To answer your general Q, I would say checks and raids is still frequently conducted. Just beware on the "even months", quite raid-prone. I not so worried on the checks, it's the everchanging of ICA internal rules & regulations on the admission of foreign visitors into SGP.

Sorry but i've to ask this question as i've read the info in ICA but still quite confused.

Recently my GF got a "business visa" from a 'jin ji ren' in SIngapore. She says it's a duration of 3 months and no need to 'guo jin' one, straight stay for 3 months. I checked and found business pass usually is 1 year one, how come got 3 months one.

So i'm also confused also what type of visa/pass she getting. Anyway, i also want to to ask this i'm quite a nobb in thiese information. I saw from ICA, there's this VISA and PASS. What's the diff?? I saw VISA, there's business and social. Then PASS, there's business and other long list of different social pass.

Supossing she's getting a business visa(my guess and indeed there's a 3 month one), I'll be marrying here in 2 month's time and she intend to search for a job after we get married. She'll not be engaging in any illegal activities though. She's just stupid to approach that 'jin ji ren' for such stuff as she just came back from SG and found difficulty in coming again. Question is will her 'business visa' affects our marriage, application for long term pass, working etc?

Today the jin ji ren called her asked her to remit 20k rmb to him then he mail the visa over. I tell her knn dun be rash, wait money send leow, funny visa came out with stay like 1 month and renewable or wait visa is 3 months and custom still chop 14days then how? coz i think if got chop 14days then after 14 days must cross border then need not confirm is 3 months leow.

Just go to ROM and book a date. After that, apply a visa to you. Sure approve if the other visa can be approved also.
Do not need to depend on 'jin ji ren'

Business visa, max is 1 year, but usually given for shorter duration, depends on what was said in the application.

Visa usually means longer term, Pass usually shorter term. Visa typically allows holder to "stay" whereas "Pass" typically allows "visit" only.

Check Visa conditions carefully. Usually, conditions will tell you what holder can or cannot do when in Singapore. If I am not mistaken, marriage is a no-no. Even if married, no guarantee that you will be able to apply for longer term visa for her. Usually at the end of her 3 month stay (maybe can extend for 2 weeks), she has to go back and wait for the outcome of your application.

Don't be too rash with the agent. They can fuck things up for you if you play rough with them. Suggest you find out what the money is for and what is being offered in exchange first. Get all your facts together before deciding what to do.

Hope the above helps.

Cheers

Oh man.. this is bad. My intention of getting her here is for marriage actually but before i raise it up to her, she already getting that 'visa' or 'pass' to come here to be with me for 3 months. Now she says already approve by MOM. Jialat leow. Actually plan End Dec ROM. If really cannot, need to push back to Feb leow. Need to check the condition properly leow.

Sigh... women, sometimes they just did things w/o considering the after effects but it's for a good reason, so cannot blame them also.

If she just came back, it would be quite difficult for her to return. when did she leave SG?

In any case, a 2 yrs Biz Visa costs 10k yuan in SHA to apply. On top of that, the agent will need to submit her passport to MFA, SHA. There is no such thing as "mail visa over" to her. Ask her to look around for agents. Payment is made only to the agent once the VISA is approved.

Just be careful of scams in SHA. If she really wants to collect the VISA, make sure she "COD" the transaction. Dont get cheated.

why must be 5mths upon leaving sg? from what i know, 1 gal was trying since last august to come to sg,using different passports n names but to no avail.

could it be that ICA has facial recognition in place to ban these gals from coming over?

btw, she was never caught for any illegal activities
