Hi my EP has been pending for more than 45 days. I'm constantly keep in touch with the consultancy they are telling nowadays it takes more than 2 months for an EP to be approved. I'm very nervous on this. Could you please anyone help me by giving some encouraging words.

Yes, nowadays it is quite common for waiting for EP to be approved.
In my case, my EP finally got approved after five months waiting! So just need to see and wait.
Good luck for your application too.

Blissey9's post above is correct.
But since you mentioned "consultancy" (with which I assume you mean job placement agency), I would like to add the following:
Such agencies are not always honest or trustworthy. Just to be sure that they actually submitted your application, you should ask for the FIN number and, with that, log into MoM's EPOnline system to see the status yourself.
If they refuse to give you the FIN, or claim they don't have it (it is automatically generated and sent to them about a week after submission), they are cheats!

Thanks blissey9. I'm hoping for the best result

Hi beppi,

Thanks for your reply. I have been provided the FIN number by the consultancy. I'm regularly loggin in to the MOM site. Nowadays loggin in to the MOM site is like doing daily activities for me ... Anyways I can't do much on this, but I'm praying and hoping for the best result.

In that case, there is nothing you can do but wait. (I"m not sure praying would have an influence on MoM ...)

You can see the reason very clearly that last 5 years your salary did not increase (not sure the reason though but shocking to see). Good luck

Yep. Life is very unpredictable...
