Prepare Singapore permanent-residence evidence from the applicable ICA category and checklist. A useful file records the real identity, work, education and family evidence requested, without assigning an invented approval score.
Locate the ICA permanent-residence category
ICA lists permanent-residence application categories and a document checklist. Its page describes certified-copy and official-translation evidence and states that it does not endorse private translation companies. It distinguishes an in-principle approval from completion of the required formalities. Read Singapore ICA: Becoming a Permanent Resident.
Your working sheet
The following is an editorial organisation tool, not an official application checklist. Copy the rows that help and fill them with your own verified records.
| Check | What to record |
|---|---|
| Category | Record the official application category and source |
| Evidence index | Match each checklist item to the original record and requested copy or translation |
| Changes | Log relevant factual changes and the official process for updating the file |
A practical example
Imagine an agency offers a selection formula based on a handful of personal details. The applicant's useful next task remains checking the actual ICA category and requested evidence. A private scoring spreadsheet should not replace an authentic qualification or relationship record.
Before the next step
Read ICA's current checklist before paying for translations or advice. Keep document origin and translation evidence connected. If an IPA is issued, follow its formalities separately rather than assuming the application submission or initial letter alone completed the grant.
