As a Singapore Permanent Resident (PR), you and your family are free to live, work and buy property in Singapore and become part of Singapore society. You are eligible for a variety of benefits, such as freedom of travel to and from Singapore and priority access for your children to Singapore's public education system, as well as the CPF (Singapore Provident Fund) that your employer needs to pay for you.

Holders of PEP, EP, SP can submit permanent resident applications to the Immigration Department after a certain period of work, and the Singapore government introduces 20,000-30,000 permanent residents every year to maintain the competitiveness of the population. Applicants who have successfully obtained permanent resident status can apply for a long-term visitor card for their spouses, children under the age of 21 and parents.
