Good day to all!
I have a concern regarding on my Employment Pass application.
This is the current situation:
- I am a foreigner holding a social visit pass that will expires on April 26.
- I've been acquired by a company here in Singapore and I already signed their job offer to me last Friday (April 15).
- Last Friday, I also fill up the application for my Employment Pass.
This is my concerns:
- I only have 11 days left based on my current Social Visit Pass, do I need to apply it for an extension?
- If my In-Process Approval Letter arrived, is it valid to extend my Social Visit Pass until my Employment Pass Card will be released?
Thank you for all your answers and time for reading this!

Yes, you need to extent go to E-VP website , do it online. Max you can extend is 60 days more
- If my In-Process Approval Letter arrived, is it valid to extend my Social Visit Pass until my Employment Pass Card will be released?
Once you have AIP , exchange your SVP to EP Pass. Meantime you need SVP to allow you to be in Singapore
BTW this questions have been posed many a times , look it up byt clicking the search button at the top right hand corner under the profile link

Thank you for the reply...
I already extend my SVP for 60 days...
If I already received my IPA, can i still apply for an extension for at least 2 weeks just to wait my E-PASS to be approved??..
Does ICA will grant me an extension??

Hello ?? I am missing something .. IPA IS THE E PASS per se ..
why you need to wait for the E-Pass collection unless you have some hidden agenda ??
Sorry, I am confused ..
