If Spass is rejected

Post new topic

Hi there,

If your spass is rejected then you are planning to go back to Singapore to find another job again. What are your chances that you are going to allow to enter the country? Will they refuse your entry? Does they see your rejected application?

Or is it better to go back to Singapore while your pass is on process so that if you are rejected, atleast you are already in Singapore to find job

Thank you

Whether your pass is pending or rejected, how it would give you assurance that you can stay in Singapore to find a job? In both scenarios, you will be holding tourist visa for 30 days. In most of cases, further extension won’t be granted by ICA.

Going back to your first question, whether you can travel Singapore after S pass application was rejected or not? Yes, you can travel as a tourist like how you did travel earlier. MoM might have shared your pass application rejection outcome with ICA. Be careful, don’t travel too often to Singapore for searching a job, as it could lead to ICA to refuse your entry into Singapore. Good luck

Thank you Surya for responding. But in Immigration, when they scanned your passport, will they see your rejected spass application? And with that, will they refuse your entry? Thank you

Yes, they can see history of a person and MoM & ICA share information to each other. If MoM shared your details with ICA, then they can easily figure out why you are visiting Singapore many times. Avoid it, cause if they refuse your entry into Singapore then your data would be in blacklist, will hamper your chance more in future.
