@Marzipan007 me too!!

Thanks @beppi. The "Check work pass and application status"聽 is currently 馃敶 undergoing for maintenance. Past few days shows 24/7 馃煝Service Online but unable to proceed.

Will check back later @rchlrdc

I鈥檝e checked the MOM website today and my spass application was approved!! Waited for 3 business days.

@rchlrdc Congratulations!

The window of possible work pass processing times is clearly widening: It used to be 2 weeks to two monts, but now we see people like you, who are approved (or rejected) in days, and others are waiting for many months.

Hi, i am currently waiting for my EP..

Pending

Your application is being processed.

it is showing this status since June 25th 24, should i be worry... i keep asking to the HR team and no clear explanation

thanks

@beppi thank you!! I didn鈥檛 expect that it would take days for it to be approved. usually how long would they send the IPA to the employer once it is approved?

My timeline took 2 weeks for the first submission of application with docs, turned out to be invalid. Appeal was submitted and took 2 days for the approval. Now waiting for IPA docs from HR. All the best to everyone who's waiting 馃檹馃徏

Hi @Marzipan007..

Did MOM give the reason for invalid submission of your SPass, and what is the reason (if you kind to share in this forum)?

Thanks..

@F4i54L it was not made known to me explicitly but HR did a revision of salary prior to submitting an appeal.

Hi everyone,I'm an EP holder and have accepted a new job with a different employer. The new employer said they have processed my new EP application. However, I don't see the new application in the MOM system the past, whenever a new employer applies for a new EP the new application shows in the system almost immediately. Hence my question is: should I be worried that the new employer/their agency have actually not applied yet or the submission didn't go through and I should ask them to re-apply?Thank you! Appreciate the insights.

@stardusttattoos It takes a few days (up to a week, in busy periods) for a submitted application to be entered into MoM's system. If the application is still not shown after that, the employer should contact MoM to find out what went wrong!

@beppi This site also can be seen a status of EP processing. I have been checked "No record" for two weeks but the status was changed to "Pending"聽 after HR informed your application is pending via email.

Wanted to share my experience guys:

EP renewal application: July 29, 2024

MOM ask further documents i.e. certifications, CV and justification letter from HR as the company and I did not meet the required COMPASS points : August 7, 2024

EP Approved for 36 months: September 18, 2024

EP approved after 1 month & 19 days.聽 Definitely worth the wait and praise God for the approval. Keep praying 鈽�

Hi just wanted to updated here, the reason why my EP application was initially not reflected in the gov site: is because my employer had in fact NOT applied yet. The moment they hit apply, it then became reflected in the gov site and its been pending since then. According to MOM - they will give an updated after 10 business days so I'm still within this period now.For those of you where all is in order in your application (education certificates reverified correctly, your new employer is up to date with MOM in paying levy fees on time, you met COMPASS points, etc) and MOM does not request any additional documents - have any of you gotten the approval within 10 business days or did it drag any longer?Thank you

Hello @jokjokjoko,Good to know that there are chances that we get EP even if we don't get enough COMPASS points (anyway it will varies from company to company though)Just need small info: Are you meeting EP minimum salary limit? (eg: 30yrs non financial service EP qualifying salary: 6750SGD - link for EP salary limit: ) Thanks

@stardusttattoos The processing time is 4 - 8 weeks in most cases. Approvals within 10 days are rare.

@Nandy01 hi, for the C1 Salary I got 10points but did not reach 20, Total points I got was only 30 as per HR.

Thanks for the info

Hi all, company recently applied for EP on around 24 September, then the pending status appeared on 2 October on the website. It hasn't changed since then. For background, am a NUS recent graduate serving the tuition grant.

Will I be notified of the results? I've been checking the website everyday as HR says to monitor from there. Will HR know first or ?

Thanks in advance!

@MsPokemonmaster145 The employer is the actual applicant for your EP and thus will be informed by MoM.

@beppi I see, is it the case that the status might be pending but my employer has already been informed of the results? Or does the online status reflect the actual status?

@MsPokemonmaster145 The notification to the employer and/or the online status update may be delayed for a few days due to various circumstances.

I see, I will try and contact HR since it has already been 2 weeks since the pending status. Really worried here since my start date was already postponed by 2 weeks for the EP.

