Spass Approval Taking Too long.

Sazzad_Joy

I have been working in Singapore for the past 2 years on SPass. Recently landed a job with 4k threshold. I'm now back in my home country waiting for approval. My previous spass is still valid and the new application is taking too long to be approved, applied on 2nd OCT 2025. Any possible reason?

This is just 6 weeks - fully in the normal range of 4 - 8 weeks (for most cases).

The employer could contact MoM to ask what the status is.
