昨天,大家的朋友圈都开炸了吧? 相信已经有一批SP、EP工作者已经哭晕在厕所~ 没错,昨天新加坡人力部宣布重大消息,针对外籍员工家属准证的政策将做出新的调整,具体官方内容如下:
作为定期更新的一部分,新加坡人力部重新审视了工作准证持有者为家属申请准证的资格。从2018年起,如果新加坡工作准证持有者想为其配偶和孩子申请家属准证,最低工资必须达到6000新币以上才行。而如果要为父母申请家属准证,则要达到12000新币以上才行。
此项规定是从2018年开始,若是今年申请,依旧是按照旧规则行事。 相关的Q&A如下:
Q1– What are the main changes to the dependant privileges for Employment Pass(EP)/S Pass holders from 1 Jan 2018? (从2018年1月起,EP、SP持有者的权利将会有什么主要变化?) A1 – From 1 Jan 2018: S Pass and EP holders need to meet aminimum fixed monthly salary of $6,000 to bring in their spouse/children (on Dependant’sPass). S Pass and EP holders need to meet aminimum fixed monthly salary of $12,000 to bring in their parents (onLong Term Visit Pass). (从2018年1月起,EP、SP持有者需要薪酬至少达到6000新币,才能为其配偶和孩子申请家属准证DP,若要为父母申请LTVP,薪酬水平12000新币以上才行。) Q2– Why does MOM revise dependant privileges for EP and S Pass holders? (为什么MOM要修正EP、SP持有者的权益?) A2 – The Government updatesthe DP/LTVP qualifying salary fromtime to time, to ensure that the main pass holder will be able to upkeep theirdependants. (政府不时更新DP / LTVP合格的工资,确保主要通行证持有人能够维护其家属。) Q3– Does this apply to all EP and S Pass holders? How will the changes to thedependant privileges affect existing dependants of EP and S Pass holders? (这个申请是否针对所有EP、SP持有者?对于已经存在依附家属的EP、SP持有者会有什么影响?) A3 – The changes will only apply to newDP/LTVP applications made on or after 1 Jan 2018. To reduce disruption to familiesalready here or arriving soon, DP/LTVPs that are issued or approved before 1Jan 2018 will remain valid as long as the main pass holder has a valid EP/SPass. Dependants who renew their passes on orafter 1 Jan 2018 will not be affected provided the main pass holder remainswith the same employer. (这些变化只是针对2018年1月后新的DP和LTVP申请者,为了减少已经在这里或即将到达的家庭的干扰,在2018年1月1日之前发出或批准的DP / LTVP将保持有效,只要主要持有人持有有效的EP / S通行证即可。在2018年1月1日或之后更新通行证的人,只要主持证持有人是同一个雇主,则不会受到影响。) Q4– I am an EP/S Pass holder with dependants. How will my dependants be affectedif I change employer? (我是一名EP、SP持有者,如果我更换雇主,那我的家属是否会受到影响?) A4 – We treat any change in employer asa new application. If you changeemployer from 1 Jan 2018, you will have to meet the revised salary criteria toretain your dependant privileges. (对于任何的雇主变更情况,我们视作为新的申请。如果您从2018年1月1日起更换雇主,则必须符合修订后的薪资标准才能保留您的附属权限。) Q5– Will MOM still accept and approve DP applications before 1 Jan 2018? (MOM在2018年1月之前,是否仍然接受或允许DP申请?) A5 – Yes, MOM will process DPapplications as usual. (会的,MOM会将照常处理DP申请。)
