please kindly advice on the above questions as well as any additional information will be greatly appreciated. as we are short of time due to her work commitment(under contract), the planning might need to be a little precise.

thank you!


1) one of the document requested is valid passport with valid immigration pass. what is a immigration pass? is it the "white card"?

Ans: Bring your wife's travel document (passport) & her long term pass.

2) medical report. from the letter, it seen that only 2tests need to be done? X-ray for TB and HIV test. as my wife need to take time off from her work, how long does the medical examination result will be out? any clinic to recommend which have both tests espeically HIV rapid test so we can finish everything in a single day? any other test involve?

Ans: There shld be an address list attached to the medical report. There are several clinics that offer these 2 pre-requisite tests. Report will be out in 5 working days. You can request the report to be sent to you.

3) Re-entry permit. this document is to be apply and get on the same day?

Ans: You can get the re-entry permit on the same day. Should be $100 for the processing fees, valid for 5 years.

4) applying of identity card. how long does it take? can get it on the same day?

Ans: ICA will issue a official document slip. She has to collect in ICA after 7 working days for her blue ID is ready.

5) after the PR formalities appointment any follow up to do? waiting for document? if there is how long does it take?

Ans: See Qn #4.

Bring travel document, the medical report, herself, her recent passport size photographs and $$$.
