You will be eligible to apply for full Singapore citizenship after at least two years of permanent residence status and enjoy the same rights as locally-born citizens. Once you become a citizen, you can enjoy visa-free access to 189 countries around the world. The Singapore passport is one of the most powerful in the world.  Visa Flexibility One of the best things you can do as a Singapore PR is to live and work in Singapore without applying for another visa. Work pass holders almost always encounter some restrictions in terms of job opportunities. As a result, the number of job opportunities available for work pass holders is limited. You can also enter and leave the country during your holiday because you don’t have to worry about being held in the immigration.  Career Opportunities You can explore more jobs freely without reapplying for a separate [work visa](https://immigrationsg.com/beginners-guide-work-in-singapore-with-these-types-of-work-visas/), unlike holding a work pass. There’s also a risk of being rejected in the work pass application. So, getting your PR is the best option you have if you want to explore more career opportunities in Singapore. Not only that, most of the companies in Singapore prefer to hire locals and PR due to the foreign quota limit.  Education Offers & Subsidiary Singapore’s education system has been consistently ranked as one of the highest in the world; that’s why many international students prefer to study here. They are willing to pay whatever it takes to get into a Singapore school. By becoming a PR, you can take advantage of the education subsidies offered by the government. You can also enroll your children in public schools, and the tuition fees are much more affordable than international students. While children of EP and S Pass holders usually go to international schools where the fees are high.  Health Care / Hospitalization Subsidy Singapore’s healthcare services are one of the best in the world; it consists of excellent medical care, great facilities and experienced professionals. In 2020, the Bloomberg Health-Efficiency Index, which tracks life expectancy and medical spending, ranked Singapore first in the world for the most efficient healthcare. Becoming a PR will also entitle you to government healthcare subsidies and hospitalization. The government subsidizes hospital fees in public healthcare but ensures it provides excellent facilities.  Long-Term Passes Sponsorship For Family Members Another great benefit of becoming a PR is the ability to sponsor your family to stay with you in Singapore. You can apply for a [Long-Term Visit Pass (LTVP)](https://immigrationsg.com/long-term-visit-pass-application/) with your immediate family members which enables them to stay with you longer. By holding an LTVP, they can even live and work in Singapore without applying for a separate work pass. They just need to obtain a [Letter of Consent](https://immigrationsg.com/letter-of-consent/) from ICA. They can also apply for PR provided they’ve already stayed in Singapore for a minimum of 2 years.  World-class Social Security System Once you become a Singapore PR, you will also be entitled to the Central Provident Fund (CPF). It is a savings and pension plan for working Singaporeans and permanent residents primarily to fund your retirement, healthcare, and housing needs in Singapore.  Property Ownership Citizens and PRs can enjoy buying HDB apartments. HDB flats are government-subsidized housing units sold by the Housing & Development Board (HDB).
