It is good to have something to plan on improving. However, dont be mislead that doing a PhD in a local university will always lead a pr approval. It really depends on the area on which the PhD is done if it aligns with SGs future development requirements. Not all local bachelors/PhDs get approved for pr. Since, your spouse's field of study seems related to life science/ psychology, i am not sure how ICA views doing a PhD in a such related fields. Moreover, PhD is more of a mental battle and can take around 4yrs or more (if full time) and also the cost (if not in scholarship).

My point is that she can do PhD if she is really interested in it and is willing to go through it. If it is .....

Your mind is set, just go ahead and apply. You won't hit the lottery if you don't buy the ticket.

Seems like it took 7 months of being outside Singapore to realise how valuable Singapore was to you.

If you're looking for reassurance, you probably will not get it here.

If I go one step further, I infer that you're Indian, female, probably single (or married with no kids), about 35-40years old. Of course i could be wrong - but based on the inference, I'd say it's not so likely an ICA officer will look at your application and click approve.

May I know where can I find the local address is mandatory because I have checked all faq on ica website but I couldn’t find it :roll:

Secondly we can sacrifice but real reason is not want to save on rent. My husband is Greek and he stay with me in Malaysia with spouse pass. If Malaysia immigration do surprise check and find out we are not living together he can lose his spouse pass #-o

Hence I was surprised when you mentioned you could submit the PR application without a local address, and the application is even "pending"
