Hi All,

My application shows "Pass approval stage" from one week and still waiting for the approval letter.

Any advise on how long it takes to move to the "pass issuance stage" ?
My current EP was shortened to 31st Oct, so do I need a special pass until the new EP is approved ?

Whoever needs this information, sharing my timeline here.

14th Sept - Submitted the application

19th Sept - Application returned, asking for the latest premise license of the employer.

25th Sept - Re-submitted with the license

3rd Oct - Application returned with some query about my previous salary

6th Oct - Replied with a clarification

11th Oct - Application returned asking to cancel existing work permit

20th Oct - Replied with the cancellation page, application was in "Pass approval stage"

30th Oct - Application moved to "Pass issuance stage" from "Pass approval stage". Received approval letter.

In my experience updates to the application usually happen after 4 PM, but not always.

Excuse me, do we must go abroad when we wait for ESD?

Not a requurement

in my case my previous visa was cancelled on a calculated date based on the 60 days approval timeline of ESD
