Hi everyone! First of all, thanks for all the input, certainly helped to clear up some questions!


Just thought I would clear up any misunderstanding or confusion in my original post - my family does intend to stay at our own place for the long term (not just weekends). Including after my child is enrolled in P1 and beyond, we are intending to stay here.

My question pertains primarily to this period before the enrollment - i.e. while my child is still in K2, and due to work commitments, we find it easier to stay at my in-law’s place during the weekdays (once again only during this period until my child is enrolled in primary school, after enrollment we are permanently staying at our own place for weekdays and weekends).

hello all!


I tried looking for an answer to my query in the forum threads but couldn’t really find a satisfactory answer or I may have missed it.

Just wanted to know what constitutes "residing" in this case.

For example, I have got a place near the primary school that I want to register my child in and we are definitely staying here for the 30 months requirement period (and more). However, due to my spouse’s and my work requirements and arrangements, we need to stay at my in-law’s place during the weekdays and can only spend entire weekends at our registered address for the foreseeable future.

Does that constitute "residing" at my registered address?

Thank you in advance for any advice!
