Should foreign spouses with SC kids be granted PR?
-
My cousin, O level education, married a foreign wife.After five years, with two kids, his wife is a singapore citizen.His wife is only pri education.
-
I suspect they have different quota and treatment for different nationality. To my personal view (and what I seem to be hearing), Vietnam and Phillipines doesn’t seem to be one of those that is easy to get PR/Citizenship - A friend of mine married a Vietnamese - they have 2 children and the eldest will be 5 this year. Still on LTVP.

friend of mine married a china wife.
she has been working here for 2 years, MBA holder, speaks decent enough English, softspoken, can pass as a Singaporean
Still no PR, on E-pass, every year they get very anxious whether her work contract is renewed.
They want to start a family
She once told me it was quite upsetting that the beer auntie in the coffeeshop downstairs has PR (I cannot verify this) and she doesn't.
I mean like, duh? :siao: -

No need to verity. Gov already say that those in hawker stalls and coffeeshops are not FTs but are spouses of Singaporeans and PRs.She once told me it was quite upsetting that the beer auntie in the coffeeshop downstairs has PR (I cannot verify this) and she doesn't.
I mean like, duh? :siao:
Maybe immigration waiting for a baby.

not sure. I think beer auntie is from the heydays 07-09? where PR is very cheap. Could be that scenario

besides, she is a talent! The talent is for pouring beer and easing the stress of middle aged Singaporean uncles who work very hard by making small talk. If you want to calculate by the how many people she has 'helped', it should be quite a number = )
(not notti one hor, chit chat, joke a bit, flatter the uncle a bit, it goes a long way) -

I’m not sure about discriminations with respect to nationalities. My impression has been that they are trying to avoid cases like the 小龙女, i.e. making use of SC to gain residency. But of course, the seemingly ad hoc ways of granting visas, PRs and citizenships make me wonder what’s actually in the criteria/checklist for granting PRs etc...and did they either adhere to the criteria too strictly, or too loosely? :scratchhead:

maybe Immigration is wary and strict -
because too many 小龙女 around, go after trying to seduce coffee shop Ah Pek into marrying them to give them a status in SG, so that they can get PR / SG citizenship. -
