准备给父母申请long term social visit pass，但是不知道是不是一定要人先到了新加坡，然后才可以申请。还是可以先申请，拿到了寄回去。本人是 pr.
多谢回复。

anyway if it s approved, they need to do medical check up here

you need the DE card to apply, which you can only get after your parents arrived. It will only be activiated after immigration.

你可以直接帮他们申请（同时申请入境签证，同一张单子，打个勾就行了）

然后拿到IPA，就安排他们过来，体检，拿证
