I have apply a PRC worker on MOM website.
And the IPA was approve on the actual day after i submit the apply.
Arrange the worker to fly over to Singapore after the security Bond had approval.
Was given 14days stay in Singapore.
3 days later found out the IPA was Revoke reason given due of the worker past record which was nearly 3 years ago.
I want to ask the following questions:
1. why the MOM still approve the IPA when they say that the worker had past record?
2.Now with all my business are in order and this worker is able to settle my order issue.what should i do to get this worker back?
Can anyone assist me with the above issue as i need the worker back asap.
Thanks

The worker was given an IPA. That stands for "In-Principle Approval". It is not a guarantee that the potential employee will be given a work permit. The work permit is subject to a number of things including the results of the medical, workers record & Immigration issues. If the worker was here before, his record would be recalled and any issues would be noted - if it wasn't disclosed on the workers application for the permit, it would be found upon arrival when passport numbers and other data are checked in MOM's database.
Reapplying, unless something has changed recently, will be basically an exercise in futility. This especially so with the current economic crisis making it even harder for foreigners to come here without any priors.

And seriously that this worker is needed for my production.
Any other way that i can solve ths issue?
