Return ticket about 60 days from your arrival? You will get 10 out of 10 visa denial. Start reading old threads we have answered all your questions. Before you travel Singapore, at least you should know the basic requirements.

Next time reach out ICA whether you’re allowed to enter Singapore or not. On their confirmation, you may plan your travel. But, know basic requirements first. We have plenty of discussion about this topic. Good luck

The average visitor remains in Singapore for 3.5 days. If you plan on staying much longer, you need to have a good and valid reason - otherwise they will suspect illegal dealings and deny you entry.
Since an SVP is always given for 30 days only (and extension is not assured), a return ticket after a longer time is not useful.
