Student Pass Appeal

JenAb · 2021-08-05T16:05:15+02:00

My daughter's student's pass application got rejected recently as she was starting her MBA courses in the same university she completed her undergraduate degree. She turned 21 this year which made her lose DP status. Initially, she got student's pass for 4 months to complete bridging courses for MBA. Now that she needed to reapply for student's pass to move up to MBA, ICA rejected it without giving reason. We have submitted a letter of appeal via the university but are afraid of the outcome. Q1: Does anyone know how appeals work in ICA? If it is rejected again, is there a chance to re-appeal and can it be done in ICA office? I do not know if the school is doing everything to help the students in this matter. :( Q2: Also, I am concerned that her current STVP will expire before ICA provides the decision for the appeal. I have no idea about STVP extensions since my daughter has been studying here since high school and we've never experienced this before. Do we get only 30 days? Q3: Does it make sense to hire a professional immigration consultant for this kind of case? I googled such and found only PR related consultants. I hope someone can give me some advice or words of encouragement. Thank you.

@Pinnaduwage Chanchlala Rather than a strong appeals letter, you need a correct attendance sheet. Thus ask your school for one and submit it!

Hi,

I am from Myanmar, I have been working in SG for 6 years. Recently, my husband's student pass was rejected without any reason.

But I informed the school and they say they will submit an appeal. The processing takes 4~6 weeks and the course starts in May 2024

I feel so helpless, anyone advise here, please?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, I just got a reply from ICA for the appeal letter of my husband from the school. It says they are unable to accept the appeal letter. Can I redo the appeal letter by ourself?

If anyone knows about this, appreciate your advice.

thank you..

@yaminthazin01 I believe you only have one chance for an appeal. If that is rejected, the decision is final.

Furthermore, if even the school's letter is not sufficient, what do you think you can write that would convince ICA?
