'm SPR (34-male-Indonesian-Chinese) which I applied for sponsorship for my wife (30) back in March 2012 (Yes this year) and this is second attempt. As now already 3 years and contribution tax 3 years.
We got married at Feb 2009 before got my SPR back August 2009 though skill/professional now with basic $2,7
I realized should give a try after and contribution tax 3 years (correct me if wrong).
Currently she not resident in Singapore and working in Indonesia.

There are couple things concern to me:
1. Change to get my SPR? and stay with me in Singapore?
2. I know that after about 5 years there will option to convert as citizen or back to employement status (correct me if wrong). Which this option can I get my change to do REP? for other 5 years? As my current REP will expire at August 2014?

Aint gonna happen. Wifey needs to be at least on LTSVP in SG> This is not a free ticket to the movie. You got to walk and toe the line like others.
Not true on option to convert. Application for citizenship is from 2 to 6 years as a PR but it will be on separate and totally new application screening. You stay here, pay tax and live here , your REP will be renewed after 5 years duration.
You need to prop up your salary to min. of $3K before putting the next step