@MsPokemonmaster145 The EP processing time is usually 4 - 8 weeks, with some cases taking even longer. You are worrying too early - patience is the key here!

Got the EP approved yesterday, thanks god.

- EP applied 1 Oct

- EP results 16 Oct

Looks like similar timings for tuition grant students from my friends' anecdotes. Around 2 -3 weeks.

@jokjokjoko Hi Mas Joko, happy to hear your EP renewal has been approved for next 36 months and its good to know that there is possibility EP can be approved even its not hit 40 points, anyway may i know your education background got some points or its 0? Thanks.

Hi All, I am in process of renewing my EP and got a query with my edu verification background check. I have 16+ years experience with 4 degrees from all different Universities in different programme and will be my first time going through vetting agencies like RMI. Avaanz, etc.

My query is - do we usually get an agency help for the latest education degree verification OR do I engage them for all 4 degrees?聽 I understand there is a cost involved for each degree and also time, which technically not making sense of paying for all 4 and waiting long. P.S the latest 2 degrees are recent ones achieved in last 5 years and the remaining 2 were achieved before 2015.

Please let me know your past experience, thoughts or input. Appreciate your help.

@accoudummy03 I assume (but you better confirm this with MoM!) that you need to verify all degrees that are relevant for your job and doubted by MoM.

@jokjokjoko

Hey! were you able to reach the EP Qualifying Salary (Stage 1) despite your COMPASS score being not 40 pts?

There is a chart in This is different from C1.

@accoudummy03 verification of latest one聽 is enough. No need to verify all your degrees,聽 please ask your hr they know it well.

Hi all, I am a Malaysian, i got a job offer a few months ago signed all the necessary documents, now i am just waiting for my ep to be approved.

EP application date: 22/10/24

Status now: Pending.

HR has received no updates from MOM and no additional supporting or documents were requested by MOM.

Just wondering if there are any Malaysians in the forum that are similar shoe as me, as i heard that Malaysian are given leeway on the EP and have faster turnaround rate (not sure how true this is).

@Back Jlack There鈥檚 nothing like that. EP application decision is now based on COMPASS and that has zero points for nationality.

@avinashjha

This is what i heard from my HR haha, i ll update here again once i get my pass (if i get it).

My EP got approved today. Timeline -

Applied late evening on Friday, 15th November

Status updated to pending on Saturday, 16th

Approved on Thursday, 21st Nov

Education Certs verification was done in August itself. Took 15 days.

This is my 5th New EP (2 renewals in between) in 7 years.

Few things wanted to share -

1. EP status can be checked the next day of application. Always the same case in all 7 applications.
2. My 4th EP was applied, just two days after 3rd EP Approval. I don鈥檛 think MOM has any such thing as issues with frequent job changes, unless the application has merits and eligibility.
3. Average EP processing time, based on observations of other 10-12 others people I know is less than 10 business days, if education certs are verified, all docs are submitted and COMPASS is >40.

i will make a separate post giving inputs based on my knowledge on credit card debts. Came across many posts related to it and I think I can give insights on that. But need to get more first hand accounts.

Sharing my experience

Have spass and EP approved before

EP renewed last January and applied to new company around September

Applied for spass (rejected) - new company have no quota

Hr made a mistake in submission because they say my score in compass is less than 40

Applied for epass (rejected) - mom said the company still need to post the job in mycareersfuture

Appeal for epass(rejected) - new company appealed said that the company have less than 10 employees, mom said to still post the job in mycareersfuture

They posted the job in mycareersfuture, Waited for 22 days+

Applied for Epass(rejected) - the application have errors with name and degree mismatch with verification company

Applied for Epass(pending)

Date of application: Nov 14

Thanks

@Back Jlack I suggest you should not be posting such things on public forum (your HR mentioning it is itself wrong) as this violates MOM fair hiring guidelines. Your remark suggests your company favoured you over candidates because of your nationality, which is illegal. You never know who can use any information in what way from the internet.

Employer received a notification from MOM:

Date: Nov 26

We know this application is important to you. However, we need more time to review it. We will notify you by email once a decision is made.

@aimocomia

Hi can I ask after your EP Invalid status (rejected) and then the appeal, does the status change to Pending or it stays in Invalid?

@gummybear21

When I checked before the status becomes Pending
