EP Status Pending

beppi

It’s time to just ignore this Sadaiyappan, as he is not able or willing to understand our answers.
All that can be said (without being MoM) about his case has already been said.

We have already responded to your query, but you keep on asking same questions repeatedly. Ask your employer to check with MoM that why it’s not showing in EPOnline. Let your employer come back to you what MoM said. There is nothing I or you or anyone can do.

hi surya..
today i asked my employer,they replied like,
your old status (withdrawn) will not change to  pending .. when will the new application get approved , you can see the approved status only
1.the above is  it true or not??
than employer said my status is now in pending in employer portal 2.(employer login to eponline with singpass to see my application status)) Is also true or not???

beppi

Do you have reason to mistrust your employer?
If so, maybe it is better not to join them!

sadaiyappan harini

sorry beppi & surya for the repeated questions..
i trust my employer .. but i paid money to agency..
the above answer i haven't heard .. so only i ask you & surya.   
i above answer was true or not ??
please give proper guidance...

beppi

If you paid money to an agent for the EP application, you have been cheated and there is probably no job and no application.
By law, the employer has to cover the (very reasonable) fee for the EP and also all agency fees in case the decide not to apply on their own (which is easy). Charging the job seeker is illegal.
But that, too, has been written many times on the forum. Please in future read before you post!

Hi..

My Singapore EP status: Pending

Application Date : 21/10/2019

Hoping to get some update by next Monday..

Does our employer gets the update before status change on MoM site..
Just curious..

beppi

Rishi1993: You can expect the result 1 - 2 months after the application date. Some cases may take longer or shorter, which seems to be a random thing.
Your employer is not notified of status changes before the final result (approval/rejection) or if additional information or papers are needed.

Thanks Beppi for your response..

Hi,

My EP application current status is "Pending" and the application was submitted on 31st Oct 2019.

I came to SG on EP in Jan last week of 2019, where I have changed 2 companies so far. Now the current application was raised by 3rd company. Please let me know if there would be any issue due to changes in job often as I heard something negative from someone.

Thanks & Regards

beppi

It is true: MoM does not like job-hoppers and may reject your application for that reason.
Better stay three years or longer in your current job if you want certainty!

Hi Beppi,

Thank you.  But I am on contract jobs. May I know if it is a problem for such jobs also?

beppi

KVDan: If this was clear from the beginning and the EPs were applied for and granted only for the limited contract duration, this will not have a negative impact.
But if in doubt, it is better to explain this to MoM in detail!

Hi Noriel,

Please read this thread
https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=773390

noriel633

Hi.. actually I know about coverage or timeframe of the approval.. Just cannot check it myself coz i don't have fin number. Can you check it for me?

kalpesh154

Provide below info to check:

Passport Number
DOB

beppi

You should check it yourself, or ask the employer to check for you.
The FIN, once issued, is given to your employer and you should get it from them.

Hi,

Had applied EP on 26/11/2019,
I have a master's degree qualification.
Till now MOM didn't ask any query to my employer, But the status is still pending state.
Kindly seeking for advice.

Thank you.

noriel633

me too, Applied by my employer lasy 20th of Dec. no even pending status. It says error E0000236: no record found. I have talked someone here and he said maybe because it is festive season that is delay is expected. I don't know and I am not sure. I did not ask my employer about my fin they are in vacation.

beppi

Kajeshkamma: Please read the thread "How long will my work pass application take?" to understand the process and how long it might take.
If there is still no reply from Mom by two months after your application was submitted, yozr employer should contact MoM to find out more.

Noriel: Please read similar recent cases on the forum - it may take a week (and due to the holidays maybe longer) until your application shows up. If you still cannot see it after two weeks, you should ask your employer to contact MoM!

Thanks Beppi. All the best. God bless you!
