EP Application Status March 2022

My employer applied employment pass on Mar 4 2022, I checked EP Oline it showed "we need inputs from. " last week, but it updates as "pending" from this week.

It's been almost 3 weeks, so troublesome.

Anyone gets your ep during March?

Would you mind sharing your timeline?

Hope we all receive our ep soon.

My employer applied on February 22, 2022, and I still haven't got an answer.

The status remains "pending", and no sources verification has been needed so far.

From previous comments in this forum, the processing time varies significantly, and there seems not to be a pattern.

Let's hope for the best.

4-6 weeks, even 8 weeks is the norm, some get approved quicker. Have patience please.

I wonder if the longer waiting time affect how the employer treat us… would they cancel the offer? Do they usually wait for us onboarding until the ep is issued?

Phoebeeee: An EPis always issued just before employement starts. If you want to know how your employer will react to long processing times, ask them (not us)!

22/03/2022: EP application submitted
29/03/2022: we need inputs from other agencies .

I've read some replies about this status, some of them require document verification and some of them got approved without any additional tasks. Do we really need education document verification?

Below is is my situation.

Applied: 14th Jan

Rejected: 21st Jan (Need justification for higher salary and company financial statements)

Appeal1: provided all documents on 10th Feb due to unseen delays from HR

Status was still rejected in the ep online ( i think this is okay right . )

10th March: MoM asked for educational Background verification signed up for RMI verification process on the same day.

30th March: RMI says accredition check is done, education verification is in progress.

Hoping to get the final rmi report soon and awaiting approval.

Would like to hear if you faced same situaton and got it approved.. some motivation is highly needed for me now

All your inputs are highly appreciated thank you

Working with a startup in india outsourced to a major priviate software company in SG

salary hike: ~55%

does this salary hike considerably high? it's a bit high bcs there's a different pay range between my home country & SG, would this affect the approval? how long does it usually take to appeal due to the high salary hike?

One weird thing is that my employer applied employment pass for me, but it showcases as S Pass and status as "Rejected".

I was quite anxious this time as it was pending for almost 4 weeks. Though I cannot be sure why it took a bit longer, I'm assuming it was because the name of my current employer on my resume didn't match the name MOM had on record. I'm currently employed under an agency but working for a client overseas. I had the client name on my resume but the agency name on my current EP. So I resubmitted my resume with the agency as my employer and the contract letter justifying the structure and relationship between all 4 different parties: myself, client, agency and recruiter. Again, I don't know why it took longer. It's just my assumption since I was asked for my updated resume listing down all my previous and present employments.

My takeaway: always double check the name of your employers, period worked, title and country of employment (if applicable)
