Dear all, i m married with a singapore gal in 2005 but we seperated in 2008.

In 2012, i met a malaysian work permit gal. She recently gave birth in malaysia.

Baby is mine. Tho i seperated with my wife but we have yet to go thru divorce,

only now we start to proceed with divorce.

ok. NOW MY QUESTION IS

A) WHEN I SETTLED MY DIVORCE AND I WAN TO MARRIED HER, CAN I APPLY FOR MY BABY TO SETTLE DOWN HERE?

B)BCOS WHEN MY BABY BORN I STILL NOT YET DIVORCE SO WILL I BE CHARGED IN ANYWAY FOR HAVING A BABY WITH OTHERS WHILE STILL BEING IN A MARRIAGE?

Really need some kind soul out there to enlighten me....

Adultery not criminal offence, so need not worry too much.

my main worries is question A...

You can apply. But question is when and if it will approved

TS,

I think your main worry now is how much maintenance fee your wife will be requesting, we are living in a society protected by 'woman charters'

Thought not a chargeable offense...but if kenna found out u commit adultery by your wife and she present this in court...u will probably end up paying more alimony...so u r treading on dangerous water...

we are going thru a process whereby she gave up maintenance fee and i gave up flat. means i dun take a single cents from the sale of flat and she cant sought maintenance fee..
so my main concern is still question A...

Thanks bro joscklee,Greendevil,Blast88 and maxsee for the effort in replying my question..

TS, u need a lawyer to draft the agreement bet u and ur wife...or she can turn around later and claim alimony.

On item A, if the child is not a Singaporean, u can apply and the chances of getting PR for child is good since u're Singaporean and the child is yours. Of course, there will be conditions the gov look at, eg, ur ability to provide for the child.

Not sure if I remembered it right, but penal code states that having sex OUTSIDE marriage is a crime

Won't be a chargeable offence, but wife can use it as a weapon against you for more moolah.......
