[LTVP] Female Singaporean and Nepalese Man

Kaylee1995

Hi,

I am a 24 yo female Singaporean and am dating a 23yo Nepalese man. I am hoping that if by any chance that we get married, what is the possibility that I can bring him to Singapore? And him finding a job here?

Some background:
I am earning about 3k sgd. He on the other hand is earning less than 300sgd in Nepal, he took up higher secondary certificate in business studies (I think that’s equivalent to our A-level/diploma?)

He actually wants me to stay in nepal with him. But I hope to stay in Singapore as the standard of living is so much better, and I also do have a 5 room HDB under my name together with my siblings, so he can stay with me.

He have yet to visit Singapore but I have visited Nepal. We don’t plan to get married anytime soon maybe in 5 years time if things worked out.

You can’t apply LTVP till you get married to him. If your plan is not getting married for next 5yrs then why are you worried about whether he will get an LTVP or not? First n foremost think of present and near future, that how he will get a job in Singapore, if he gets a job and his work visa approves then he doesn’t need your LTVP. He may apply PR 5yrs down the line (even after marriage).

Now, coming back to your query, it’s very unlikely that he will get LTVP under your sponsorship as your salary is too low. Good luck

Thank you.. I am worried about whether it can work out or not, whether we should invest our feelings or just stop before we go too deep.

I’m wondering how do those with low income married foreign lady with no income.. will it work for our case too?

His qualification is low, I’m not sure if he can find a job in Singapore without our ltvp. We planned to get married within 5 years time if things work out but if things are doing ok, we might get married earlier.

There are plenty of jobs in retail sectors and other industry where foreigners are hired. He should try there but before that he should have hands on experiences. As you said previously that he is working in his home country then try here with those experiences.

Other than that, you can set up a small business where you can hire him. Try to explore all the possibilities and check with your friends & family circle to see if anybody can help you. LTVP is not that easy and with your income it’s more difficult. Good luck

So, is your relationship a long distance one? Has he visited Singapore before?

Kaylee1995

Yes, it’s a long distance one. He haven’t visit Singapore before yet but will do it early next year. Ive visited him a few times

@Kaylee1995 Hi Kaylee, I hope you can still see this thread.. I'm really surprised that your situation is exactly the same as mine. My bf is a Nepali too but I'm in a more difficult situation as I am 7 years older than him.. I'm now in my 30s and we've been together for 3 years. Just want to know if you are still together with him or how has things work out for you? Looking forward to your reply~

Can an ex Gurkha marry a Singaporean lady? - @Tabitha75


Generally yes, but with some caveats:

  1. Members of the Singapore Gurkha regiment are not allowed to marry anyone other than a Nepalese citizen whileon active duty.
  2. Once their job ended, it depends on which type of work visa they help during active duty: Either Employment Pass (EP)  or Work Permit (WP):
  3. Ex-EP-holders face no restictions and can freely marry Singaporeans.
  4. Ex-WP-holders must apply for permission to marry a Singapore citizens.Marrying without permission, or marrying even though permission was not granted, is punished with lifelong ban from entering the country.
