The e-PR System
PR applicants earlier have to make a trip to the ICA building to secure an appointment with ICA to submit their PR application documents. After the introduction of e-PR system, applicants are no longer need to do that. Instead, they can enter required information into an electronic application form on the ICA website. Supporting documents can also be scanned and submitted electronically.
Introduction of Processing Fee for PR Applications
ICA has introduced a processing fee of $100 per applicant at the point of submission of PR application. Successful applicants will also pay a $20 fee for the Entry Permit. The total fees payable for each successful PR applicant is therefore $120. All applications submitted through the e-PR system must be accompanied by a valid Singpass. Individuals lacking a valid Singpass are advised to seek assistance from their local sponsors who are Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents (PRs) to facilitate the submission of their applications on their behalf.
The fees helps manage the rising operating costs of processing PR applications.
Cease of Release of e-Appointment Slots
ICA only accept PR applications through the e-PR system and will not release any e-appointment slots.
