8-12 weeks is what’s mentioned on the MoM website, however, it could take just a few days, or on the flip side more than the above mentioned 8-12 weeks (if there is any additional request for information).

Important facts that may impact the time taken for approval- Depends also on where you have done your education, also if the university is in the drop down list on the MoM application submission website. Then there is the salary threshold, also the 1:3 ratio of expats vs locals, that the company needs to maintain.

If all is well, should be alright.

Thank you for your reply.

The pay is around 4000 sgd and i am not sure the quota, but i know the company is quite big with around 9000workers in Singapore.

I am a bit worry about possible rejection under the current covid situation in Singapore as MOM announced to reduce the number of foreigner workers.
