Hi all,
Anyone got his/her EP renewal approval recently? How long it took from submitting the application to getting the IPA?

Thanks!!

You should have searched this forum, several posts outline the time frames in recent times.

Could take 3-4 days, some have taken a few months if MoM has raised flags. Would urge you to read through the posts.
Just sharing my experience if it helps others

My EP Renewal application was lodged on 23/Sep

Approved today 01/10/2021

So just a weeks time it takes.

All the best to all
Congrats mate

Hi,
Thank you so much!!
This is not my first job but is my first job in Singapore. I previously worked in China and relocated to Singapore (and worked for the current employer) 2 years ago.
Salary hike does not matter here as I do not have any historical salary recorded with MOM.

How did you work in Singapore these two years for your current employer without a record at MoM???

Hello,
Congrats ! :))
If it was approved this morning ; what is the window for you to enter the country ? Just tryin to have more info abt the timing :))
The IPA will show a validity / expiry date. Just come to Singapore and have the EP issued before that!

Hi Beppi,
Maybe I did not explain it clearly. My salary in past 2 years is recorded with MOM, I mean my salary hike from my previous job in China to my current job is not relevant.
