Hi,
I wanted to see if anyone else is thinking of leaving Singapore for a limited period of time due to risk of another lockdown and if this is even possible?
My EP is valid for 2 more years and my residential lease expires in August 2021. I am thinking of returning back to my home country with my family for a limited period of time as we've not been home (UK) since January 2020 and my wife is pregnant with our second child, whilst our families have still not met our first child due to the travel restrictions and quarantine requirements. I will still be able to do my job from out of Singapore so this is really geared towards seeing our families so if it stay in Singapore its likely that won't be until 2022 all things been considered.
Does anyone know if you need to hold a valid residential address in Singapore throughout the period of your EP, does it impact your EP? i.e if we chose not to renew our lease and then find another condo when we return back to Singapore.
Or can you use your office address or a friends address temporarily until you return to Singapore?
Ideal situation would be we don't renew our lease, return home once vaccinated in Singapore (or get vaccinated back home), put all our belongings in storage and return home for 3-6 months pending lockdown measures here and then return back to Singapore to have the baby at the end of the year.
My concern is do you legally need a valid residential address of your own?
If anyone has done this or thinking of doing this, it would be great to get any insight if this is even a possible consideration.
Thank you!
