Renewal of Ltvp holder

Mine is not a case of renewal but I was granted LTVP+ for 3 years upon my first application.

I understand that applicants typically get LTVP+ if they have been married for at least 3 years, which is the case for us. We are also expecting our first child and they will be a Singaporean citizen when born. I remember the application included a question about whether I was pregnant. I think that may have played a part.

The difference between LTVP and LTVP+ is the duration of the pass. LTVP+ is longer, i.e. 3-5 years. But otherwise I believe the rights are the same.

The LTVP+ was originally invented to allow some LTVP holders to work. That was changed later, so for some time, I believe, there was no difference. And now they have made LTVP+ the longer-term pass. I think there might be more changes coming.
"Merit" means how the authorities think Singapore would benefit from the presence of the applicant. There is nothing you can do about their assessment. But having (Singaporean) kids and/or a good job is of course a BIG plus.

Thank you for the reply 🙏🏻

Thank you Beppi. Any idea what kind of changes ? Will it affect us.
