Post new topic

Ajay4884

Hello All,


Greetings!


My Name is Ajay, I relocated to Malaysia in 2018 and currently living in Kuala Lumpur. I applied for RP-T in March 2023 and received the approvals in June.


I would like to create this group to discuss and learn the best practices and possibilities in Malaysia for RP-T holders. Please join in this topic if you are holding the RP-T and share your experiences -



  • Things to do/ consider post-RP-T
  • How do you make the most of RP-T - Socially, financially etc. 


Looking forward to making new friends and learning from all of you:) Thank you!


Regards,

Ajay

@Amy Lau Hello Amy,


In fact, it took less than 3 months - Post my application it took 20 working days for their responses - they had a few questions and needed updated documents (April payslip) I took 1 week to respond to them, and the next 20 working days they responded with approvals.


If all the documents are well prepared and submitted at first time then it should be quite a straightforward process.


I have managed the process by myself via the talent corp portal - I also don't think there is any value addition by the agency in this process so I don't recommend using the agency.


Hope this is helpful.


Regards,

Ajay

Hi @Ajay4884


Does "Declaration of Local Contact Person" matters in application? Do it need to be strong ? I want to apply next month

Hi Ajay.


thank you for starting this group. I am an Ex- Malaysian ( sadly have to give up citizenship), and I want to apply for residency pass. I know it’s been awhile

since you had yours approve are there any tips you can offer.


What are the conditions - do you have to prove financial independence etc.


thanks
