Congrats to everyone who has PR application approved! It's been years since I was here to find out possible reasons why my Work Pass application rejected twice. 2016 and here I am, holding PR for more than 2 years already. I hope my story could encourage those who are still waiting for the PR approv...

Hey guys! I just got the PR IPA letter and ICA instructed me to complete the formality online. However, there is column that says "File Reference No. : ICA/ENT/" needed to be filled. I've tried that with my IC no., application no. (PRS-2013-xxxx) and date of application. But all seems invalid. I've...

U mean the tuition grant? It has clauses and conditions in which I obliged to work after my study. I signed it when I start my study in poly 3 years ago...

Would suggest you to read the Service Obligation document again. It states what would be the terms if you are unable to obtain a job in SG. Read that document again. Good Luck ! Read already... In short, If we are unable to obtain employment we should inform government immediately. And If we are un...

Hi frekedech, what did the MOE say? update us if you have check with them. Thanks. MOE will escalate it to their officers and give me an appeal letter in 2 weeks, not much help there although they give me case number so I could check with them again. Not satisfied, then I went to MOM and ask them w...

Thanks for the update

Which part of moe and mom did u go to? I was thinking to make a trip there too.

Maybe we can contact each other for updates

MOE enquiry is at podium, ground level. MOM I only went in and the receptionist helped me.

Sure, I will send my email to your inbox.

Mad Scientist: Thanks for your honest opinion. I'm still weighing my options on what I should do next. Frekedech: really? let me know what kind of answer did you get if possible? Hi, just went to MOE and MOM this afternoon. MOE will review my case and produce the appeal letter in 2 weeks time (not ...

I think all foreign students Spass/EP applications are mostly being rejected recently. Same case as me... I'm now stuck with 3-yr bond and rejected EP application. :( If I may suggest, try to get her tuition grant letter and enquire MOE (since the grant is from them) about this issue. I'm going to d...

This is starting to feel a bit ominous to me. I'm seeing more and more of these cases. It's interesting as I'm wondering if the Gahmen are planning on biting the bullet some more and just wiping the slates clean? Letting you finish your educations, if you can't find a job (no experience) good luck ...

Thanks for the reply. Company's HR told me there is no reason. My ethnicity is Chinese. It got rejected on the same day as the application date. I am currently on student pass and expiring in about 3 weeks time. Based on the qualification i have, i should be able to get the EP. Could it mismatch of...

Hi, may i know whats the basic salary given to you? my employer offered me 1.7k and employment pass, but the application was rejected straight away by MOM. FYI, my employer is one of the sg telco and I'm Indonesian chinese poly graduate with 3-year bond. There is a min salary for S Pass. From memor...
