i am soooo happy i got this just when i did. my 30-day "social visit" or tourist pass in singapore would have been up on thursday. without the dependant pass, i would have had to exit and re-enter singapore (by way of malaysia would be easiest) just to get another 30-day stay until the dependant pass was approved. yuuuurg hassle.
on this pass, i am considered marlon's dependent, which is pretty much how it is until i get a job. my future employer will have to apply for a letter of consent from the ministry of manpower (every time i say this out loud, i almost say "ministry of magic" -- that's seven volumes of harry potter talking) for me to be able to work.
i am slightly bothered that it's spelled "dependant" instead of "dependent." even blogger spellcheck is flagging it as an error. but whatever. i'm free to stay. yay!
Congrats! Mas mapapadali na ang pagkuha mo ng work sa Singapore! :)
