EP approval during MCO

Hi guys,

Has anyone received an update with their EP application during this MCO either from ESD or MEDC?

I have the same question as I am waiting for mine as well.
MDEC is closed from June 1 to June 14. You can expect an update after that.
Hi Padma06,

Thanks for answer, but aren’t they working online for visas approval? I guess their office is closed for endorsement and collecting passports but they’re still working online for other requests related to visas.
MDEC is 100% operational
Yes, MDec is still processing and providing  updates for EP applications ya.
Yes, MDEC is working online but they've already mentioned that you can expect delay in the approvals. So may be you can wait for some more time.
I am waiting for my visa from ESD, it's been more than a month.
Anyone who already have received their EP approval? Mine was submitted last May 27 and still waiting and haven’t received the approval yet :(
You can have HR to check with the Mdec on this. It is common for  new and renewal applications take 3-4weeks during pandemic..
Yep already checked in with my HR and it’s still under  IMM: Decision stage
Online approvals are happening, albeit slow. Just be patient.
Yes be patient and they are still processing it during EMCO, FMCO

Please check the status of Your application here, Put Application & Passport number. You can find the status there or perhaps if there is ay pending document.

ESD is working very effectively. I have completed in one month.
Hi Rosee01,

Once you get online approval, you need to submit passport for endorsement, however you should take appointment through ESD System. I guess post 22 July, you can communicate more conveniently.
Got my EP approved yesterday :) Anyone knows how long is the approval for myentry?
3-5 working day upon submission ya. if you are having trouble getting in the first attempt, do let me know if you need assistance as i've helped a lot of expatriates to obtain MyEntry. I am reachable at  60125083182.

There will be a cooling period of 14 days if MyEntry is rejected twice ya...Thanks!
