EP Approved DP Pending (Update: Approved!)

Post by yibs » Fri, 16 Dec 2011 5:33 pm

Hi guys,

My EP has been approved but my spouse's DP still 'Pending inputs from vetting agencies. Expected outcome is 2 months from the date of application'. Is that normal?

I lodged my EP and my spouse's DP application at the same time (i.e., under my application).

Shouldn't my spouse's DP be approved automatically or at the same time as mine?

A bit confused here.

Thanks in advance for your advise.

Cheers!

Prior to your approval, did you also have "Pending input from vetting agency"? We have seen this before, where it takes a while before the DP online update is put in after the EP approval. Give it some time (maybe a week?) and then I'd call MOM to politely inquire.

Yes, I also had the same status prior to approval. Thanks SMS!
