My mom is a high school drop out, but she is very good at waitressing and what not. I am 15 and have to younger brothers the age of 6 and 8.My mom makes less than $1100 per month. What, if possible, would my family have to do in order to move and live in Singapore?


Answer
Based on your description, your mom might be eligible to work in S'pore as a waitress (or similar job), but she is not eligible to bring you & your brothers along. Even if all of you can go, your lives would be barely on (or likely below) subsistence level in S'pore. The below explains why.

If your mom were to work in S'pore as a full-time waitress (or as some other unskilled/ semi-skilled labour), she has to get her prospective employer to apply a Work Permit for her, before she can go & work in S'pore. (Foreign nationals on social, long term visit or student visas are not allowed to work legally in S'pore.)

Work Permits are issued to non-degree graduate workers from "approved" countries (Malaysia, SE Asia, Indochina, NE Asia, China, Indian subcontinent), & who would be earning < S$2,000/mth during their period of employment in S'pore.

* Work Permit - Before you apply (S'pore Ministry of Manpower): http://www.mom.gov.sg/foreign-manpower/passes-visas/work-permit-fw/before-you-apply/Pages/overview.aspx

For you & your brothers to go live in S'pore, your mom would have to sponsor you guys for Dependent's Passes. However, only the "higher-class" P1/ P2/ Q1 Employment Pass holders & S Pass holders with minimum $2,800 monthly salary are allowed to apply for Dependant's Passes for their family members (ie. spouse, unmarried/ adopted children below 21 years old). As such, you & your siblings would not be able to accompany your mom.

In addition, waitressing jobs pay only S$5-6/hr (inexperienced) to S$8-9/hr (experienced), & there is also no tipping culture in S'pore. So your mom's monthly salary would likely to be relatively low. Even if your whole family are allowed to stay in S'pore, a monthly income of just S$1,100/ mth (ie. before mandatory CPF deduction by the government, ie. S$300+ based on above salary) is going to make your lives VERY abject & miserable, considering the high costs of living in S'pore. In fact, there might not be enough money to send your brothers & you to school. Also, all of you would have to settle for at most 1 basic meal per day.

Do note that S'pore is amongst the 10 ten most expensive places in the world to live in. Even professionals from USA & Australia have commented that most daily necessities are much cheaper back home than in S'pore. (Housing & cars are even more exorbitantly expensive.)

A foreign single-income earner with 3 school-going kids would need at least S$2,500/ mth to live in S'pore -- assuming they choose to squeeze into a "big" rental room (S$600-800/mth, may not include utility bills for 4 people) in a public HDB flat, as well as forgo most entertainment/ luxury expenses.

Could a young professional earning US$80,000 a year and driving a full-size luxury car be a sugardaddy?
