It is not the number of times of writing that succeeds. It is the substance of the appeal.

Will like to share it here.

There's a little footnote from ICA abt the entry visa. So basically they cover their own ass very well.

Footnote: Possession of a visa does not entitle a foreigner to enter Singapore automatically. The grant of a visit pass to foreign visitor is determined by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) at the Singapore checkpoints and each case is considered on its own merits.

I got a friend who is afraid of this problem for his Thai GF. He wrote a statement and scan to his gf to print out stating something like that "she is here for visiting and they are in relationship should there be any laws broken by her, my friend will be fully responsible and pls contact me immediately. something like a guarantor and also his photocopy IC.

When she arrived and ICA asked her a few questions, she say that she is here to visit BF and she show ICA the letter and told them he is outside waiting. ICA keeps the letter and let her enter SG.

Dunno how effective but worth trying or If her English is good and got cash money can press on saying to visit casino and ask to talk with Thai embassy if still reject enter and show them the hotel booking vourchers and ask to claim back from ICA.

But from my understanding, did she has problems with the laws here before? Otherwise if still show cash money and still reject there is something wrong lar.

Sorry Bro ...Cannot understand what you trying to share

I second bro shysaint

Sorry bros, I wrote it not clear, pai seh ang mo bo ho.

I got a friend who is concern of having ICA problem for his Thai GF. As she frequently enter SG. She works as a coyote before knowing him.

He wrote a statement letter and photocopy his IC and email to his gf in bkk. His GF printed out for standby incase ICA question her.

He wrote on the letter something like this "xxx is here for visiting and holidays, declared for how many days of stay and she is her fiance or GF. Should there be any laws broken by her, I will be fully responsible.pls contact me immediately".

Sounds like you are her guarantor and sign off the letter. Sorry for above part u rephase and be professional. if letter got write on holidays pls have cash with her and dress smartly.

When she arrived , ICA asked her a few questions, she say that she is here to visit xxx/holidays and what their relationship and she show ICA the letter and told them he is outside waiting. ICA keeps the letter and let her enter SG.

I am not sure how effective is this but this is a real case scenario done by my friend.

But from my understanding, did she has problems with the laws here before? Otherwise if still show cash money and hotel vourcher and still reject, there is something wrong with her lar.

If she really clean records and never lie to you and ICA lau lan if i were you, i might go with her to singapore embassy in bkk to complain and claim back all expenses.

i try before by giving my company name card to my then girlfriend cos she say immigration will direct those girl to a room if they came frequently to sg before and ask them 1 by 1 why they come sg.so i ask her to tell them that she come visit me,i am her boyfriend.and i ask her to tell ICA people to call me if in doubt.

on one visit,she again kana and she show them my name card and tell them what i told her.she was allow to enter and that officer did not call me.

[ICAlaw101]

Despite a visa being granted, ICA always retain a discretion to refuse entry at the immigration. It is important for the visitornto remain calm, know the purpose of visit to Singapore, the address of residence in Singapore and contact details of local sponsor.

bro,i think your 2 months is extended stay which was chop on the passport while u wait for her application for long term visit pass.i never heard of a short term pass of 2 months cos nowadays the pass they give out is with thumb print and photo just like our IC type so i guess is costly for immigration to give out just for 2 months and the amount is around $80 bear by u.

RECEIVING ATTENTION is they are still processing meaning to say that they have your application and still looking at it.not to worry,is their reply

u can apply PR for her but nowadays is VERY DIFFICULT to approve.they normally issue long term pass first.if u lucky,they give 1 year,if no lucky is 3 months.i would suggest dont apply PR first.step by step.got her long term pass then go apply PR.

few years ago.salary of 2.6k got higher chance but nowadays they are very strict and govertment also want to limit foreigner in singapore after the poor result of ruling party so i guess now is more difficult.

they will take into consideration but you must have a stable job or income within this 3 years and if your wife is highly educated.

any bro can correct me if i am wrong

If I can write n submit Vietnamese address .. I don't see why cannot submit in Chinese?

U think ICA will check the address? As long as it's the true address, no need to be scared .
