lynntan15:Tks LynnI tried before bring my ex-maid back to Singapore. Min 2 years working with you and a copy of her work permit last time.raven:Thanks JJ.
Just found out that this ex-maid was under my other family name at that time. Is this still possible then?
One criteria I think would be the Employer must be the same.
When you mentioned \"other family name\", is it under a different employer? Or you changed your family name?
If it is under a different employer, maybe you would like to employ her back under the same employer name and do a transfer in Singapore when she is here. If it is changing of family name, guess you need to explain to phillippines embassy.
If remember correctly :-
1) Bring the necessary documents to the embassy to authenticate the new contract. You might want to make a trip down to the phillippines embassy to check what are the documents needed. (Air tickets to Singapore/New contract/think work permit (new and old also... )
2) Once the contract authenticate, you need to send the contract and all supporting documents to your ex-maid in phillippines. Taking the contract, she needs to apply for OEC in phillippines. With the OEC and air ticket, then she can board the plane to Singapore to work for you.
It is definately a lot cheaper to arrange on your own. I spent around SGD500-600 including air ticket/insurance/work permit etc as compared to SGD1k-2k+++ through agency.
She was under a different employer name.
With regards to transfer, can I immediately transfer once she touched down here? What are the additional costs involved?
Tks again
