. Maybe I've been lucky and hit the mid-morning sweet spot once the early birds have been processed and before the majority of the tourists arrive! Did it 3 times last year arriving around 9:30; longest I was there was until around 11:15.
Hi Korrin one quick note - in SG now you apply online first, then once the application is approved you go and drop off your passport, hard copy documents and fee. You then pick up your passport the following afternoon. The system is pretty user-friendly - I used it last year to get both tourist and business visas. Further info here
