All About Home Addresses

Hi. This question may sound silly but I hope someone can help provide me some clarity. I read the registrations rules many times but can't quite understand still.

I am in the midst of selling my flat and moving. If all goes well, I should move into my new place around June-Aug.
If so, which address do I qualify to use for the 1-2km?

\"If so, which address do I qualify to use for the 1-2km?\"
Which of the two qualify you for between 1-2km? And what does the other one qualify you under?

Logically, you have to use the new address because if there's a ballot, and you have made use of the distance priority, you will not be allowed to move > 2km.

Hi floppy. Thanks. I think I've managed to find my answer


\"Even so, a child who gains priority admission into a school through his/her distance category is required to reside at the address used for registration for at least 30 months from the commencement of the P1 registration exercise on 30 June 2016. If - See more at: https://www.moe.gov.sg/admissions/primary-one-registration#address-used\"

Dear experts, can ask after Phase 2C, can we still change address (really move to another place) to register 2CS?

Thanks

I believe you can.

I have an HDB flat within 1km of Rosyth school, and currently I’m staying at Sengkang area. I’m interested to register for PV in 2018 as my gal will be due for registration in 2019 for 2020 P1 intake.


Any advice how Rosyth does shortlisting if PV registration is too much overwhelmed? I have no problem to move back to 1km of the school, but my question is on when should I move back. Is my chance of getting PV lower if I stay out of 2km during PV registration?

If I’m lucky and got PV registration successful, when should I move back? Is there requirement of minimum stay at the address BEFORE for P2b registration?

Thanks a lot and any advice or comment is appreciated.

Not sure whether your address affects the chance to become PV. It might.

Regarding your last question, I don't think there's minimum stay before P2B registration, but you have to give yourself enough time to settle the logistics, especially the address in your NRIC.

Thanks for your input, I also FEEL it might affect the chance to become PV.

Need some advice.


My girl is 5 years old , and will need to register for P1 next year for enrolment in 2019.

Our new property is only expected to TOP in Q4 2018 or Q1 2019. Would it impact the eligibility of registration for the school which is within 1KM of our new property?

I read that there is a minimum occupancy period (30 months).

If its true, I may have to start looking for a place to rent near the area now.

Your query is covered under MOE FAQ. Take a look.

Hi,


When registering for P1 under Phase 2C, does the school look at both parents’ address in NRIC or just one of the parent to determine the distance?

Reason being, my address registered in NRIC is within 1 km but my wife’s registered address is still with her mother’s home address which is more than 2km.

If they differ, the husband's address first.
