Permanent Resident Application Support
If you want a Singapore PR application consultant to handle every step on your behalf, our service covers the full journey: eligibility assessment, profile building, document gathering and vetting, submission, and post-approval support. Our work is structured around the factors ICA publicly says it considers, so your application puts forward your strongest profile.
Every engagement starts with a complimentary consultation. We assess your eligibility, walk you through what to expect when you apply for Singapore PR, and identify any aspects of your profile that may need strengthening before submission. You leave with a clear understanding of where you stand, with no obligation to proceed.
Looking for a Singapore PR Application Consultant or Agency?
Many applicants compare a Singapore permanent resident agency, PR application agency Singapore provider, PR application agent, and Singapore PR consultant before deciding who should support their case. E&H Immigration Consultancy has supported applicants across virtually every eligible category — EP holders building careers in finance, technology, and professional services; S Pass holders strengthening their profiles to make the leap to PR; investors navigating the Global Investor Programme; and parents applying through family sponsorship.
What unites these very different applicants is the value of an experienced PR application agency that understands the factors ICA publicly says it considers. An EP holder applying after three years in a stable role needs a different strategy from an S Pass holder, a self-employed business owner, or a sponsoring parent — and we tailor our approach accordingly.
Rather than simply preparing forms, we work closely with applicants to build a coherent case supported by the right documentation, written submissions, and supporting evidence. We have guided Employment Pass holders, S Pass holders, investors, and families through every common pathway to Singapore Permanent Residence.
Before You Submit Your PR Application to ICA
Most people searching for help with a Singapore PR application are focused on getting the ICA submission right. That final step matters, but in our experience the strongest cases are built well before anyone clicks submit.
When you apply for Singapore PR, ICA is not only reviewing a form. They are assessing your profile, timing, supporting evidence, contribution, and long-term commitment to Singapore permanent residency.
That's where our immigration consultancy comes in. Before you submit, we help you assess whether your timing is right, identify gaps in your profile, structure your supporting documents, and frame your case around the factors ICA is known to weigh — so your application feels complete, credible, and considered, not just complete on paper.

Who Can Apply?
The most common route is the Professionals, Technical Personnel, and Skilled Workers (PTS) scheme, open to Employment Pass and S Pass holders. Spouses and unmarried children under 21 of a citizen or PR may apply under the family scheme, and aged parents of citizens under a separate sponsorship scheme. Investors may apply under the Global Investor Programme (GIP), and there is also the Foreign Artistic Talent scheme. ICA assesses every application holistically against the objectives of Singapore's immigration policy at the time of submission.
Check which category fits your profile — each has different requirements and considerations.
Previously rejected? Applicants are typically advised to wait at least six months before reapplying — our appeal handling service helps re-strategise and strengthen your application for re-submission.

Why Getting Your Singapore PR Application Right the First Time Matters
Singapore Permanent Residence is granted by the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) to foreigners who meet certain eligibility criteria, typically through employment, family ties, or investment. On paper the process looks straightforward; in practice it is far less transparent than many applicants assume.

Recommended on SingaReviewsCommon PR Questions, Answered
What is Singapore Permanent Residency (PR) and what are its benefits?
- A Singapore Permanent Resident (PR) is a non-citizen granted the right to live, work, and study in Singapore indefinitely.
- Benefits include: CPF contributions, healthcare and school subsidies, eligibility to buy certain resale HDB flats, ability to sponsor eligible family members, greater job flexibility, and a pathway to citizenship.
How long should I wait before applying for Singapore PR?
- Most applicants wait 6–12 months after starting work before applying, but there is no mandatory minimum.
- A stronger track record — stable employment, rising income, CPF history, and community ties — significantly improves your chances. Applying too early with a thin profile usually leads to rejection.
Is it more difficult to get Singapore PR nowadays?
- Yes. ICA evaluates applicants on skills, economic contribution, integration, and long-term suitability. The bar has risen over the years.
- Singapore grants roughly 33,000–35,000 new PRs annually with no fixed quota — meaning approval is merit-based and a well-prepared application matters more than ever.
Does studying in Singapore improve my chances of getting PR?
- Yes. Local study signals familiarity with Singapore's culture and education system, and demonstrates integration potential — both factors ICA considers positively.
- It is most effective when combined with subsequent stable local employment and CPF contributions.
Should I upgrade from S Pass to Employment Pass (EP) before applying for PR?
- Not mandatory, but an EP signals a higher skill level and salary, which can strengthen your profile. If your employer is supportive and the timing is right, upgrading first may be worthwhile.
- Weigh whether the additional time needed for the upgrade is worth the profile improvement — this depends on your current profile strength.
What are the PR application fees?
- SGD 100 non-refundable processing fee, payable at submission.
- Upon approval: an additional SGD 20 per person (main applicant and each dependant) for the In-Principle Approval (IPA).
