      If I’m using grandparents address for registration (less than 1km) and I’m doing pv does that still fall under 2C?

        Using address or your family staying there for at least 1-half years when yr child register for the particular sch u hv in mind? Different intent

          If you’re doing PV and using grandparent caregiver address, you’ll fall under 2B, but downgraded to 1-2km category.

            Sorry I don’t understand your question. All this is very complicated for a first time p1 mom. Using their address and they will also be there for the next 6 years.


            What if I change my address to their address? Doesn’t this make everything easier since my parents will definitely not move for the next 6 years?

                OK, I try to be direct & diplomatic. :nailbite:


                Use address grandparents’ only when you & yr child will be staying in that address which u hope to use to be given priority for P1 registration. Can’t use or be found out if u’re staying >2km but using address just to get in. It does matter if it’s grandparents, it matters if u’re physically staying for at least 30 mths.

                It’ll be good if u’re going to stay there for yr child’s primary sch duration but what happens if u register the address but can’t get in? Will u change address for ano prime sch?

                  No problem, please be totally honest since I’m really here to learn about this complicated process. So if I’m physically staying with grandparents for 30 months, which phase will that be? Does doing pv hump my chance up?

                      Do PV will be phase 2B, else 2C. Definitely chance up since you can apply both phases.

                        There are two parts: phase and distance.


                        Phase refers to when you can register. Most people will start at 2C. If you PV, you will move up a phase to 2B. It has nothing to do with distance or where you live.

                        Distance dictates your priority within each phase. It’s broken down into 3 groups: < 1km, 1 to 2km and > 2km. Using a caregiver address, you will not get better than 1 to 2km.

                        For details, please refer to MOE website. In fact, one should start over there first. There’s detailed explanation, YouTube videos etc to help you understand.
