Let say I go out Singapore to Johor on Sunday. can I enter Singapore again next Wednesday. This interview really important to me as I have high chances to be hired. What should I do? Thank you.

Yes. You need to leave before your pass expires. Coming back shouldn't be an issue but you may not get 60 days for your new pass, depending on your visit record.

So how long should I stay at Johor before re-entering? Thank you.

Not sure, but have you tried applying for an online SVP extension? If possible it'd be far less hassle than the clear to see fact a few days in JB is just 'border-running' to try and get a renewed SVP.

"As long as possible" is the correct answer if you're going to attempt a "visa run."

Today I try to go out and re-enter. He only allow me for 2 days, so I forced to out since I need the balance day for Wednesday interview, the people told me if I go out today then I will only left one day... Anyone know how long should I stay at Jb before can re-enter Singapore?

If immigration only gave you two days the last time, you may well not be allowed back in when you are forced to leave. You see? You try to con the system, they are wise to it. It may well be 6 months or more before you are allowed back in. Hope you took your clothes and belonging with you.

Are you sure 6 months? How about visa run, how to do that?

So why did you ask how long to stay out if you weren't even going to take the advice given?

You already attempted a "visa run," badly, and failed.
