Once your documents are approved by MOM, a transfer maid can usually start in just 3–5 working days. This is much faster than waiting weeks or months for a new maid from overseas.
Transfer maids have worked in Singaporean homes before, so they’re already used to local customs and routines. This means they usually need less training or supervision.
