Probably some general questions about your relationship. I've seen on facebook forum a lot of people got calls from Singapore office like the one you mentioned.

I thought they only call after medical request. Would you mind sharing your timeline, please? I got the acknowledgement letter from Singapore office around April 27th. My wife might expect to get a call from them soon.

Thanks.

Hi, we have similar timeline. Our application was received on 4th December, 2017 and Singapore visa office start processing our application on March 6, 2018. So my wife can also get a similar call from SVO. Thanks for the update. Please let us know if you get any other request from SVO

Hi frmBD,

I saw your post mentioned that you have already received pre-approval service invitation after 170 days? I think it mean your application is pretty much 90% approved, unless there is something wrong during the background check. I think your passport request will come very soon.

Hello Tam_ngo and frmBD,

we applied from Thailand and received Pre-Arrival Service approval perhaps six months ago, before requests for Police Clearance and Medicals. We used AEIP-SUCCESS which was very responsive, free and was totally online.

One or other of the services seemed heavily focused on Chinese applicants / starting points, and prepared the process with an expensive travel requirement to attend workshops. This seems highly impractical and unnecessary, although as with all in-person events, much can be gained that could not with virtual or online attendance. However, $$$ is required!!!!

Check them ALL and make your choice according to your own tastes and needs. Good Luck!

BTW, the final 10% seems to take the longest! Don't worry, it will happen!

My wife got the same call about 2 days ago from SVO (one day or about the same day we got the health check request document online), we were surprised since we didn't expect this at all. She said they only asked her questions about me, not about our relationship. Our application was sent in Jan 25, 2018

Whats after medical exam do you know?
I think it is difficult to say. No one knows how much progress has been made on your file. I saw, some applicant did their medical even before the file has been transferred to VO. We did one month after I got AOR2. After medical we got pre arrival after one month. Each case different.
So better stay relaxes, although it is very difficult

Is Pre-arrival means that they completed the application process? I like to know what process you will still need to do after the medical is reviewed. I like to book her flight as soon as we can, since being away for 1/2 a year+ from your newly wedded spouse is hard.
