FDW work permit expiring wants to transfer

Post by Samsam26 » Mon, 10 Feb 2020 3:06 pm

FDW1 wants to transfer. Her WP is expiring on 28-Feb, 2020.
You are the EA.
EmployerB confirmed her today. EmployerB is on EP earning SGD15,000 a month, married with 1 child (both dependant pass holder). Family is renting HDB 3-Room (not co-sharing). Employer B only started working in Singapore last December 2019.

The current EmployerA can only release FDW1 on 28-Feb 2020. EmployerB can wait.

As an EA, what will you do to make sure that you can successfully do the transfer of FDW1 by 28-February 2020.

1. Family B need to have done the FDW training.
2. Family B log into the MOM WP online system and lodge a transfer request. Family B need to arrange FDW insurance as well.
3. Family A approve it.

IT's not too complicated but there are a couple of traps. It might be easier to use an agent to do the transfer. I've done it a few times and MOM are helpful if you make a mistake.
I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!
