Document categories
The February 2023 notes distinguish work-based PR employees (recent employer letter, 12-month CPF history or one-year tax assessment), self-employed applicants (tax/business evidence), spouse-sponsored PRs (marriage/spouse IC) and dependant children (travel/parent details, with additional work/education evidence at 21).
Originals, translation and NS
The notes require original/copy preparation, accepted translations and possible additional evidence. They also explain first-generation exemptions, male sponsored-child NS duties and adverse consequences of non-fulfilment. Use the current REP webpage for the later 1 December 2025 loss-of-status rules; do not substitute this older explanatory PDF for those updated rules.
