Top 6 Factors to Consider When Choosing a Singapore PR Agency
1. Experience and Immigration Services
When you're looking for a PR agency, don’t get too caught up in claims like "90% Approval Rates" or "99.9% Guaranteed Success." A lot of the time, those promises are based on applicants who already have strong profiles, so their chances are already pretty high. The real difference comes from finding an agency that knows how to improve your profile and offer solutions that actually help. That’s where Kenneth & Co. comes in—we focus on boosting your chances of PR approval by offering personalized services like work permit upgrades and improving your educational qualifications which can make all the difference to improving your PR approval chances.

2. Tailored Approach to Your Unique Profile
Every PR applicant has a different background and set of qualifications. Whether you're a tech professional, entrepreneur, or family member, it’s essential to choose a PR agency that tailors its approach to your unique circumstances.
Why this matters:
A personalized PR strategy is essential because a generic approach can overlook key aspects of your profile that make your application truly stand out. For instance, when presenting your case to the Singapore Immigration Authorities, a tech professional should emphasize their innovative contributions to Singapore’s economy, while an entrepreneur might highlight their role in nurturing local talent and creating job opportunities for Singaporeans.
In the competitive PR landscape, a one-size-fits-all strategy simply won’t cut it. We strongly encourage applicants to showcase their unique contributions to Singapore in their PR applications. Whether through innovation, business growth, or other significant impacts, demonstrating how you’ve made a difference can significantly enhance your chances of approval.

3. Comprehensive PR Services
A good PR agency provides end-to-end services, guiding you through every step of the application process, from initial consultation to post-PR approval support. Instead of just submitting documents, the agency should work with you to craft a compelling narrative that strengthens your profile. Every document submitted to the ICA is crucial, including any updates to your job, address, or other significant changes that could affect your approval. This also includes submitting the relevant data in the format that the ICA requires. At Kenneth & Co., we focus on supporting our clients throughout their entire journey, ensuring that no detail is overlooked from start to finish.
The timeliness of your PR application submission can make a difference, especially with ICA’s processing times sometimes extending several months. An agency that emphasizes speed and efficiency ensures that your application is submitted promptly, with minimal delays.
What to consider:
- Do they provide continuous support, even after submitting the application?
- Efficiency and timeliness of submission
- Can they guarantee an error-free PR application?
- Are they able to advise on how you can enhance your profile?
- If you are a work permit:
- Does the agency offer services for work permit holders?
Why Kenneth & Co?
At Kenneth & Co., we offer a complete suite of services, including a free initial consultation, tailored profile enhancement, and post-application follow-ups. We are your one-stop solution for upgrading your work pass and applying for PR, with regular updates to ensure a smooth process. On top of that, we prioritize efficiency and ensure that your PR application is submitted in a timely manner. Our streamlined processes and expert consultants work to minimize delays, giving your application the best chance at a quick and successful outcome.
4. Proven Track Record and Testimonials
Client testimonials and success stories provide valuable insights into an agency’s performance. Make sure to ask for examples of clients with similar backgrounds to yours who successfully secured PR. Your chances of PR approval depend not only on your personal profile but also on how well the agency has performed with similar cases. Agencies that can show a high success rate across various applicant profiles—whether professionals, entrepreneurs, or work permit holders—demonstrate their capability to tailor strategies effectively.
Tips For Work Permits: Many PR agencies focus on professionals and entrepreneurs, but if you are a work permit holder who require a different level of assistance, looking for agencies that specialize in work pass upgrades is important. As it can help you transition to a higher pass (S Pass or E Pass) to increase your chances of PR eligibility.
Why this matters:
Regardless for any services, a proven track record gives you confidence in your decision. Testimonials from clients with similar profiles—such as entrepreneurs, professionals, or work pass holders—offer a glimpse into the agency’s effectiveness.
Why Kenneth & Co?
We are proud of our many client success stories, such as Tan Zhi Yong who, with our guidance, upgraded from a Work Permit to an S Pass and secured his PR within two years. His success is just one example of how we help individuals navigate the PR application process effectively.
5. Transparency in Pricing and Satisfaction
The cost of applying for Singapore PR can rise unexpectedly if additional documents or services are required after submission. Therefore, it's crucial to select an agency that maintains transparency in its pricing and avoids hidden fees later in the process. An agency’s reputation is built not only on its success rates but also on how it treats its clients. Look for an agency that is recognized for its high level of client satisfaction, transparency, and clear communication throughout the PR journey.
Questions to ask:
- Are there hidden fees?
- What’s included in the initial consultation fee?
- Are extra services, such as appeals or additional document submissions, charged separately?
Why Kenneth & Co?
At Kenneth & Co., we prioritize transparent pricing. Your initial consultation is free, and we provide a clear breakdown of costs and services from the outset. To ensure our services are accessible to everyone, we also offer flexible payment plans. Client satisfaction is our top priority. We maintain transparency at every stage of the process, ensuring that our clients feel supported from the initial consultation through to post-approval follow-ups. Our trusted Singapore PR consultants are always on hand to answer your questions and guide you through the complexities of your PR journey.
6. Post-PR Application Support
As transparent as we are, unfortunately, not all PR applications are approved on the first try. But handling a rejection requires expertise. We urge consumers to look for agencies that offer assistance with PR application appeals and know how to improve your chances after an initial rejection as your PR journey doesn’t end after submitting your application.
Many applicants face challenges, such as changes in personal information or requests for additional documents from the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA). Choose a PR agency that offers post-PR application support to guide you through any obstacles that arise.
Why this matters:
Mistakes or misinformation in your PR application can have serious consequences under Singapore’s Immigration Act. You need an agency that can guide you through complex situations to avoid errors and ensure smooth processing.
Why Kenneth & Co?
We offer continuous support, ensuring that no detail is missed and that you submit an error-free application. We stay with our clients even after the PR approval, assisting with post-approval processes like document collection and employment status updates. If your PR application has been rejected, don’t worry. At Kenneth & Co., we specialize in PR application appeals and know how to strengthen your case for a successful second attempt. Our consultants will guide you through the appeal process, identifying areas for improvement to maximize your chances.
