kung papunta ka ng oz at may budget ka naman at di mo pa need ang cpf money mo pwede naman, kahit naman nasa OZ ka na, pwede ka mag-renounce ng SG PR sa mga Singapore Embassy kahit di ka na pumunta ng SG.

Tanong ko lang sa mga ng renounce ng PR na pumunta ng OZ, which oz bank po ginamit nyo para sa transfer ng cpf money nyo? Sa isang oz bank account lang ba dapat o pwede transfer sa 2 or more banks? kapag kasi pinalad maka-oz next year almost 180-200k din ang need namin ipa transfer, hehe

@dreamoz mas ok siguro na magiwan ka ng active na SG bank account para dun muna ideposit cpf money. pwede naman online transfer from SG bank to Au bank. sa ganun pwede mo makontrol pagreremit ng pera sa Au kapag favorable ang exchange rate.

@Miyawski hello. I just want to ask pano ung procedure ng pag renounce ng pr. Need b resign muna? Inform muna ang employer? And sa CPF ilang days or months before makuha? Tnx po

Just make sure na by the time mag-last day kayo eh PR pa rin kayo, coz that's what allows you to work in SG. You can renounce your PR the day after if you want.

Sa case namin, since gusto pa naming magbakasyon muna ng pinas for about 2 weeks, what we did was:

- Resign from our work
- Bakasyon pinas
- Balik SG, stayed there for 4 nights. During which time, ni-renounce namin ang SPR namin.

IIRC we got the funds from CPF after about 2 weeks.

True. Yun nga lang, sa Canberra ka pa pupunta, and the processing as far as I know takes a bit longer.

Also note na pagdating mo sa Australia, marami-rami ring gastusin ang naghihintay sa yo, especially if you're a family with kids and gusto nyong mag-rent ng sariling bahay.

So factor nyo na rin yun sa budget nyo.

Tanong ko lang sa mga ng renounce ng PR na pumunta ng OZ, which oz bank po ginamit nyo para sa transfer ng cpf money nyo? Sa isang oz bank account lang ba dapat o pwede transfer sa 2 or more banks? kapag kasi pinalad maka-oz next year almost 180-200k din ang need namin ipa transfer, hehe

I used NAB. It's up to you kung gusto mong i-split ang pera mo into multiple banks. Just note that may daily max amount or limit ang transfer.

hello po tanong lang din rltd sa pagrenounce ng PR. My son is turning 16 yrs old sa Oct. (thu wla pa nmn letter na rcv for NS). May impact po ba to samin if mgrerenounce kami ng PR by mid of next year?

grant512 · April 2016

Hi po ask ko lang po if ang status ng medical namin is "no action required" ibig po sabihn okay na po medical?

prcand · April 2016

@dreamoz bakit nila binago ung pinoysg na site? kaya pala walang masyadong activity dun, kahit account issues walang pumapansin :P

Impact sa inyo or sa anak nyo? Assuming na na-receive nya na ang enlistment by then, sa inyo, I don't think there's any impact. But sa anak nyo, yes.

I remember reading this article entitled Parliament: 'No NS-liable PR who renounced status allowed to work or study here'noon. Not sure kung may nagbago na ba after.

Miyawski · April 2016

Yes.

The long (feeling mo uber long

)) wait begins. Good luck.

grant512 · April 2016

Yes.

The long (feeling mo uber long ) wait begins. Good luck.

hirap nga po hehehe

thegreatiam15 · April 2016

WOOOOO that familiar feeling pag magbabakasyon kana sa PINAS yung utak mo nawala na sa SG andun na katawan nalang naiwan dito.

that familiar feeling na may nilolook forward ka sabik na sabik ka lumanding sa kakaibang lugar

lol

prcand · April 2016

@thegreatiam15 that feeling na di mo na iniisip ung pabagong bagong migration policies na hindi pabor sayo sa bansa kung saan tayo, at ung feeling na kahit ano resulta ng PR application mo dito wala ka ng paki-alam kahit rejected kasi aalis ka narin LOL

thegreatiam15 · April 2016

@prcand

nagapply ako twice dito kaso malas talaga hindi talaga para saken ang lugar na ito kahit kaunting swerte wala siguro kung meron man sa karir ko lang dito haha

oo nga yung uncertainty every 2 years kung marerenew ang iyong work pass o uuwe kanang luhaan.

yung uncertainty na intact pa company mo bigla bigla magsisipaan walang sabi sabi may 2 months notice kana lang

yung may kasama ka na pinoy sa bahay na hindi marunung makisama

yung every weekend nagtatravel ka papuntang raffles pero hindi mo maiwasan ang orchard at nadadamay ka sa gulo nang mga kapwang Pinoy dun

yung every weekend nagcacamping ka sa bahay kasi tapos na weekend mo at "monday" nanaman trabaho nanaman buntong hininga ka kasi holiday nung wednesday e MC kapa nung tuesday so may 6 days kang pahinga pero yung Monday parang magic lang na dumating.

pinoycoder · April 2016

mga bossing, pwede na bang i advance asikasuhin mga to habang naghihintay mag pa assess sa ACS?

