ICA LTVP & PR Appeal Success

in Singapore

A rejection letter isn’t a verdict—it’s feedback. If you simply resubmit the same file, you’ll likely get the same outcome. The path forward is a targeted appeal with new evidence that directly addresses ICA’s assessment.

Apply at least 10 days before your current Visit Pass expires.

A valid Visit Pass is required at all times during your stay.

Passport must be valid and issued in your own name.

Who should consider an appeal?

You received a PR rejection recently and can add new information (e.g., salary progression, new role, tax records, certifications, community contributions, family updates).

You can file within the allowed window (see “Key rules” below).

If nothing material has changed, reapplying later when your profile improves may be wiser than appealing now.

Key rules (know these before you act)

  • Appeal window: generally within 6 months of the rejection date.

  • New information required: appeals should present fresh evidence not included previously.

Our 3-Phase Appeal System

Case files and analysis
1

Forensic Case Analysis

Planning and evidence map
2

Profile Enhancement Plan

We help strengthen your proof stack — updated employment & income records, IRAS filings, qualifications, community/volunteering, family integration, letters of support.

Appeal preparation
3

Strategic Appeal Submission

We draft a concise, data-backed appeal letter, assemble new evidence, and prepare you for clarifications — so your case answers ICA’s criteria directly.

What Counts as “New Evidence”?

  • Latest employment letter, promotion, or salary increment
  • Tax assessments (IRAS), CPF/Medisave records where relevant
  • Professional certifications or academic upgrades
  • Community contributions — volunteering, memberships
  • Family changes — marriage, child, dependants in Singapore
  • Corrected / additional documents that were missing or unclear

Why “new”? ICA expects appeals to add substance — not repeat the same file.

Appeal vs Reapply — Which Is Right for Me?

Appeal Now

Do this if you can show meaningful changes and you’re within the 6-month window.

Reapply Later

If nothing material has changed, wait and submit a stronger fresh application when your profile improves.
