Thanks for your valuable suggestion. If my EP got approved, should i go back and come in again?

beppi

There is no need to do that, but you can if you want.

@Navi Pogs After reading the discussion above, what exactly is your question that is still not answered?

@beppi  thanks beppi! One more. I have pending application for epass. Its been 4weeks pending since they applied. On the 2nd week MOM requested documents from me. Today is my 4th week but still pending.


My concern was i really need a work. So im planning to accept a offer of other company which is spass. Can i ask to withraw my epass application so that they can apply my spass? Is this a wise decision? Bcos spass is more faster than epass approval. Im worried that my epass will takes a week or maybe a month.

@Navi Pogs While you may get S-Pass quicker, EP is more desired/ sought after by °µÍø½ûÇøs in SG. Nevertheless, it’s a decision you need to make- which job is better for you.

@Shekhz appreciated

I actually don't think an S-Pass is available faster than an EP - the application process for both is the same.

But cancelling an application half-way will add a (small) negative point to your profile (in MoM's eyes).
