EP application

Native19

Hi i am a malaysian who recently got offered a position in a singapore company. I hold a malaysian diploma and a UK university based degree. Its been around 2 weeks and my incredibly nice employer whom used an agent to apply for the EP is saying there is still no status. I have over 8 years experience. Couldnt possibly see why it would take long to approve my pass. Is 2 weeks normal without any status/under processing? Thanks in advance.. :/

For EP processing, anything up to a month is quite normal, and it can sometimes also take two months.
So relax and be patient!

Hi Bepi,
I hv applied for the EP pass on 23rd of April  through my employer.  Its been 12 days now  the status shows its underprocess. I m worried  and want to know how much time does it take For an IPA to get cleared  . TIA ☺

Processing of EP applications can take anywhere between a few days and one or two months.
A major factor in this is the background checks and verifications MoM does at the applicants previous countries, schools and employers - if they do not respond in time, the process takes longer.
There is nothing you can do to accelerate this, so just sit back and wait!

My Employer applied for my EP renewal on 17th April , But still status pending . I am in SG from 3 years and every other time it never took more than 5 days . Seriously worried !! Any Suggestion why its taking this much time.

Too Bad .I am also getting the intution that My EP will also be rejected

As I said, there is nothing you can do but wait.
It makes no difference whether you worry or not, so I suggest you don't!
