- thematrixturtle 4y agoThat's basically correct, although the top tiers of the employment pass hierarchy are permitted to bring in dependents and parents. Only on long-term passes, though; becoming permanent residents, much less citizens, is off the agenda unless you're willing to sign up your offspring for at least two years of military service.
- SenHeng 4y agoThat’s only if your offspring wants their PR too. If they’re willing to leave Singapore after their childhood, they don’t have to serve.
- thematrixturtle 4y agoThey have to leave Singapore before a fuzzily defined boundary between 10 and 12yo, meaning it's the parent who has to make the call. Stay beyond that, and they're a deserter who'll be arrested on sight if they ever return.
