Much to your dismay, if your employer applied for an S pass you probably do not qualify for an EP. Any normal employer would apply for the EP if you qualified for it (both academically/experience wise and remuneration being offered). It would not make sense to apply for an S pass as they, if given, will pay more in Levies (up to $650/mo) whereas there are no levies for the EP. Also, normally an employer when applying for an EP, should always check the box where it asks 'if the employee does not qualify for the EP, do you want to consider them for a S pass. (If that box isn't checked, then if you don't qualify for the EP, you are stuck as the employer cannot go back and reapply for the S pass - must have the box checked on the initial application. If not the only way is to try to get a job with a different employer.
With the employer not knowing that he didn't have quota (stupid employer you want to work for, I must say as normally any HR department would check their quota before applying), you sure you want to work for what sounds like a rinky-dink outfit?
As to your FIN number, it is permanent. Every application you fill with the MOM will have the same FIN number attached to it. It's permanent for life or until you become a PR/Citizen. At that time and only that time will be be exchanged for a NRIC number. Even if you come back and file 10 years later you will still have the same FIN number.
