Dear Mdm,
You will not be able to apply for a new EC even if your partner removes his name from his property. This is because there is a 30 months waiting period before you both are eligible. Seeking a MP help in the appealing is one option but to be honest the chance of success is pretty slim.
You may want to explore other options such as getting a private condo which may make more sense. This is because you will not need to wait out the 3 years construction and 5 years MOP before you are eligible to sell. Looking at the recent transacted land prices for EC, I feel that the EC has lost its shine and the potential upside has reduced significantly because of the high land prices. Therefore, private condos may be a better option with the shorter holding period and higher upside potential.
Please feel free to contact me so that I can understand your situation better and provide you with further assistance.
Regards,
Nick Tan
