well from what i know is yes u need to notify them, i dont know how to do it though. mayb juz ask ur HR or give MOM a call ?

Hi. I'm new to here.
It seems that you are in the accounting line in Singapore. Wanna ask whether is Big4 SG hiring Malaysians too? How much does typical Malaysian stand a chance over there, say after getting an ACCA? Thanks.

guys....anyone of you working in Benchmark, AMK site?
Wondering how's the environment there....

why we have to inform MOM? i just renewed my passport last week, i never inform HR, I don't even bother to inform MOM?

when u renew ur passport u wil get a new passport number, no? they gonna scan u work pass n passport at custom, so who knows what happen when there's a mismatch.

Come on! What kind of EP you are holding? Why immigration officer scan both of your passport and EP? Im EP holder but custom never scan my passport, they just scan my EP..

well u're right they dont scan the passport, but they do check it, dont they.

Your EP is tied to a travel document ie. passport. If the particular passport that the EP is issued under is invalid (expired), then the EP is invalid until it is transferred to the new passport.

Even our REPs (Re-Entry Permits for PRs) are the same.

the REP for PR can be done online and get the passport stamp at Immigration when leaving Sg. Can work permit do the same ?

You actually don't have to get the passport physically stamped. The REP details will be referenced whenever the passport is keyed in or scanned.

tq tq... i didnt gfet to read papers... was in indo... lol

got bumper mer?

yea... my friend from monash with so so results is in ey...

she doesnt have acca, only a business degree...

ermm.. acca is not that attractive in sg... but no harm trying

Yes they do, in fact Malaysian stand a pretty fair chance in getting employed in one of the Big4s over here, be it in a fresh graduate position or experienced hire. However, one thing to note though, they do place quite a lot of emphasis on the candidate being a uni graduate.

On a side note, you most likely won't make it into their main intake for this year (July - Sept), but I think there will be a smaller intake around Dec, just keep a look out on the firms' recruitment website.

those who work in apple sg, any one hasn't use up their employee purchase program quota? any discount for laptop?

you can PM me what you want

Checked with MoM and here is part of their response:

1) For holders of the Long Term Pass Card
To notify MOM Work Pass Division using the Request Form for Amendment of
Personal Particulars.

2) For holders of the laminated Disembarkation/Embarkation Card (Green
Card)
Employment Pass Holders transfer their Employment Pass endorsements to the
new travel document.
These documents must be submitted to MOM Work Pass Division for the
transfer:
- Disembarkation/Embarkation card (Green Card); and
- Employment Pass holder's old and new travel documents or passports

For more information, you may visit MOM?s website at:
http://www.mom.gov.sg/foreign-manpower/pas...traveldocchange

The old passport number will be written at the back page of your new passport.

but the scanning system can only scan first page of passport and match it with your EP. First scan sure fail then the officer have to do it manually or ask you to go office. Waste your time time.

Mind asking, so so, means?


Hmm... Looks like a have to try my luck without giving high hopes in S'pore. Thanks for replying =)

i just renewed my passport last week back in Penang, when i came in to Singapore, immigration scanned my EP, no issue..

Update us when you exit singapore again.

I renewed mine a last apr, they check my old passport when I first enter SG with the new passport and ask me to do online re-entry permit update before my next exit.
