All About Home Addresses

[Jennifer]

Usu. rental tenancy is for a period of at least 2 years, very seldom 1 yr or less. Also most have penalty clause of early termination.

Thank you so much, vks2010, jtoh & Jennifer - for prompt reply.

appreciate it.

will inform my friend about potential repurcussion. She got to decide herself, see if worth the risk & be prepared for drastic consequences, if discovered.

sharing - i have another friend who is staying at Chancery court (the condo nearest to ACS Barker). She stayed there for past 30 years. This was what she noted, observed and comment:-

=================================================================================
that is what many people do …

they rent a unit at Chancery court (Dunearn Road). Then change their address on the IC, (at least 6 months beforehand). After son get into ACS, they change back the address.

once in ACS won’t kick the kid out (unless got whistle blower) ! only thing is - be prepared to fork out $ 2.5 to 4k rental per month …
don’t think MOE has so much time to check.

if I were ACS principal , I’ll be flattered that a parent would go to such an extent!!

don’t think rental around there could be $4k now


I just seen one unit HDB flat exec apartment in Bishan, rent $4k

$2.5K rental? Impossible. Renting the address maybe? Even $4K is unlikely.

I heard from sb staying in Blossomvale that most rental apts in this condo change tenants every 2 years.


I would think the lower pri years are formative years. if your friend really wants to get into the sch, it is better to stick to the rental plan for at least 2 years instead of exhausting the young child with a travelling of > 2 km distance every sch day. She has to consider CCA timetables too.

Possible if it is one room flat. Which means rent whole apt of one year, don't live there, change address before registration.

But if caught, one parent would be charged in court and kid kicks out of school. So is it worth it?

In a condo next to ACS? I seriously doubt.

possibly those old apartments opposite Thomson Hospital may be within 1 km of ACS

but is bad for the kids especially when such scamming kena whistle blow and kid got expelled from school

[phtthp]
