Go to the top of the thread and read the whole thread. If you still haven't figured it out, maybe you shouldn't be coming to Singapore at all. IPA's are NOT sent without a FIN number on them. If you get one, then your agent is going to screw you left, right and center. Read the thread and learn.

The agent said you have to pay some amount then after the stamping and clearance of Indian Embassy the they Upload your IPA in to MOM then You can Check. How can I trust them ? Is it true ?

read my post two posts above your post. I suggest you would be better off just staying in India, truth be known. They will eat you alive here, just like your agents are trying to do in India.

You are about to get screwed if you pay the money.

This is a common cheating tactic by agents to get money. If you don't get IPA with your name on it and FIN number on it, and they ask you to pay for it, then very likely you legally do not have anything and they're trying to cheat your money. A proper agent will already be ready to hand you a full IPA letter, no hiding name or FIN number etc because that means you have clearance to work in Singapore already.

Hi, My IPA letter is Approved but the IPA letter that i received from my company HR didnt show FIN number. My HR able to provide me the fin number(and it's valid too). But when i ask for the IPA letter that include the Fin Number he then say dont have, Even he tried to redownload from mom website. Can anyone explain to me? As i need to rent a room in, the landlord agent told me that he need IPA letter with fin number.
