My Wife Got Her LTVP+

The whole process is exactly the same as LTVP, only difference is when completing formalities, they will say whether it's 1 year or 3 years, it's that simple. Well, 3 years is good, no need to keep renewing every year, can save some money. Oh and the card also looks exactly like LTVP, only difference is there is the word PLUS behind.

Next is PR, still waiting for the update, hope they approve it so I can apply BTO, sigh.

Thank you for this very informative blog! Just a curiosity, how long have you two been married and do you have any kids? I got my first (1 year) LTVP 3 months ago and currently applying for a LTVP+ since my Singaporean wife just gave birth a month ago and thus should theoretically be eligible for an LTVP+ version.

Still waiting and wondering about the outcome as we're renewing waaaay before the expiry day of my current LTVP.....

Appreciate your response.

Hi San,

Thanks for visiting and glad you find it useful.

We have been married for 3 years and 3 months now, planning to have a baby again next year. My wife was pregnant earlier this year but unfortunately she suffered a miscarriage, well, too bad.

Yeah, if she has a baby already then the LTVP+ should be on its way ;)

Congrats to ur wife! My husband just got his in principle approval for his LTVP. We had already submitted all the hardcopies of the documents to ICA since he was on a valid work pass whilst applying for LTVP. How long does it take for the LTVP to arrive after we complete the formalities at ICA? Thank you!

Hi MTGS,

Thanks for your prompt response. Just a little update, My wife and I went to pick up my LTVP+ 2 days ago. We were waiting at the ICA for approx. 2 hours (or that's how long it feels :)) before they finally gave us the pass. My next goal is now to get a job here.....

Keep up the good work. Your post about other stuffs (stocks, air con etc.) are pretty interesting and educational too. I'll sure be back to read your blog from time to time.

Cheers buddy.

Long-Term Visit Pass - Plus (LTVP-PLUS)

http://www.ica.gov.sg/news_details.aspx?nid=12665 Good news for those of us who cannot get PR for our beloved spouse, because the Singapore government has come up with a enhanced long-term visit pass called LTVP-PLUS or LTVP+. I'll sum up the key points in the FAQ provided by ICA so you don't have to go through one big page. Do let me know if I missed out anything or correction is required by dropping a comment. GENERAL LTVP+ will be in effect from 01 Apr 2012. LTVP+ holders will enjoy extended duration of residency, public healthcare subsidies and easier access to employment. No separate application required for LTVP+; an application for LTVP will automatically include your spouse for LTVP+, if eligible. LTVP applications submitted from 01 Feb 2012 will automatically be considered for LTVP+. The first approved LTVP+ will grant 3 years residency and subsequent renewal will be 5 years. Current holders of LTVP will be considered for LTVP+ on next renewal. If holde...

How to Marry a Thai in Singapore

You should refer to here -  https://www.rom.gov.sg/reg_info/rom_marriage.asp Please spend some time to go through and understand the information on that section (legal provision, other information, filing of notice, solemnization and etc), if your still not sure, feel free to drop a comment here or you can use their FAQ . The ROM website did a really good job of putting together the information that you need in a well-organized manner. I've done it once and I think the guide is very easy to follow. The only hiccup I've had with my marriage is during the  Appointment for verification & Statutory Declaration where both of us were required to read out a wall of text and my wife had difficulty getting past the first few lines and the counter guy got fed up and told my wife to stop. Definitely my oversight as I didn't arrange for an interpreter beforehand but luckily, there was a licensed interpreter at the scene and we managed to get her to do the interpretation ...
