Hello!
As mentioned, I am a US Citizen and my husband is a Singapore Citizen. We are in the US for the next year, until he finishes school. Our plan is to get my PR while we are still in the States so I can work once we arrive in Singapore. Although I'm having trouble finding information on this.
Anyone who knows/has experience:
- Approximately how long does it take to receive permanent residency while overseas?
- Will we have to go to a consulate here in the US for interviews, etc.?
- Do you still need the entry permits if you're coming into the country with a spouse who is a citizen?
- Are there additional costs on top of what is shown on the SG govt. website?
Entry permit : S$100
Re-Entry Permit : S$10 per year
Visa Fee : $30 per issue (for foreigners requiring a visa)
We just recently went through the immigration process for the US so my husband is now a US PR. However, we had a lawyer so they helped walk us through. The SG process is unfamiliar to us both so any informed input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
