Actually no hope if you approach the MP if you just got married and no kids and education level low .... worse if no contribution to CPF.

Ya all the best bro.....I suggest you bring some proof like photos etc....me last time apply for PR also kena interview they ask me how long know my wife, how we got to know each other etc & other details......lucky I can produce photos of we go travel together & the letters we wrote to each other (back then no email). They told me they were trying to establish if it was a scam marriage.

welll..... not good news at all. I was hoping it was, and after 6 hours after the interview, i still think it was a dream that didn't happen. the worse dream i can ever imagine.

I won't say much ( those who wants to know can pm me ) in the open, but all i can say is wife has taken statement, and i am next (tomorrow) and the chances of getting a long-term or PR is close to ZERO % now. There's no way wife will be able to get PR in my opinion, unless my father is LKY.

sob sob

cheers!

Moving your first step to China is the most difficult. I faced similar but more complicated situation with my PRC wife 3 years ago. After struggle for initial period, i am now more settle down. Brought my 70 yr old mum over this year, sold my HDB flat and now expecting a child mid next year.

The key issue is how much you treasure your relationship and how much determination you have. Down here, i achieve more than what i can get in Sillypore, more $$$ more, career advancement and most important.... HAPPINESS...

Does any brothers here familiar wth the myammar rules? I wanted to bring my future wife here to marry,however, i only just realise that myammar people need to apply for a visa to gain entry. Only diplomatic/official/service passport gain exemption of visa, now my question is can my future wife apply for these passport or are they only for high ranking officials and people working for the myammar government? She is currently holding only a social visit passport which is only valid for a year. Brothers who have the answers, pls help me, thanks in advance

if I wants to marry a PRC wife, what are the steps I need to do?
I go register for marriage in Singapore?
Do I have to go China Embassy to get approval 1st?

In Singapore you are free to marry anyone you like, no need permission......by anyone of course I mean the opposite sex & provided both must be single, divorced or widowed la. It is the foreign wife being granted permission to stay on that is the big headache
