Worried about my employment status

Hi,

I am really worried about my employment status as my EP application was still pending. Would like to know if anyone who are tuition bond recipients is facing the same issue as me. My HR applied for E-pass for me & it receives "Pending inputs from vetting agencies. Expected outcome is 2 months from the Date of Application."

Should I be worried? Are there instances where they will reject my pass?

I've been google-ing and reading forums but I realized that other people are getting it faster than me. Moreover, the anti-foreigner sentiment and policies seem to be increasing these days so I am concerned this might affect my employability here and my ability to fulfill the bond.

If MoM says 鈥榩ending vetting agency to revert鈥�, then it鈥檚 not an issue at MoM rather at the educational institution or previous employer with whom vetting agency is liaising with. If they support and respond in an effective manner then MoM can provide the outcome in a faster way. Good luck

Dear everyone,

My Epass application is still pending but now the status "We need inputs from other agencies to process this application. In most instances, the outcome will be available in 4 weeks' time. Some cases may take longer."

What does it meant?

Not sure where you have confusion. Now, writing below in detailed note on how it works at MoM:

For most foreign employees (excluding Malaysians), the government collaborates with third-party vetting agencies to add to their background check process. As a result, additional 3 to 4 weeks of processing should be expected. It includes Professional bodies (like CFA, CAIA, CAs, FRM, CRM, SAP and other certifications), accreditation agency support. That鈥檚 why MoM says 鈥減ending from agencies鈥� not 鈥減ending from vetting agency鈥� because the involvement of multiple parties.

Let me know if you still found it difficult to understand.
