Expiring Social Visit Pass

Post by ice_coolet » Wed, 20 Apr 2011 4:07 pm

I have one concern...

I already received my In-Process Approval Letter from MOM...
I have to apply it to obtain my E-PASS card, am i right??..
But I have expiring Social Visit Pass, which it will last until April 26...

Do I need to extend my social visit pass?
Or if a apply my IPA to MOM for my E-PASS card, MOM will automatically
adjust for my SVP?

You will not complete the process by the 26th, see the process for employment pass collection below

http://www.mom.gov.sg/foreign-manpower/ ... collection

You need to get yourself down to the ICA with your AIP letter and they will probably give you another 30 day stamp so you can complete your EP collection.

I already did that but ICA didn't allow me to extend my SVP...

Looking back at the other thread you started you forgot to mention you've already extended your SVP once so the ICA wouldn't extend again. You will have leave Singapore, not entirely sure if you will have to remain outside Singapore for at least 5 days before coming back as you have an AIP letter.

Only the ICA can grant you permission to stay in Singapore, a company definitelt can't

If this is not too late for me to say....


You can just go to MOM. Present your IPA and ask them to extend your stay. Usually, they stamp 2 week extension for you.

Good Luck!

Well, Jack,

You really blew that one. It's obviously too late. You must be posting for post count only. Posting after business hours on the day his SVP expires and telling him to go to MOM? Are you foreign talent? Or local. :roll:

Yup. Boom-boom received. :D
And nope, I wasn't after the post count.
If you like, please delete it.
Tks.

FT or local?
Does it matter?
