Why the hurry? To increase your chances, wait until you have completed three years of work in Singapore.

By that time you may also be married and have a child, which will increase your chances further.

@beppi Hi, thanks for your reply. Having PR status early gives me a sense of peace since EP is on renewal basis. Furthermore we plan to buy a resale, so having PR status early help us achieve our goal of having our own home before having kids.

@kelvinsen I can understand your reasoning - but these are NOT points ICA will take into cobsideration! For them, it matters only whether you will contribute to Singapore eceonomically and socially in the long term - and for that having proved yourself for a certain time is certainly important.

@beppi

Thanks for yoyr reply. Do you reckon applying early and  possibly getting rejected would affect future application?

@kelvinsen There is a fine line between being dedicated towards a task (which is positive) and being despeate (which is negative).

I recommend you wait until you completed three years of working Singapore, to show dedication to the country. Try to also, during this time, accumulate other points to strengthen your application - social engagement or a (preferably male) child are the easiest options!

lol dont listen to beppi, my indonesian chinese friend, male. just graduated from ntu and applied after 6 months working, As long as u r chinese with EP u will get it lol. he got it in 5 months. I malaysian chinese applied same time with him but pending for 10 months. you will get it

@Crazy pizza Hello, thank you for your sharing,  it makes me feel hopeful

I am surprised he got it earlier from you, especially since you are Malaysian Chinese as from my understanding usually Malaysian are preferred
