Registered Baby for Year 2020 K1

Image
Today went to register baby at PCF, have to go down to the centre of your choice to register, by the way today is the last day for Singaporean children, so if you haven't register might want to quickly go now. Anyway can call first to check if there is any vacancy so you don't make a wasted trip. You can get the contact and address of their centres at their website: http://www.pcf.org.sg Monthly fees is S$171.20, have to pay full 12 months for the year, even Jun and Nov/Dec holidays also need to pay. By the way I am eligible for the Kindergarten Fee Assistance Scheme (KiFAS), so probably can get S$30 off, so only pay S$141.20. It's best to prepare everything, go down fill up the form (quite a few pages, may need 15-20 mins) and be done for now, and wait for their phone call, still need to pay deposit. There's also some other fees, like buy uniform, the miscellaneous stuff like study material and whatnot, probably around S$1xx+. Following is a copy of the documen

BTO Sales Launch May 2019

Link to apply here. Priority Schemes here. 26 May 2019 I would have met my MOP for my current flat, so they open this week just nice. So I applied for a 3-room unit at Tengah, together with my parents under the "Multi-Generation Priority Scheme (MGPS)". Parents applied for a 2-Room Flexi unit. Quite surprising still can be eligible for a priority scheme, hopefully can get. By the way application fee is just S$10, if can get good, cannot then just lose S$10, machiam like buying 4D lol. Pricing below.

Changed My Blog Theme (Again!)

Image
My previous theme feels kind of lacking, not sure where to start but it doesn't feel right. So today I decided to try another theme, this flowery one looks nicer, more pleasant, even the mobile mode looks cool. Anyway if you are wondering which theme I used, it's the middle one under "Contempo". Looks really nice.

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

Image
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 fo
