Hello everyone!
My application for WHP was accepted and now I have time till 29th Dec 2019 to pick up the pass in Singapore. However, my concern is the starting date of the pass. Most of the internships I applied start in the mid-Jan or beginning of February at the latest and last for 6 months, which means the pass will expire by the time I finish my internship. Little did I expect that they proceed with my application that fastly (less than 1 week) while they mentioned it takes 3 weeks up to 2 months.
So my question is: The starting date of my pass will be the date I pick up my pass or the date I start my internship?
If it is the case, is it possible to travel outside Singapore when the pass expires and then returns with my ASEAN passport - visa exemption for 30 days to finish the rest of my internship? Otherwise, I'd appreciate if anyone proposes any better alternative!
Thanks all in advance!
