2 job offers, can I have both companies apply for E-pass at same time? by jtbatt
Hi, As the title says, I have two job offers in the same week, after a month or so of a discouraging job search. Very exciting week to say the least and nervous about the results.. (More questions and concerns but not yet) This questions first: ...
Think very carefully before taking the next step. Two applications cannot be processed simultaneously. The first company will need to withdraw the application only after which the second company can apply but will need a strong reason from you for ... Read More
Visit pass extension request to MOM by daniel2488
Hi, I’m currently residing in Singapore. I have been in Singapore since 2011 and studied at Poly. I have been working with S pass since after Poly and achieved degree (part-time) and master (part-time). After working for many years, I decided ...
Understand your situation. Did you call MoM and have a chat around this? Don't worry, I don't think student pass approvals should be problem...Should come through soon. Maybe Beppi will have more idea about student pass applications. Read More

Hi My STVP expires on the 28th of April. Considering the ongoing second wave and the lockdowns being announced across different states in India will it be enough to ask for an extension? Should i also mention that both me and my wife have EPs in ...
Well our flight got cancelled by the airlines and was rescheduled for one a few days later...on that basis we rescheduled it for one 14 days later and filed for an extension through the ex employer...i guess they're being very considerate and ... Read More

That's interesting. It means they're considering the situation in India and giving extensions. So considerate of them. Gonna try that route now. Read More

Yes i got that but when you filed for the next extension did you again book flight which were a further 14 days away and use the option stating 'his/her flight is within the next 14 days and needs an extension of stay' ? Read More

As expected ICA rejected my application. Says MoM has to take a call on extending my Stvp since they issued it. When i called MoM asking if we can file a request for another 14 day extension they said since we already have a ticket booked for the ... Read More

My EP application was filed on the 24th of March and is still pending. My best guess is my employer has messed up some details in my application. My wife's IPA has just been filed so we will need atleast 2-3 weeks for her approval to come ... Read More

Is yours an EP renewal with an existing employer or an EP with a new employer? The reason i'm asking is ours are EP approvals with new employers and my wife's ex employer had already helped once to get an extension from MoM based on the ... Read More

The medical ground we used didn't work for us as MoM rejected it stating the medical condition (high BP) wasn't serious enough. The MC has to explicitly state that the person is 'unfit to fly' else it will be rejected. V75 is for ICA ... Read More

No update as such. EPs are still pending. STVP now expires on the 28th and we're not sure if we should again reach out to my wife's ex employer for an extension through MoM or if we should take the ICA route this time. Going back to India ... Read More

We filed an extension using 'Not fit to fly' option initially supported by a medical certificate but ruthless MoM rejected it on the very last day stating it wasn't life threatening, but instead asked us to file a 2 weeks extension using ... Read More