1. NBI
2. SG PCC
3. Medical.

my 2 months kasi akong waiting time bago magpa assess ulit, eh medyo binibilisan ko na kasi baka magretrench nanaman dito sa SG end of Q2.

any advice? halos complete ko na docs, yan nalang mga kulang.

In preparation lang sa EOI and CO required documents, para makafocus na ulit sa ibang bagay.

1. NBI - Yes.

2. SG PCC - The earliest you can do this is after you've lodged your Visa Application. SPF kasi will require a request letter from DIBP, which happens once you have a CO na. But I know of some friends who just printed the Visa Application Page and presented it to SPF. Tinanggap naman nila.

3. Medical - If I remember correctly, merong form na magiging available lang after mo mag-lodge ng Visa application.

@Miyawski wala po bang penalty na iimposed sa CPF namin? Kc may nakapagsabi samin na may bond daw na 70k since d2 ndaw lumaki at nag.aral ang bata. Totoo po ba yun?

Unfortunately, hindi ako familiar sa implications ng NS eligibility. Puro babae kasi kids ko

Naalala ko, may kakilala akong indian na ni-renounce ang SPR ng anak nya at pinauwi na sa India bago mag-16. I guess you should seriously consider the same.

dreamoz · April 2016

ok

dreamoz · April 2016

@xteen091 buti pa son mo PR, kids namin (one is boy) 5x na rejected, hehe. Sa kabilang banda ay ok na rin, since nagbabalak na rin kami mg migrate so di sya liable mag NS. Anyway, ito po sinasabi ng MINDEF....

"If you are between 13 and 16.5 years old (You need to apply for an exit permit if you intend to travel or remain overseas for 3 months or longer. If you are remaining overseas for 2 years or longer, your parents/guardians will also need to furnish a bond, in the form of a Banker's Guarantee of S$75,000 or 50% of the combined annual gross income of both parents for the preceding year, whichever is higher.

If you are above 16.5 and have not enlisted for NS:
You need to apply for an exit permit if you intend to travel or remain overseas for 3 months or longer. Your parents/guardians will need to furnish a bond, in the form of a Banker's Guarantee of S$75,000 or 50% of the combined annual gross income of both parents for the preceding year, whichever is higher."

Kung sa pag renounce nyo naman po, ang tanging sabi po nila ay may "adverse consequences" kung di sya mag-serve. No one knows the future, what if one day he really need to come to sg for any reason, sino ang sisihin nya kung na-ban sya?

dreamoz · April 2016

ok

pinoycoder · April 2016

@Miyawski thanks miyawski sa info, yes NBI nalang muna, uwi muna pinas.

xteen091 · April 2016

@Miyawski @dreamoz salamat po sa input nyo.
Actually pinag-iisipan pa nga tlg nmn ng maigi kc sobrang critical to for us. Kawawa dn if ever babalik yun anak ko didto mag-isa just for the NS :-(

zapped · April 2016

@xteen091, no such thing as bond na 70k kasi lumaki sa SG anak nyo na SPR. Pag rennounce nyo ng PR, balik lahat ng pera nyo intact with whatever interest na nakalagay sa CPF nyo. Singapore Citizen po ay ibang usapan. Yan ang may penalty charges na dependent na lang sa computation nila on a case-to-case basis.

xteen091 · April 2016

@zapped would that mean na dapat namin irenounce yung PR before sya mag 16.5 yrs old?or pwd pa yun so long as hindi pa sya nga 18 yrs old?

icel527 · April 2016

@Miyawski tnx sa info. How long ang procedure time before ma renounce ng PR? Ilang days pwede mgstay sa SG after ma renounce?

prcand · April 2016

@icel527 kahit hindi ako PR, i think pag wala kang alternative visa (like work pass), tourist agad by default which is 30 days

zapped · April 2016

@xteen091, don't wait till the last minute would be my best move. Before kayo mapadalhan ng letter from MINDEF. Regards and all the best!

icel527 · April 2016

@prcand okay. Tnx sa reply

xteen091 · April 2016

@zapped salamat sa concern, actually kelangan pa ibenta property namn bago kami makapagrenouce. Antay pa kami til Q4 of this year para pwd na nmn ibenta flat. Bumaba p nmn value ng properties ngayon :-(

Hopefully we can settle everything before kami makarcv ng letter
