I don't recall a single case for granting LTVP (leaving alone DP) for any form of unmarried LDR couples.

Another question I have JR8, if she came to visit me on a tourist visa, could we get married under singapore law here based on our nationalities and circumstances? I couldn't find much explicit info for this.
Another question, I would be in Singapore on an EP. Would I be able to sponsor her to have her tourist visa extended to 60 days? On MOM/ICA it says SPR's can only sponsor. So I just wanted to rule it out if I definitely can't help her extend a tourist visa?
To add to what JR8 said, and since I got married quite recently - yes, you can, in principle. Anyone can get married in Singapore as long as they are here legally, and for at least two weeks (that includes tourist visas). Of course, you also need to get a free appointment slot at ROM, but if you book sufficiently in advance (max 3 months), that should not be an issue either. Just look for a solemnizer first, I guess.singapore86 wrote:Yeah I understand it just would not fly with authorities.

The only hitch here is that if ROM thinks that this is a sham marriage, or if later on ICA thinks it is a sham marriage, you WILL be in trouble. The latter can normally be alleviated by simply living together, the former is up to the judgment of the ROM officer.
I remember that.sundaymorningstaple wrote:There is nothing stopping you from getting married here, but you will be advised when you register at the ROM that doing so will not increase either of your chances for PR or citizenship at a later date, or for that matter a LTVP. So, it's a gamble you are going to have to weigh yourself.
