you are absolutely correct..

This morning go apply further extension (already 2mths) for my bx again but was rejected as they claim that my doctor memo only state my bx expected delivery date. So I bring her see doctor and get a memo... the doctor only state that "my bx is xxxxx, travelling will make it worse... xxxx". This time go interview room. But again it was rejected. The Encik claimed that those Degree Holder officer reject it because the doctor did not certify and spell out the wording "unfit for travel"

I tell him straight.. I also degree holder, doctor also highly educated... ICA officer is stupid brainless degree holder. I stomp out.

LL... bx need to go back liao... will come back again for the gynea appointment in 2 weeks time... will be subjected to ICA screening again

Just a quick check with bros here, how frequent does your bx call back vietnam to chat with her family member. I bought her a calling card with callback services & she used up almost S$70 per week so 1 month choked up additional S$280 on top of her singtel subscription, is it too much
I have been advicing her to use free internet call online but complaint poor
reception & distortion still prefer using callback services to call vietnam via her mobile phone. I purchased telcom 1515 services, any bros have cheaper callback service provider

Bros KT,

DO NOT CHALLENGE those ICA officer, we are always at the losing end. My experiences tell me letter from KKH are more 'powerful' comparing to outside private gynea as it is one of ICA trusted partner, you may want to try them when your bx back to s'pore.

[QUOTE=Blast88;7412933]Bros KT,

I won't challenge brainless and inefficient degree holders...
I was told I need to wait a total of 3 months for my bx LTVP appeal.. another 1.5 months.

at least some auntie ICA staff at the counter stiil go brain to think and got heart to feel. The auntie looks sorry and dejected for me after the Degree Officer inside rejected the extension. She keep saying sorry sorry sorry...

Yes those "degree holders" all follow the rules blindly, follow till word for word. I have similar experiences with another ministry recently. My wife got some problems with her previous employer, we went MOM for help, lodged a case n they withhold my wife's passport without reason. Call a few times no one answer, was also told these type of cases will drag for 6 mths! a month passed but like no movement so fed up i went to see MP, but i see that MP letter not strong enough so i myself write letter go shoot to the minister. Then they start to look into the case n managed to see some movement n got some explaination. Now they agreed to release her passport back to her.

KT, u shld stay there longer n argue with them. Demand that stupid officer to see u face to face n explain why reject. Say like the bros mentioned b4: "anything happened to my wife n child, u going to give me back a wife n child ha?"

Skybe, viber are quite clear... I am using it to talk to my business associates in Hanoi and HCMC. Human being is like this, when u dun pay for it, u won't feel the pain, u will continue to misuse the privileged.

I am also using pfingo and Hoiio for oversea calls. Decent rates and quality is good.

Previously .. the best way to call back vietnam is to use M1 ... Pre-paid comes with free IDD call ... calls to Vietnam will be deducted as local call time ...

AS for Post-paid, u need to pay $5 every month to subscribe to the IDD service ... All calls made to Vietnam are deducted and charged as local calls ... I used to choke up to $1.6k calling Vietnam but because of the M1 idd, I paid only $160 in the final bill ...

Currently, SINGTEL have started IDD to Vietnam .. previously I subscibed the mthly $5 IDD servies to call Thailand.

Not sure the rate for calling Vietnam thru' SINGTEL with the subscribed IDD service, u can go enquire ...

Else go buy CHat CHat Card loh ... 128 mins for $7.80 ...

Maybe you can show us the link in ICA which list down hospital that are trusted partner of ICA ....

This is my link and I do not have any list ..

important criteria:

•Form Form V75* duly certified by a registered doctor in Singapore and signed by the applicant.
•Alternatively, a letter from a registered doctor in Singapore stating the brief details of the illness and the period of stay required for the treatment

http://www.ica.gov.sg/page.aspx?pageid=237&secid=338

Did you MIX-UP with Application/Extending of Visit Pass in the portal ... Yes ... There is some categories of applying ... Either Submission thru Individual or Submission through Strategic Partner.

https://www.psi.gov.sg/NASApp/tmf/TM...ue&Reload=true

Is this the Strategic Partner (=trusted partner of ICA) you are talking about ?

Don't tell me the hospital mentioned in this link are ICA trusted partner??? This is only for registration of Birth ...

You are so naive, do you think there will be a different outcome when you make a fuss thereDo you think the officer will bother to come out & see youThere are hundred of similar cases happening at ICA everyday & they do not have to answerable to you, why reject, every application are all subject with their own merit.
