Hai Guys…Can anyone confirm me, how much time it takes to  ‘Pass approval stage’ to “Pass issuance stage’ for EP – category -2 application. Around two months there is no change of Status. However, Some of my colleagues EP category -1 application got approved…If anyone knows anything related this issues , kindly share..

Due to MCO ESD not entertain direct walk-in, so for everything that goes on the online submission, it will take 2 to 3months time duration to get an appointment and visa endorsement. if you are in Malaysia it will consider under the visa category.

Hai Mr. Vasu , Noted for your reply. However my issue is my EP Visa has been applied around 6 months back and i am stranded in India....Long time there is no status change in progress.. Up till recently one month back My visa status changed as "Pass approval stage"...now again there is no change....My Employer confirmed me that once the status changed to "Pass Issuance stage" then only they can proceed my further activities...Now, i don't know how long it will take for "Pass approval stage" to "Pass issuance stage". Since , some of colleagues staying in Malaysia got approved.

Hi Muthukumar now am understand your situation. after covid Malaysian government has not entertained foreign workers so for you getting late. if you are already in Malaysia means a different scenario so for your colleagues easily get visa approval. but you are going to enter Malaysia it will take time-based on border open.

Thank you for your reply Mr.Vasu....If you know further anything related this, please do inform me...Hope Malaysia will lift the ban soon...Thank you
