Frequently Asked Questions - Singapore PR

---

 Eligibility depends on your current visa status and profile. Common categories include:

• Professionals and skilled workers holding an Employment Pass, S Pass, or EntrePass
• Spouses and unmarried children of Singapore citizens or PRs
• Aged parents of Singapore citizens
• Investors and entrepreneurs under the Global Investor Programme

 At Tristar Immigration Services, we conduct a free initial assessment to determine your eligibility before you begin the process. 

 On average, the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) takes 4 to 6 months to process PR applications. However, some cases may take longer depending on the applicant’s profile and documentation completeness. 

 With Tristar’s structured approach, we ensure your application is complete and compelling before submission — reducing the chances of delays caused by missing or incorrect documents. 

 While ICA does not disclose exact criteria, common factors include:

• Employment stability and type of industry
• Salary and contribution to Singapore’s economy
• Length of stay in Singapore
• Educational qualifications
• Family ties and integration into society

 Our role at Tristar is to help you highlight your strengths in each of these areas, ensuring your profile stands out.
