All About Getting Priority Registration

I just want to give you my experience for \"community service\". I have serviced for \"community service\" more than two years, to ensure I can get my child without the stressful balloting, but I got the worst news yesterday, The chairman of RC smiled to tell me that I was only \"obsever\" in past two years, not really member, depend on PA policy, he cannot issue any letter to me into 2B of Registration. He just can issue the letter for member who have serviced the RC more than two years. You knew, I attended almost events in past two years, twice monthly. I spent too much time in past two years but nothing repay. :stupid:

Oh no.. I know you must be so mad now... I do not mean to rub salt into wound but as quoted by citygal from the MOE's website:

\"37.How do I qualify as an active community leader for registration at Phase 2B?
Current serving executive committee members of the Residents’ Committee (RC), Neighbourhood Committee (NC), Citizen’s Consultative Committee (CCC), Community Club Management Committee (CCMC) and the Community Development Council (CDC) are eligible to register their children under Phase 2B. \"

Of course, I am members now, but the chairman told me only can issue the letter for the member who have serviced more than two years, means, I must service more than 4 years(two years of obsever and two years of member) if i want to got the letter, currently I only have 1 month, very disappoint, why didn’t tell me when I join RC?

Did you mention to the Chairman from the very beginning that your intention was to get recommendation for P1 registration?

Yes, but he didn't say anything, just let me fill in the application form.
My RC is very new, only 3 years more.

most people are unclear about the PA rulings. Afterall, it only happens once a year and not many cases each time.

Maybe being new, he was also not aware of the requirements? :idea:

What is your plan B now?

It is my fault, so just wait for 2C, no choice and wait for moving to Australia

this is not true, I thot I read it somewhere that you just need to be 1 year member if you wanted the letter? but I do know the deadline for PA requested is by early June.
