no assessment needed to be done

I have a daughter ready for P1 registration next year. Currently we're foreigners (expats) who just arrived into this country.


From reading the newbie posts, I see most instructions for P1 registration are for citizens and PRs.

How does the registration process for foreigners work? Yes, I see the priority for foreigners are last. But what is the process? timeline/schedule?

Also, I see from here http://www.guidemesingapore.com/permanent-residence/singapore-pr-pros-and-cons.htm that I can apply for PR six months from now, and possibly get PR next year. But that may already be too late for my daughter's P1 registration.

Is anyone or has anyone been in this same situation? Any advice?
