Sergei dear, this is how Singapore does it. If it is part of the requirement for you to appear yourself with the documents during the appointment date, that's what you have to do.Sergei82 wrote:Why I have to wait to apply longer than waiting for results - that is the question. WTH I'm supposed to do there other than bringing docs? And why I can't submit them online? Exercise to combat increasingly sedentary lifestyle in Singapore?
And if you can't wait, keep checking the PR website for last-minute free slots at nearer date. It works, really.
And this appear-in-person process eliminates the many possible agents who may submit on behalf of X Y or Z, ending up flooding the whole system .. and stop those applying 'just for the sake of being allowed to apply' .. see how many agents tout Canada, Australia, US .. etc. etc. ??the lynx wrote:Sergei dear, this is how Singapore does it.

well, look at the bright side: previously, you get a slot within 2 months, and then wait for 6 months to 9 months for a replySergei82 wrote:Why I have to wait to apply longer than waiting for results - that is the question.

Now, you get a slot 6 months later, and then, get an answer in 2 months or so, so it evens out ..
cheer up mate ..

Applied for PR together with family Oct 201, after 8months of being here, and we got our PR after a wait of 5months, April 2013.Wd40 wrote:When did you get your PR? May be thats the most crucial part.PrimroseHill wrote:have some patience.
It isn't all doom and gloom either. We got our PR and we have all the strikes against us as predicted by everyone here but we got it in the end, so there maybe light at the end of the tunnel

Imagine how many of them will do a no show, without cancelling. I am sure some of them will book a slot 6 months ahead and many of them may not even have a job here and would have left the country by then.
Those slots that you see becoming available is because they are changing their appointment to another date.
