You have a 30 days validity period to stay legally when your EP or work pass is cancelled. In this case you will not have an issue as your employer already applied to renew your EP. Take a print out of that status and carry in case an issue arise. For interim, you can stay as Long as your EP case is pending. If in case it was not successful then you have to leave Singapore. In a common approach, Employer should have applied your EP renewal 2months prior to its expiry. Good luck.

Surya is correct that upon EP expiry you automatically get an SVP (visitor visa) for 15 or 30 days, which allows you to stay in Singapore - but NOT work!
If you want to continue working, please inform your employer - they can get a temporary EP extension until the renewal is processed.
You can also not leave Singapore and return with that SVP.

Hi Amol,

I mean Has your EP being approved now?  I am also facing the same challenge. I have been in Singapore for 3 Years. MY EP is getting expired on 12-Aug-2017. The Employer has applied on 23-jun-17. But the status is still pending.
