As expected, it was REJECTED on 23 Aug 2020 because:
"If your candidate is currently in Singapore, you may wish to submit an appeal for our consideration. Otherwise, you may wish to apply again when the additional safe distancing measures are lifted."
My employer said they will send an appeal when government move on to Phase 3 and that rules are less strict now but no confirmation yet.
1) Status : Pending
2) Date of application : 18/08/20
3) Date of result : N/A
4) Industry : Chemical (Engineering)
I have an S Pass application and not an E Pass application, but can help.
1) Status : Rejected
2) Date of application : 17/08/20
3) Date of result : 28/08/20
4) Industry : IT
My employer will reappeal, but just isn't sure if whether they should do it now or when Phase 3 is already in place in Singapore.
Currently I am outside SG. If my new employer applies for EP will my old employer knnow (while applying for my entry approval?)
Hi,
Just an update from my previous post. My rejection was due to Covid. They can only reappeal once measures are lifted in SG.
Not sure if there are other here who had the same reason but were able to reappeal successfully. But if you did, please let us know.

Thanks for the update, maybe I have the same reason. Which country are you from?

The Philippines.
Thanks for the update guys.
May I ask you if you are moving from Philippines to Singapore with the same company or is it a new company that you are working with in Singapore ?
And you Heripaski?

I am moving from the Philippines to Singapore (I am currently outside the Philippines). It's also my first job there.
Ok, thanks.
I was working in France (I am french) and moved to india with the same company and now got an offer in Singapore with still the same company (french company). Today it seems my company wants to wait before applying to visa, may be wait until phase 3 has been reached.
Let's keep in touch

We're in the same boat! Yes, they also wanted me to wait for Phase 3 before reapplying. Sure, just shoot a msg!
I'm from Indonesia.
Move from the same company
But, when will phase 3 started?
It begins once vaccines available and border open, isn't it?

Do you know the reason of the rejection? Are you also outside SG? If your company appealed, what did they say?
According to the government website, there is the information below
"Phase Three (Safe Nation) : This will be the ‘new normal’ for Singapore, as we expect to remain at this state until an effective vaccine or treatment for COVID-19 is developed. "
So I guess, the phase 3 can begin before a vaccine, may be in a few weeks/months when there will be 0 cases in Singapore and a situation more in the control accross the world.
Let's unite the strengths and put the filipian, indonesian, french spirit and all the other nationalities together to get this visa!

The reason for rejection was individual eligible, and my employer said it's hard to appeal with that reason. Anyone has the same issue like me?

Hi, mind to share your info more detail?
1.How long your work experience
2.Which University you graduated
3. Range salary
4. Are you transfer under ICT (intra-corperate transferee)
Hi Furre,
Why are you asking the .4? Do you think it is an advantage to be under ICT to get the visa?

Hi benoit_lh,
According to my HR (not official from MOM), there is an advantage for those who apply EP under ICT slot because it's clearly that the job/position is not for Singaporean. Meaning that we are not competing or taking any opportunity for Singaporean during this hard time
Hi Furre
Thanks for details
Just to be sure on the process, what is exactly the diference between individual eligible and under ICT?
I have been working for the same company for 5 years, respectively in france, India and soon (hopefully) in Singapore. Does it mean my employer will apply throught ICT?
