With our expertise in Singapore’s immigration regulations, Assurance Immigration is dedicated to supporting Spouse PR applications. We focus on presenting a strong, well-rounded case by highlighting the stability of your relationship, addressing potential challenges, and emphasizing your commitment to contributing to Singapore. Let us support you in making Singapore a permanent home for you and your loved one.
Applying for Singapore PR as a Spouse
Singapore citizens and PR holders are eligible to sponsor their foreign spouse’s application for permanent residency under the sponsorship scheme (Form 4SC). This scheme also extends to any unmarried children under 21 who are born within a legal marriage or have been legally adopted. Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP) holders, who are already in Singapore, are often well-positioned to transition to PR status with the support of their Singaporean or PR spouse.
While meeting these eligibility criteria is a key step, approval is not guaranteed. However, Assurance Immigration can help strengthen your application by emphasizing important factors such as qualifications, skills, contributions, and commitment to Singapore. Our team offers personalized guidance through each stage of the PR application journey, making the process smoother and increasing your chances of success.
Let Assurance Immigration guide you through the process and help you strengthen your spouse’s PR application, increasing your chances of success and making your long-term home in Singapore a reality.
01 Marriage Duration
It is generally advised to wait at least two years before submitting a PR application for your spouse. This time frame allows the ICA to assess the stability and authenticity of the marriage.
02 Presence of Children from Marriage
Having children born from the marriage can enhance the spouse’s PR application, as it demonstrates a committed family bond and a genuine relationship.
03 Age of Both Partners
The ages of both the sponsor and the spouse are considered, with relationships formed at a typical marital age generally being viewed more favorably in the application process.
04 Financial Standing and Employment
The applicant’s financial stability and professional achievements are important factors in PR approval. The ICA will review the spouse’s income level and ability to support household expenses and fulfill tax obligations.
04 Community Involvement and Social Integration
Integration into the local community is highly valued by the ICA. Applicants who build social ties and contribute meaningfully to society are often viewed more favorably. This includes considering family connections, as well as the spouse’s length of time spent living and working in Singapore.
06 Educational Credentials
The educational qualifications of the applicant, including the reputation of the institution and the potential economic value of their expertise, are assessed during the PR application review.
