Hello darlings,


I would like to get insights from anybody who has any advice for PR applications! Here is some background of myself.


I'm in my early 20s, on a student pass for a bachelor's degree. in a month's time, I will be graduating and starting my new job as an s pass holder.


I'm thinking of applying for PR next week, but I fear it may be rejected due to my transition from student pass to s pass... I have never applied for PR before and grew up in SG for over 2 decades.


any advice? I know that S pass holders would have to wait for 6 months before being eligible to apply for PR so what is the likelihood of getting rejected due to this transition, and if rejected, how long do I have to wait to be able to apply again?


Thank you in advance!!

Apply after you have completed three years of working here, to have any realistic chance!

@beppi Hello! Thank you so much for your input. To clarify, does 3 years include accumulative 3 years or consecutive 3 years? I worked for 1.5 years before enrolling in university, which is recorded under my Tuition Grant bond that I would need to serve.

The longer you have worked in Singapoe, the higher your chances are. The exact criteria are not published by ICA.
