      will be staying there whenever my hb overseas....does that consider staying there?

      So when your DH is not travelling, both of you will be staying at your own residence? So your husband doesn't stay at your mil's does he? So he can't change his IC to reflect your mil's address because that would not be the truth.

        I must say we are the ones responsible to our child’s well being in their health. If one parent rented a place very near to school but do not stay near school, it’s the child who suffer on logistics. Why should MOE care? I don’t see a need for MOE to interfer the interest here.

          MOE's not worried about the well-being of the kid. The issue here is that priority is given to kids who live within 1 and 2km of the school. People are abusing this priority by falsely declaring their official residences, hence depriving others of a place at popular schools.

            These parents who use their rented place have gone through effort to do these arrangements and they are not guaranteed places for some popular schools… I am impressed. Its not easy to shift and make all these hassle. Its not easy for MOE to track all these cases. Parents should take the responsibility to make sure their kids are not tired to wake up very early or reach home very late after a long day at school…

              Hello,


              Need advice on the following:

              Can I ask what Hdb document does the sch recognize if my nric address has not been changed to my newly bought place?

              Cos based on my new address, I will be < 1km to my choice of sch but current address will be > 2km from sch.

                The school only recognises address on ic. esp dad's ic as I have been made to understand. You need to ensure your ic address is new add at time of registration i.e. between June -Aug depending on which phase u r registering in.

                  Proof of Purchase of Yet-to-be Completed Property

                  An original Sales and Purchase document is required if the address of a yet-to-be completed private property is used for registration. The date of commitment by the developer in the Temporary Occupation Permit (T.O.P.) must not be later than 31 Dec 2013. In the case of a yet-to-be completed HDB flat, the Agreement for Lease is required.

                  Parents must move into the new property within two years of the child’s entry into Primary One.

                    Thanks Tankee for sharing the infor, my new address is a resale HDB and will definitely be able to fulfill this clause \"Parents must move into the new property within two years of the child’s entry into Primary One\".
                    Just that we are not able to change our IC addr in time for the registration but we have the letter from HDB that we bought the place.
