Since no replies yet, let me drop you some pointers: MOM knows that it is common ruse for those who got rejected for S pass applying for E Pass with the pay difference paid back ....xion05 wrote:Hi,
Pls suggest something for my friend's problem.
He got a job but his S'pass was rejected.
Because company has no quota for S'pass.
So, they want to appeal and request to consider EP.
Is it possible?
If not, what should b the procedure to get work pass for him?
Thanks for any reply.
Atleast, once, before I got my blue IC, I was caught up with a silly employer, who kept insinuating that the problem was with me, and when I managed to seek the duty officer, he reviewed the company CPF contribution form, and asked mildy "am I supposed to believe that the company pays 4 staff just 600 $ a month when even coffee shop aunty gets paid more than that ? It is obvious that your boss inflated the local ratio .. "sundaymorningstaple wrote:If their turnover is rather high (like our is) it's often difficult and the quota's are determined by the previous three month's running average (kind of like the Prevailing COE premiums) but not including the month just finished. So it does get rather aggravating at times. A lot also depend on the dependency ratios as, depending on the quantity of staff they have (Local/PR's) the dependency ratio may well leave them with fractionated quotas, and you can never tell which way MOM is going to go.
predating phantom workers - the others on the payroll didn't have any other job - just on the payroll, like his Sister, mother, cousin etc. etc ..sundaymorningstaple wrote:The phenomenon is known as "phantom workers".
I guessed sometime manpower agent tried to collect some money from disqualified applicant as part of handling fee in advance and need a MOM rejection form to be given back to applicant without refund.ecureilx wrote:xion05 wrote:Hi,
I am a bit lost as to why the employer didn't know they didn't have any more quota ..
Not sure about your statement, but as much as there dirty agents, there are enough honest agents, who would have made the same mistake - and some employers are good in making up 'numbers' and agents don't know until the paperwork goes in ..

Not entirely true KSL, even if the applicant Uni is on MOM list. Malay workers getting EP is far more difficult comparing to sifting thru the soil for dinosaurs' bones.ksl wrote:Some Malay workers with degree are being rejected S pass, but are getting work permits, probably because the degree is not excepted. EP or S is not likely unless it is an established university on the Singapore list of accepted universities.
