SPass Rejection and Appeal

My SPass was first applied on 18 March and was rejected on the 28th of March. The reason for rejection was about the job posting.

The job posting has to be in the jobs bank for 28 days before I can be applied an SPass for the position. Since there was only 1 reason for rejection, I assume that we only need to fulfill the waiting time of 28 days for the job posting to be in the jobs bank. So after 28 days that the job posting was in the jobs bank, we applied for an appeal the next day. We attached a link of the job posting.

It has been a week since the appeal. I wonder if there could be any reasons that I get rejected. I was told that we only need to address the reason for rejection because all the other aspects already passed the assessment and if the reason for rejection was fulfilled, the application should be approved.

And for this kind of matter, how long will the appeal be processed? I have worked in Singapore since 2012 and I have had my fair share of approvals and rejections in various companies. What are the chances that my appeal will be approved?

Applications are reviewed all over again, MoM may come back with an approval or an additional information ask with a time duration for you to furnish the info. Should be a smooth sail if you have been around and the company has provided all basic information. However, if they missed the basic element of posting the job for 28 days before applying, just shows that the submitter is inexperienced.

@mavenda every application gets assigned to a case/ application officer. Appeals usually take 4-8 weeks per MoM website, but if all is well, appeals get an outcome within 4 weeks utmost.
