Hi, I get an offer and the company has started applying for my ep from end of September. And now is 5 weeks passed. I came to Singapore in the middle of this period, waiting for the application approval. However, I only have 10 days left before my tourist visa expired. Do I need to apply for an extension in ICA, or actually ICA know my EP application is in process, so that I do not need to apply for extension. I am saying this, it's because previously my friend here applying a dependent pass, and the pass has been granted before his wife's tourist visa is going to be expired. So they ask ICA whether they need to do an extension, and the ICA officer tell them not necessary since they know that the pass is in progress. So I don't know whether I can also spare that too. Thank you a lot for your all replies!
