PR application

Incorrect. Saint had to register when he took up PR under the Family Ties scheme, but was subsequently given a waiver. But you ARE still required to register.

interesting .. I didn't get any letter from CMPB or Mindef - mine was under PTS !

Neither did any of my male friends and colleagues who got PR around 2007-2008, including two guys who got under Family Ties, unlike the previous cases where they did send the letter and then waive them. I left out the females I know ..

Anyway, Mindef works in Mysterious ways I guess

I got a waiver letter within a month of completing the PR formalities

Because 1st generation PRs under PTS don't have to do NS

As SMS has mentioned. I got my letter a month after completing the PR process and had to register

I (30 years old, PTS) got the letter 2-3 months after I got PR. Can't remember the exact wording, but basically said that I do not need to go for NS. Got my PR in Feb this year

Under PTS you just get a letter saying don't have to so NS. PR Under family ties you get a letter saying you could be liable to do NS and need to register
