yes I would like to know the procedure to your above situation since I may be considering changing jobs30rocks wrote:Hi sms:
Thanks for the insight. indeed necessary to think twice before doing this. thank you.
but how about if after 8 months or 1 year? if I wish to change the job, what should be the procedure? should I resign, then let the current Employer to cancel my EP then apply again through new employer? or can I let new Employer to apply the EP for me first while I still hold EP under the current employer?

Thank you for the insight information, it is useful and will be careful on all the consequence.
I also understand the concern regarding to the short duration of the employment, but it is my humble opinion that it is not fair hold such prejudice on those who has shorter working duration unless you actually hear the reason behind, since, I have seen some were working on yearly contract basis, and did not extend further, some of them were because the company simply closed down, or got laid off due to their financially difficulties.
In my case, I gave up a good job from my own country for a job here in SG that they promised for international exposure and will allow me to handle challenging assignment. However, after almost 2 months passed, I am the only one got no job at all in the team. It is hard to feel easy to be the only one who got no assignment at all while your team mates are all very occupied. I indeed request for the job assignment, even my line manager felt my situation, and request it on my behalf, but somehow the management person is not willing to assign.
I don't know what's the reason behind, maybe the management person changes his mind of this employment and want to push me out or...? but similar as Grumpy77's opinion that if it takes 6 - 12 months to actually see the value of a employee, so, how can they reach this conclusion about me by only 1 month?
So after two months, you expect them to have vetted you to the point that you just claimed should tak 6-12 months? Seems like you operate with two different sets of standards. Additionally, in your initial post you did not indicate that your employer was trying to get rid of you. Now you are. Which is it? If you works much the same way as you give us data, I might understand your current employer's reluctance to give you free rein.
I like to work in Singapore, as much as I like this country, therefore, I really want to make sure the proper way to change job, and also as secure as possible![]()

Regarding to your instruction, does it mean that, if the new employer is ok with it, I can request the new employer to apply EP for me first and hand in the resignation and serve notice with the current employer ONLY AFTER I make sure that I got the new EP approved with the new employer?
and once noticed is served with the current employer, old EP card will be returned, then go receive the new EP card with the new IAP letter issued by the new employer?
Correct
Thank you all,
