Certainly I would like to say that if your employer go with new IPA approval then chances are higher that MoM will approve it because the fact is that you were selected based on their approval criteria. I do understand that due to pandemic situation the rules are now tight which is closely monitored by the MoM ministry but same time if your skills are in demand then your new application would be successful.

On phase 3, which will starts from 28 Dec is more giving relaxation of day to day activities and open up the business locally here. Govt has created corridors for business travellers, there will be some relaxation for applicants who have IPA letters or EP holders who are stuck outside of Singapore and not able to come in as ICA denied their entry. Again it depends how the things are shaping in future.

We have learned that super spreader of Covid-19 spotted in UK and SA are the concerns which potentially lead to more travel ban and scrutiny to allow foreigners entering into Singapore. Hope things gets better. Good luck
