Yea stil short waitin period ..mine is 15 months now

Good luck to u as well but 5 months I guess too soon to get an outcome. Mind sharing ur profile too?

Yes thts what I thought and did asked them back but no reply yet.

I guess the difference for me is I did not enter SG for quite some time already working from home

I dont think this is related to MCO or CB measure but tax related.it seems like there is tax implication if an EP holder stay in JB.

Thanks for reply. i wonder why my company tax team advice me to return to sg asap.

Yes I also never expect this would take more than 1 year. I guess it is because of my short stay in SG (applied after 6 months of salary).

My profile - Malaysian Chinese, 40, Male with family. In IT field with annual income ard $250k

Anyone here working in SG under EP but staying in JB? Do you or employer hav to pay tax in Malaysia? Thanks

Still pending 15 months now

Mine is 13 months

Yes I am referring to malaysian chinese:)

Very lucky..but i would say it does not apply to all Malaysian.some malaysian waited for more than a year but still pending..not sure wats the main criteria

So u r one of the cases which contradicts with the belief that 2 years min stay is required for approved application

Sorry to hear tht..dun give up

Yes its roughly 18 months I hav been in SG now..what do u think the chances for approval? I applied early before I got to know this forum and many ppl told me to apply quickly..some even applied wit 3 months payslips and no they arent rocket scientist or brain surgeon
