LOC can be applied but it will be comes under the new rules if by May 1, your LOC application is still pending. Chances are likely that it may be approved before that. Good luck

Hi suriya,

LoC Application submitted on March 19th 2021. But the status is still pending. Is it possible to get approve before may 1st or it will get rejected. Please let me know the possibilities.

how about LOC which are applied for renewal and in pending status ?

It is a new Application. Not renewal. Thanks.

Whether it was a new application or a renewal, after May 1, employer has to apply work pass for such employees. So, we have hardly 3 days left before the new rule is going to impose so chances are very unlikely that MoM will approve new or renew LOC at this time. So, reach out your employer and talk to them on applying work pass for you. Good luck

Hi,
Ya 3 days left only but why you said chances are unlikely?
If MOM wanted to, they may already approve but set the outcome only out on these days, even on Apr 30th. If they reject they can put reject status anytime already no need to hold...

Just my thought

The way you are describing as if you know all the insiders including how many applications are pending and how MoM works. Then no point of discussion.

We have different views. You also said that MOM simply holds the applications until May 1st then they no need to work on it. Why did you think so 馃�� then?

I just described what we observed from MOM/MOE once outcomes released. The status changed at anytime (not in normal working hours). Mine come in early morning, or late afternoon, or massive MOE results released at 8-8.30am. So I think they set the timing for outcome released in their system. What we received is just the new status of application on website and an email with pdf letter sent to HR which is easily to set up automatically from their system. Nothing else, no physical letters were sent.

Of course from my reply above I stated that I 鈥済uess鈥� so. So peace!

In this circumstance no one can tell anything precisely, I just guess based on what observed so far. Prior to this May 1st announcement, MOM is still receiving LOC applications as normal. On March 3rd they announced new policy, do you think many employers/DP candidates can manage to match jobs and apply LOC and make the numbers increase that much? And how many current EPs can be renewed in Mar and Apr just in time to apply LOC for renewed DPs? Not so many to say a big change la. In fact, once the announcement came, job advertisements started to remove DPs from the required candidates. Employers don鈥檛 want to waste their time...

Of course MOM may ignore new LOC applications and finally rejects in this time, have to accept that fact. But it might be MOM delayed tactic to release outcomes only in Apr end to reduce number of incoming applications.
We wait then 馃槉

Yes, the LoC applicants can wait but same time liaise with their respective employer for plan B (to prepare for work pass application).

MoM doesn鈥檛 send physical letters. I said paper work which means processing of an application, reviewing each documents, verifying its authenticity, sending documents to different sections of MoM for their approvals etc. I鈥檓 NOT referring physical hard copies nor saying physical letters to send. So, understand it correctly.

I know MoM updates EPONLINE middle of the night, weekend or any other time because it is not updated by individual officers. It鈥檚 a data feed which are done through batches.

I don鈥檛 say something just like that. My observations are more than 10yrs where 7yrs having involvement in this site as a volunteer. So, my response was based on past observations.

Let鈥檚 wait and happy to hear from you on 01 May if you have received your LoC. Good luck

Thanks.
Mine and my friends got approval already this week.
Hope everyone will get theirs soon.

Even if one does have an E-Pass with the current employer..Still the new employer has to apply for a new pass if the candidate is hired.

Does it mean that just because I am a DP holder I cannot be hired for, as the employer cannot apply for a pass?

In both the cases of an employee with a work pass and a DP with out work pass, the employer has to apply for a pass. So I am confused why this statement. Is it because with the new restriction, employers are less willing to apply for work pass?

Hi,
You are right that in current situation, employers are not willing to apply work passes for employees, due to many reasons (quota/cost/gov restrictions...).

Foreigners are allowed to work in Singapore only if they have a work pass, and employers have to apply it for them.

For the statement you concerned, it means that this employer just wanted to hire only Citizens or PRs/LTVP only (as they have rights to work in Singapore).

So in current situation it's is not likely or really difficult to get a job. Thank you so much Hanah and beppi for clarification.

Sruthi, still there are jobs that employers can apply Epass or Spass and if you are in Singapore then you have more chance compared to overseas candidates
