NEW LONG-TERM VISIT PASS SCHEME (LTVP+)
01-Mar-2012 filed under Press Releases

From 1 April 2012, the Government will introduce a new scheme to help Singaporean families with foreign spouses. This new scheme, known as the Long-Term Visit Pass-Plus (or LTVP+), will provide foreign spouses of Singapore citizens who qualify, with greater certainty of stay here by granting the holder a longer period of residency. LTVP+ holders will also be eligible for healthcare and employment benefits.



2. Couples who have at least one Singaporean child from their marriage will be eligible to apply for the LTVP+. For those without a Singapore Citizen child, ICA will look at other factors such as the duration of marriage, and will in general consider more favourably those who have been married for at least three years.



3. LTVP+ holders will be eligible for a longer period of residency in Singapore. The LTVP+ will be for a duration of three years in the first instance and will be for up to five years for each subsequent renewal. LTVP+ holders will enjoy healthcare subsidies for inpatient services at restructured hospitals, which will currently be set at a level close to that for Permanent Residents. In addition, we will make it easier for LTVP+ holders to seek work here. Their prospective employer will apply to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) for a Letter of Consent (LOC), instead of an Employment/S Pass or Work Permit, for them. LTVP+ holders who are issued with LOCs will not be counted against the foreign worker quota of their employers. Their employers are also not required to pay foreign workers’ levy for them.



4. The new LTVP+ scheme seeks to provide more assistance to Singapore families with foreign spouses. The number of marriages between Singapore citizens and foreigners has been on an increasing trend. In 2010, among the 20,273 marriages involving at least one Singapore citizen, 30 per cent were between a Singapore citizen and a foreigner (excluding Permanent Residents). This is an increase from 23 per cent in 2000.



5. Foreign spouses can continue to apply for Singapore Citizenship or Permanent Residence (PR) status. They will be granted SC or PR if they meet the respective criteria. Those who are not yet eligible for SC or PR can apply for LTVP. With effect from 1 April 2012, they can also apply for an LTVP+ status which comes with more benefits.



6. For more information on the LTVP+ scheme, please visit the ICA website at www.ica.gov.sg. You can also email ICA at: ICA_Visit_Pass@ica.gov.sg.

For employment history, do I need to list down all? Or for one reason or another is it ok not to list down employment which did not have a good outcome (nag AWOL, etc).

And testimonials from previous employer --- does it mean the last employer mo or all employers from the past?

Thanks in advance

pagpunta mo sa ICA dala mo dapat ang original at photocopy. Kung tagalog ang diploma mo need mo pa translate sa emabassy sa english pero gawin mo na agad ito para hindi ka na pabalik palik.

Ang advice ko sa iyo kabayan ayusin mo ng maigi ang papers mo. Kc ang ginawa ko sa papers namin nun may isang folder ang original at may isang folder ang photocopy. Nangiti ang officer kc organised lahatng original against photocopy piniflip ko lng sa harapan nia. Inayos ko yun according din sa pagkasunod sunod ng requirements nila at sa form.Mabusisi sila sa taon ng experience mo sa work pero kung lahat naman ng nilagay mo eh true & correct huwag kng kabahan.

Goodluck kabayan!!!

Tanong lang po:

Gano na po kahirap ang approval ng PR dito? Marami na rin kasi ako naririnig na balita na di na na raw na renew ung PRship nila kahit matagal na sila dito.

Balak ko kasi sana mag-apply, bale ung asawa ko 2 yrs na dito (Epass) and ako mag 1 yr na nxt month (Spass). Ano ba ang kailangan para mejo favorable ang approval ng PRship?

Thank you po. Haay sana ma-apruban din. Dasal dasal lang.

Sa renewal OK pa tayo, ang mahigpit ay sa bagong application kasama ang application ng spouse at children (kahit 2 PR parents at dito pinanganak).

Can you put that you were employed but you do not have testimonial? Say the company has closed or it was 10 years ago people in charge are not there anymore?
