How to immigrate to Singapore? KaoNet answers for you.

1. Can Singapore immigrants bring their parents?

When applying for permanent residence in Singapore, only the legal spouse and unmarried children under 2 1 year old can apply as family members, so many applicants are concerned about whether their parents can immigrate together. On this issue, according to the relevant policies promulgated by the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority of Singapore (ICA), applicants can apply for permanent residence status in Singapore (PR) for their parents after obtaining Singapore citizenship, and then immigrate to Singapore. If you just want to live in Singapore with your parents, you can also apply for a long-term visitor visa (LTVP) for your parents. With LTVP, the applicant's parents can stay in Singapore for a long time within the validity period, and the specific period is affected by LTVP and the applicant's visa period.

Work visa holders can apply for LTVP for their parents, with a fixed monthly salary of over S $6,000 or guaranteed by their employers.

EntrePass holders can also apply for LTVP for their parents after the annual business expenditure is higher than S $200,000 and enough jobs are provided.

1. How to become a Singapore citizen?

According to the relevant provisions of ICA, the prerequisite for becoming a Singapore citizen is to obtain PR. After two years of PR, you can apply for ICA and become a Singapore citizen. The main way to get PR is to invest in immigration or apply for a work visa in Singapore. Details are as follows:

1, Global Business Investor Program (GIP)

At present, the most direct way to immigrate to Singapore is through the GIP proposed by the Singapore Economic Development Board. As a senior business owner/next-generation business owner/founder of a fast-growing business/head of the family financial office, he will invest no less than S $2.5 million in the designated business areas and obtain permanent residence status after passing the ICA audit.

2.Entrepress (Enterprise Press)

GIP requires the applicant's company to have an annual turnover of more than S $200 million, while Entrepress (EP) only requires new businesses to operate in designated areas in Singapore. This is a good choice for applicants who are keen to run enterprises supported by venture capital or innovative technologies in Singapore.

3. Employer-sponsored migration (EP/SP)

Employers can apply for employment pass (EP) and SPass(SP) for employees. The target group of EP is professionals engaged in management, administration or other professional work with a fixed monthly salary of more than S $4,500. SP is suitable for middle-level technicians with professional titles recognized by Singapore and a fixed monthly salary of more than S $2,500.

4. Personalized Employment Permit (PEP)

EP holders who work outside Singapore with a monthly salary of not less than S $65,438+08,000, or those who work in Singapore with a monthly salary of not less than S $65,438+02,000, can apply for personalized Employment Pass (PEP Pass). Compared with EP or SP, PEP holders can be more free, not limited by fields, and only need to change jobs or notify ICA.

To sum up, whether you can bring your parents to Singapore is closely related to the type of identity held by the applicant. Of course, ordinary PR status or citizenship can definitely bring parents to settle down in Singapore.
