Hi,

I used to work in Singapore and had an EP with a bachelor's degree, which was not verified (before COMPASS), and left Singapore in 2023. I now hold a master's degree and have received a job offer in Singapore. When applying for EP, should I submit only my master's degree or both my bachelor's and master's degrees? The background screening company only verified my master's degree

Submit both ofcourse. As you already worked before, MOM would already be having your FIN related details which consists of your past application and education info as well. There's no point in hiding bachelors

whichever educations submitted to MOM for EP application must be verified regardless whether already having EP before with bachelor, it wasnt verified

@edward, @Ozbazin, thank you, folks! So you mean that it is not worth submitting only a master's degree, because Mom will anyway request verification of the bachelor's degree from the old record?

If you declare only your Master, and MoM already knows that this is not the complete information, you run the risk of being rejected for inconsistent data. Better stay with the (full) truth!
